Has anyone experienced or heard of regional differences in business practices within the United States?

Question

I'm am working on a project and need some help. Business practices covers anything that can come under that, most importantly customer service, thank you.

Answer 1

I doubt there is much difference because most (large) companies have similar manuals for the whole US.

Some interesting changes:

- investors (in private equity so people who are making substantial investments in a few unlisted companies) in California (Berkeley) are taking much more risks compared to their colleagues at the East coast (Harvard) which are more risk adverse. West Coast = wealth creating; East coast = wealth preserving.
