Why would your initial contact to someone for a cake be via TEXT MESSAGE?!??! Why would you ASSume that it's a cell phone. I say ASSume because theres no missed phone call so you didn't call first. I wonder if I can text a pizza shop to make an order.
Lets see how that would work:
My Text.....Hi, I'd like a pepperoni pizza and an order of 10 garlic knots, a 2 liter soda preferably Pepsi. I need this for tomorrow OKAY? Thanks!
Pizzerias Response: NONE!! Cause I can't text them!
Alright, maybe it is a cell phone, who's to say theres a text package on there? Maybe there's something wrong and the person can't get texts. Why would you in turn CALL asking "Hey, did you get my text last week?(true story) Ooohhh and lets not forget about the ones, who continuously send text messages and NEVER receive a response! Don't you think you should check in? Backwards? Quite possibly. Am I judging? Most definitely!
Look at it this way, 9x's out of 10 even if you have your bosses cell phone number, you wouldn't TEXT him to say "Hey, I'm going to be late" or "Hey, I have a hangover and can't come in". You're going to call and speak with someone or at least leave a voicemail. That's proper business procedure.
Ordering a cake is a business transaction and should be thought of in that way.
DONE....(grab your cell phone smash it up against the wall!)
