Creator's Key Takeaways

if somebody texts you on a Sunday night at 7 00 pm and you're free you know to respond I'm not gonna wait till Monday at 9 00 a.m to respond to a text message

they are very impressed when Sunday morning they say hey Steve we're thinking about a new river cruise on the Rhine next year what do you suggest and within five minutes I'm sending them an email
