"Text messaging saves lives - could it save your business ??

This is a story about two climbers, stranded on Mont Blanc who summoned the rescue services by texting a friend back home in the UK.

Ok - I may be exaggerating when I say 'save your business' - you may be doing ok; hopefully, you may be doing well - but do you want to do even better? Stupid question because of course you do.
