The bakery's website: ordering a cake

  1. 1

    What I need you to decide

    Is this how you want people to order a cake from your website?

    More

    A small website: the cakes you make, one page per cake, and an order form with a pickup day. Orders reach you by email, and a day you are fully booked cannot be picked. Nothing is built yet: every page is a sketch.

  2. 2

    My recommendation

    Keep it to four pages and take payment at pickup at first.

    More

    A website that only takes orders can be live in a week; online payment can come once people use it.

  3. 3

    What I'll ask

    5 questions in 2 parts.

    Ordering a cakeHow people pay

  4. 4

    What could go wrong

    Without a deposit, some people will order and not come.

    More

    A reminder email the day before cuts that down; a deposit stops it.

    • The pickup days must match your real week. If the calendar is out of date, the website promises cakes you cannot make.
