invoke one script based on previous script execution

I am database guy and not very good at shell scripts. I am seeking help to sharp my script coding. I have 5 scripts

1. master script. I use this one to call other four scripts to do database work.
2. db_backup_1 and log_backup_1
3. db_backup_2 and log_backup_2

in master script, I want to call db_backup_1 first. If this one run successfully, then server return 0, then invoke log_backup_1. If it failed, return 1, a email will be sent to me.

Then sleep 30 seconds

invoke db_backup_2, if it is succesul, return 0, invoke log_backup_2. If failed, return 1, another email will be sent to me.

My initial code like this. I know it must contains problems. I seek guru to help me to sharp this piece of code and make it work. Then I will do my test.

#!/bin/ksh

./db_backup_1.sh &
pid_db_backup_1=$!
wait $pid_db_backup_1
echo "db_backup_1 returned $?"
If ["$?" -eq "0" ]; then
./log_backup_1.sh &
else
mail -s 'db_backup_1 Unsuccessful' mymail@yahoo.com
fi

sleep 30

./db_backup_2.sh &
pid_db_backup_2=$!
wait $pid_db_backup_2
echo "db_backup_2 returned $?"
If ["$?" -eq "0" ]; then
./log_backup_2.sh &
else
mail -s 'db_backup_2 Unsuccessful' mymail@yahoo.com
fi

exit 0

thank you for your help in advance.

CALIBRE-SMTP(1) 						      calibre							   CALIBRE-SMTP(1)

NAME

       calibre-smtp - part of calibre

SYNOPSIS

       calibre-smtp  [options] [from to text]

DESCRIPTION

       Send  mail using the SMTP protocol. calibre-smtp has two modes of operation. In the compose mode you specify from to and text and these are
       used to build and send an email message. In the filter mode, calibre-smtp reads a complete email message from STDIN and sends it.

       text is the body of the email message.  If text is not specified, a complete email message is read from STDIN.  from is the  email  address
       of the sender and to is the email address of the recipient. When a complete email is read from STDIN, from and to are only used in the SMTP
       negotiation, the message headers are not modified.

       Whenever you pass arguments to calibre-smtp that have spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks.
