Vivianne felt a thrill so palpable that she began to cry. She focused on every positive keyword that spoke directly to her, the ones that affirmed what she already knew to be true about herself. Stardom. Exclusive. Success. Unique talent. This was it. Her big break had finally arrived! She clicked the link to the company’s website and combed every page, her heart soaring as she read the testimonials, many of them from some of the most famous influencers and personalities that she followed and wished to imitate.
VixyViv quickly filled out the client query form, including the “exclusive premium client code” that Mr. Baker had included in the email. She clicked the submit button and was taken to a white thank you page that stated, “Good girl! A representative will be in touch soon!”
Vivianne spent the day in eager anticipation, drifting from store to store, until she found the perfect, sexy dress that she’d, undoubtedly, need for her meeting with the representative. She even helped herself to a large latte with a couple extra pumps of vanilla, and then tweeted about how lacking the service was, failing to tip the barista. Caught up in her daydream, she simply lounged around her little apartment, waiting for the contact. It came late in the day, another email with a calendar appointment at an office downtown. The appointment was scheduled for the next day. She quickly accepted.
