“They love your ‘Twelve Days of Christmas’ angle,” my supervisor texted with a grinning emoji. “On the eighth day of Christmas…there was no partridge in a pear tree, but there was a Kia Sorento.” LOL. Another home run! It seemed my idea to weave car models into the carol was just the latest success. It was witty, a touch cheesy, and apparently struck the perfect balance of fun and informative for the client.
