Zut alors, Busty gets an offer she simply can’t refuse

busty idolMangetout, mangetout. Yep, you guessed it, I have been brushing up on my French in anticipation of next month’s Decision Marketing busman’s holiday. Not that I have given up all hope of a better offer but us girls always need a back-up plan…
In the meantime, I have taken on some private tuition from Pierre, a marketing graduate who is having the summer off by working at my local French Brasserie before he gets a proper job.
Admittedly, I am not learning much of the lingo because he has spent most of the time with his tongue down the back of my throat but I am certainly getting a taste for Gallic charm. His coq au vin is delicious, while his saucisson is to die for.
The trouble is, I have been enjoying his company so much that my work is suffering. I just can’t seem to concentrate on the day job.
Luckily, help is at hand from someone called Olga, who is a business development manager at an online marketing firm with, in her words, “over ten years of experience in the domain”.
Anyway, she emailed me to say she was on the site and, “couldn’t help noticing that it lacked quality content. Content in any online marketing magazine is one of the most crucial factors to make it a success. However, in your case the content is not good”.
She added: “We can help you with that. Allow me to offer you our web copywriting services. We work hard to deliver a hassle free and time bound service to our clients so that they don’t have to wait forever for a content piece. We also guarantee that they will be perfectly tailored to your audience.”
Zut alors, I thought, what could be better? As Pierre said, with a beaming smile on his face: “Olga est probablement analphabète, mais personne ne remarque la différence parce que vous êtes aussi gros qu’un embarras.”
I have no idea what he was talking about but in his accent it sounded good to me.
