In the Hallmark Channel TV movie Christmas Incorporated, Riley Vance (Shenae Grimes-Beech) is a young woman who’s struggling to pay her bills in New York City. She miraculously gets a job with William Young, a wealthy entrepreneur but he’s “a bad-boy socialite type” who doesn’t understand how his business transactions affect the people around him. When he decides to close one of his factories just before Christmas — “I don’t celebrate Christmas,” he says — it’s up to Riley to talk him out of it.
