Valerie, where are you?

Juniper2 — Tue, 24 Sep 2019 19:12:49 GMT

When did Valerie turn into Rick Domier? She used to be so calming and enjoyable to watch --very low key. She seems more hyper to me today.

It may not be anything serious. Could be she's just having an off day, like anyone else.

I think she decided to stand up for herself and she likes how it feels, they are all under pressure to make those sales.

She was real calm and kept Rick on his best behavior when I saw them on in July or Aug early Christmas show. Maybe her sales were off. It seems as though all the Hosts and alot of the vendors are going Hyper these days. Bet ya , the sales quotas are off. The cost of electricity and water bills and just running ahousehold are pretty high these days . Let's not even go into the price of colleges ...

I noticed that today too when I watched her for awhile when Carolyn was hosting. She was indeed way more animated and faster talking than usual. I watched during the portion when they were showing little sparkly trees and they took a "secret passage" (according to Valerie) to another part of the display. Maybe she felt she had to get a step ahead and keep a step ahead of Carolyn because if given the chance she can easily run roughshod right over the vendors.

The air of desperation to sell things has certainly been spreading on QVC.

She must have a new house to pay for.

I absolutely adore Valerie and have for years. I decorate for the holidays with many of her items and can never resist the urge to buy something when she visits. It was a morning show and could simply have been an extra cup of coffee or two. I still thought she did an amazing job.😁

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

I guess that I am not alone in noticing the desperation trying to get their sale numbers up. Oh and to be reminded every 5 minutes how many have been sold. That tactic does not work for me.

@queen75

Every 5 minutes? More like every 2. And 9 times out of 10 they interrupt the vendor mid sentence to do so. I think the rudeness of it lies with the person talking in their ear telling them to barge right into whatever the vendor is saying and give those numbers....is it just to irritate us? Or do they think it makes us run & rush into the ordering process cause it just ain't selling?

Now the desperate push is on to fill that Christmas gift closet. Geez I hope none of you ladies forgets the school crossing guard this year.

And don't forget it's the ONLY order of the year!!

I remember a "Your Home With Jill" show last November when she was showing soap rocks, and she added "it's our only order of the year." Funny thing is, she had shown soap rocks in October, so I'm not sure how the November showing was the only order of the year!

Honestly, I think the desperation in pushing Christmas gifts way ahead of the season is so you already have it, whatever "it" might be thus you won't go buying " it" somewhere else.

all these people forget what they say and constantly contradict what they say. I think all their sale tactics are getting old

A beach house probably! Seems these hosts compete with one another. How often did we have to endure talk of Jills Beach House ?
