First time for everything

just wonder — Sat, 30 Jul 2022 18:31:49 GMT

I know, to each his own regarding show hosts, but for first time, I have turned off the VPH show and am not even taping it. JC is just becoming too hard sell and imo doing less and less of actually presenting details of the items being sold. Looking forward to Valerie's show later this evening!

What was the point in posting this? Big whoop dee doo. You don't like that particular host. You already decided to watch a later show which is the adult thing to do. It's what we all do from time to time. Did some host bashing make you feel better? Were you hoping that others would jump in and continue the bashing?

Agree; hopefully it will be Rick later. (could that dress be any tighter?)

Which JC do you mean? Jennifer Coffey or Julia Cearley? Thanks.

The last time I saw Rick with VPH, he was in overdrive too - very hard sell. Usually he's calmer with her. Anyway, I too had to turn away; it wasn't the relaxing watch I'd anticipated.

Jennifer took the words right out of my mouth...she just said, "I know this is chaotic."

DING, DING, DING, DING, DING!

Rick will be the host at 7pm

I'd rather they have Jayne Brown or Rick do all the VPH shows.

Oops, Jennifer C. I LOVE Julia C. and she is definitey not a hard sell and does a great job of presenting products. Thanks for mentioning that.

Only posted Chrystaltree so perhaps someone at the Q might see and try to rectify. Not host bashing at all; just wish she would calm down, esp when with Valerie and actually talk about the items. I have seen several of the new hosts with Valerie after midnight and they are all lovely with her and easy to watch. But, of course, if others like this kind of selling, they certainly can complement it Chrystaltree and pay no attention to my comment.

Perhaps it's just me, but Valerie seems very subdued in this show with Jennifer. I think Valerie is sensible enough to not try to get in the way when a host has a selling vibe that Valerie may not connect with. Or, maybe Valerie is just tired from an already full day of shows and presentations.

It could be just my imagination of course.

I agree with the O.P. Not bashing the host. Just stating the obvious. How many times do you have to talk about easy pay, discounted prices and today is the last day? How about letting Valerie talk about her products.

I didn't see all of the show, but I thought it was fine. I guess I missed when she went off the rails or whatever. The powers that be will not be doing anything about any show. If products sell they are happy. JMO.

@Caaareful Shopper I noticed the same thing....she seems a bit distant...perhaps she is tired.

I really think the hosts are being told to ramp up their selling techniques. Almost all of the shows I have watched, the hosts are almost out of breath after giving a presentation.

Happy to say I have not even done so much as a Q check today. Not remotely interested in anything having to do with Christmas or watching hyperactive adults trying to sell it.

Jen please slow down your presentations. I know you are friends with Kerstin who always seems to be on an adrenaline rush.

Well...I didn't fall for the frantic sales pitch...but apparently alot did because stuff sold out....

I don't think Valerie likes presentations like that...

Whoa! Relax. The OP was voicing her opinion. Too bad if you don't like it, no one likes every opinion. You could have just moved on if it created that much angst for you.

Wow! Some posters really do think that they own and regulate the boards.

The OP stated their opinion, as have many others.

(The word police also told us we must not say too expensive. We must say I can't afford it.......how condescending.)
