Lisa Robertson is trying something new

kittykatkay — Tue, 29 Jun 2021 00:48:01 GMT

For those interested, she annnounced tonight during her Monday night preview on Facebook, that she will be presenting Italian jewelry live on her FB page tomorrow night, 29 June at 7:00 pm, EST and....

For the first time since being in business, she is going to have "live shopping". You will be able to purchase items during her FB presentation.

I guess since her sales have not been all that great lately, she has now decided to try "live shopping" as she called it. I think she should have done this day one instead of selling items at noon and 8 pm. She didn't say if this would be a permanent tactic, but maybe she is trying something different to get her items out of the warehouse. Will you tune in? I am.

@kittykatkay

Thank you for posting!!

I will try to watch but since I don't have FB I may have trouble see it!!

Something changed with FB several months ago and you can no longer see as much as you could previously for some reason!!

Either way thanks for the heads up!!

@JasoninBoston ....lots of people are complaining about FB. Some have been asking Lisa about that "pop up buy stars" thing and she said she didn't know anything about it.

Lots of people have dropped off in buying....I, for one, have not purchased anything from her in over a year. I just don't need anymore jewelry, but I love to watch. I bet she wears one of her "Italian jewerly show GOWNS" during the live chat tomorrow night, lol.

Bless her heart....I hope her sales improve because it looks very sad lately what is still on her website.

Recently I ordered some earrings that were an advanced order and won't be shipped till August. I don't mind waiting, but I want those earrings. Most of her merch is not my taste, but I do love her earrings. I hope her business can survive, but it must be tough going it alone.

I'm not into buying more jewelry, so I may or may not watch.

Maybe, she'll do a live program on her beautiful Christmas decorations later.

I hope she has good sales! I'm not needing any new jewelry, all thanks to her back in the day.

Bless your heart for starting this thread!

She must want to be as successful as Albany Irwin, selling Italian pices on HQShop. Albany brings more Italian jewelry than the few pieces LR will show.

LR kept her business from expanding. She thought it would be so with the groupies she had from the Q. That can't go on.

@QVCkitty1 ...Lisa does have some pretty earrings and I am sure you will love them once you receive them. I think Lisa started doing alot of "advanced orders" lately because she doesn't want to get stuck with merchandise that doesn't sell. Some items, I am sure, she can do "advanced order", but alot she can't.

I wish her success too....but I feel sad her sales have really declined lately. Even the daily response from the "tribe" have declined. No one seems to post much anymore. I think this is why she is going to start "selling things live". She said during the chat that she would see how this goes.

She has been in business for herself for 5 years. They say the real test of a successful business will be during years 5-10. We shall see. I wonder sometimes if she ever regrets leaving the Q...she seems to be doing the same thing as she did at the Q only now doing it all by herself with all the expenditures along with it.

@Foxxee ...I definitely do NOT need anymore jewelry, lol...but I LOVE YOUR IDEA of Lisa doing a live Christmas decorating show. She was the best at that.

@kittykatkay I doubt that "they sa 5-10 years" you mentioned takes in having a pandemic.

@febe1 ...Well, I was one of the original tribe members, but I'm not a "groupie"...but alot of us has dropped off in posting and buying lately. I'm not on FB as much as I was in the past and it's not as fun as it used to be.

Maybe Lisa could come back to the Q or go to HSN or HQ Shop as a vendor, if it doesn't work out in the future. Afterall, like you stated, Albany is a vendor at HQ Shop and Lisa Mason is a vendor now on the Q. Just a thought.

@Pearlee ...you could be right. I didn't think of that.

I was watching her a bit tonight, but she was speed talking for some reason. I had to turn it off, couldn't understand her anyway.

My regard for Lisa increased exponentially when she featured lovely Antoinella in a video recently. I hope she sells out on whatever she is doing on her FB and other channels and platforms. She stuck by her buddy

I enjoyed watching/listening to her chats since she went on this new adventure. Many of her items are beautiful but I have yet to purchase something since the prices are rather expensive. Changing things up a bit might help heighten the live watching interest. Maybe adding a guest to speak about the items or a model to show the clothing live would be a good idea as well.

I wonder if the first 5 minutes will be spent trying to figure out if they are live or not live as in "are we up yet?" Then scrolling and scrolling with her cell phone and fiddling with her tv remote controls and saying "wait for it, wait for it" then adjusting her camera angle... till finally they get underway.

5 years and they still only get rolling smoothly once in a blue moon.

She does have some lovely jewelry pieces, all of course couture inspired, but some of the tops she sells with the mile wide lace sleeves and frou frou bottoms and pom poms and such don't sell that well. And modeled with her badly shredded jeans are just too much.

Her ace in the hole seems to be her Christmas stuff, some of which is really unique and beautiful. It usually sells well but this year who knows what with people cutting back. Hopefully those Christmas in July sales will keep her in the black.
