Alberti Popaj facebook.....

Yesterday at 8:26pm ·

Is it too late for a ‪#‎tbt‬ post? This was about 15 years ago with my sister in law. It's so great to know that no matter how we change on the outside we are still the same people inside. 😘❤🙏🏻👼🏻

Alberti is still on because I watched him do as usual a great presentation of the logo tsv. He must be on in the middle of the night or wee hours of the morning.

He was on presenting LOGO this a.m really early and I must say I don't see him much and think he did a terrible job presenting the TSV. He showed all the colors on the rack but it was essential (what he didn't do) to turn the garments around because there is a lot going on in the back with a different contrasting color trim for each color. He showed only a small portion of the contrast color for each garmenton the rack as he showed the colors whereas he needed to turn each one around because the back is a big deal on the TSV. People have been raving here about what a good host he did but I didn't think he did a very good job showing us the garments initially. Sandra did much better at midnight with it.

Alberti does such a great job hosting - love the way he did the TSV

he is so good at demonstrating everything and this TSV doesn't show easy.

Funny Q makes some of the most popular men host sell every stupid thing Q has stuck in their warehouse and some of their women get items that sell themselves -

Oh, yeah, and he also kept shaking the hanger up and down as he talked while he was holding a garment which is a big no-no as far as I'm concerned. We can't see the garment-in-hand if you are moving your hand up and down as you talk for emphasis. I didn't care for him at all presenting clothes. Maybe he's better at presenting something else.

When I've seen Alberti he carefully displayed all the views of the merchandise and described all details. If he failed to with the TSV last night maybe he had an off day. Who knows. He usually does a great job, hence the frequent positive posts about him.

I never watch fashion, and did not see him with the TSV, but based on the kitchen, linen and other things I've seen him present, I find him to be thorough and knowledgeable.

If he didn't present well, I'd guess that it is because he is still relatively new, and there is a huge learning curve with this job.

I think many of us watch QVC (or have it on in the background) many hours a day, and have been watching for many years. We know what we want to see, and what questions we want answered about certain lines of products. Newer hosts just aren't there yet, and need a lot more experience, and learning from questions and feedback overtime. Kind of like being an arm chair quarterback. It's much harder to do than it looks.

I love Alberti and he is totally underutilized. It's not a good fit for him to sell women's clothing....I know the best designers are men but they have plenty of female hosts to sell women's garments. Give him home decor, cooking, jewelry even makeup. Please don't give him breezies!

I used to really enjoy him as well and followed his Facebook page, but I started to wonder when his number of followers grew so dramatically in less than 2 weeks earlier this year from about 20k to 140k. I think the newest hosts- Mary, Katie, and Elise are excellent! I am really impressed with how smooth they are for being so new!

Alberti's a great host and I've found

he can present everything well and

concentrates more on the product

and not so much chitchat.

👍😊

My comment was only in reference to his presentation of Today's Special Value in a very earlly morning show, as I thought I made clear. I have no idea how he hosts other shows as I have rarely seen him. So, whoever thinks he's a great host on other shows I think that's great. But to understand what I meant about his deficiency, you'd have had to have seen the show I meant. Unfortunately, the video of his presentation has been replaced now with one from a later show. So all Alberti defenders - fine, I'm very glad you like him. But I do think he could have done better with the TSV item. That's the only point I'm making about him. I don't even know how he did with the rest of the products in that show. Without having seen the show or the video of his TSV presentation, though, I think it would be difficult to "defend" him against my particular comments anyway.

You wouldn't have to defend your comments if there was video of the presentation - maybe you were dreaming. No one has ever seen what you are talking about.

I see him it's just getting to be to much not telling the real number of easy pay for an item people with bad vision rely on the host being honest regardless how bad you want to make a sale!!
