Did he ever make an appearance on QVC?

I remember him on QVC a few times at the beginning when the products were first offered. The company was sold.

@Janey2 I didn't know the company was sold.  It was based in CT and I remember the lady rep (Dana) who was battling breast cancer.  Who did he sell the company to?

Way back, before his products were on QVC, I remember Dr Pericone on PBS talking about lifestyle improvements to achieve a healthy body and healthy skin in front of live audiences. He was good at public speaking in that kind of setting with studio lights sort of blinding so you can't see the actual faces you are talking to. I've read that he is extremely shy which would explain why he always has spokespersons.

The company has been sold multiple times.

 

The last conglomerate to buy them closed the headquarters in Meridan, CT ...gosh years ago.  It had been the main office since he began the company.

 

Everyone lost their jobs as they moved everything to SF.  None were offered to transfer to CA.  My BFF had worked there for 25 years in accounting and was devastated.

 

The Lion Group sold to THG (The Hut Group) who consolidated everything to their own offices in San Fran.

 

Dana Bledsoe was an outside contractor paid to be the QVC rep per appearance.

 

Don't google, there is false info that she has passed, while others have posted here she is still alive and a strong advocate for those battling cancer.
