It was a comment said with humor, not a warning. Things are gonna get loud here, lots of fun about to happen. That's what she meant. And Gold Medal Deals? I expected them to be selling flour all day LOL! (Joking)

I really don't care if they are loud. There are other things to watch and do and I wouldn't regret missing anything on Q.

@Q-Checker    I have the same problem with my IPad but the Q is tge only website I have audio problems with .   However there is audio on the Q A app if you're interested even though their App is one of the worst Apps I  have ever used.   The Q needs a real overhaul of their website.

She said it on the Brands We Love show 1/31/26  .

  Looked like  some items that had been marked down  that had been previously shown and  no free shipping.

To me, stating viewers should turn down the volume indicates an awareness that many viewers find the sound level unappealing. Rather than correct a behavior that turns viewers, potential customers away instead the irritating behavior is acknowledged and continues. 


To me, it shows a lack of respect. To me, it's just one more indicator why this company is floundering. Just one more indicator on why viewership is down. Just one more indicator on why sales are down. It's shown in each downward quarterly report.

 

Perhaps when the pink slips start flying, and the company goes under, when there's no longer a reason to turn the volume down; perhaps then people can reflect on their part of this company's outcome.

 

To me, for the past few years several host have been in need of behavior modification, regardless if it's on their part, the producers, or PTB.

 

@Etoile308  I don't watch live tv.  But I do check videos. I started with QVC IN 1987.  I look now and wonder if anyone in management watches the shows. Seriously. I know, even gleaning from Kathy Levine old book on QVC, they used to be given weekly meetings, daily meetings on products. They had to know all info on products, how they worked, everything by heart. They had a cue card with one or two notes that's it. All shows done from knowledge.Also, they dressed professionally.  Today I see some hosts and they are dressed for a camping trip, or the gym.  They read from,long lists, don't know product.  So they talk about everything else. It's like a chat room with merchandise.  The worst part is, many other employers who do not broadcast live on National TV, would call their hosts, employees in and tell them to correct behavior, or clothing. I know it works that way in many professional businesses here.
