Not for me.  Hate to say it but not a big fan of sales people.  Worked with a few and that was enough for me.

@Bonkers1    No! It's a hard job. Although I have been in from

nt of a camera before...it was never like QVC. You are on live, no rehearsed lines. Brutal camera angels.  I also might be a little too sensitive to the online critsisim  and such that comes with the job.

NO; nothing about me fits a single category for consideration as a QVC host.

Many years ago when they first started and I was so much younger, I thought it would be an interesting and fun job!  They had fun sets and shows were more lively and I enjoyed watching so much.  I don't think the job is as easy as some may think though.  And it would be kind of hard to talk a lot about an item that you did not care for at all.  At may age, no, I couldn't handle it.

Never!  

 

1) I think it would be an incredibly boring job to talk about products for 2-4 hours.

 

2) There are a million jobs where one doesn't have to debase themselves to keep a job.

I sometimes wonder how a host can keep thinking of new ways to describe the same item and keep talking while a producer is talking in their ear while they are listening and trying to respond to the item's representative.....  Nope.  I can't walk and chew gum at the same time.  

 

I appreciate all that the hosts do, but I do not want to be one.
