Q Talk

they are on hsn often, because their products are selling extremely well.

 I find them  as fake and creepy .... ...  although I did try their products .

I  like their facial cleansing makeup removal cloths and their Ylang Ylang body wash/ hand cream.

@Kat3251  I agree w/ you! As some have already said, ignore the snarky remarks....you're allowed to have an opinion and it's obvious others agree w/you lol

I've never liked them, I think the whole thing is pretty cheezy IMO

I love goats, so I watch to see the baby goats.  They're a hoot.  Sometimes I buy products and sometimes I don't.  Their soaps last forever and are very gentle on the skin.

Its Christmas shopping time and things like Beekman make good gifts, so they will be shown more than things like snow blowers.  JMO.

Thought about this for a while. I think the protests are not about the product but about the young men (they are young to me).

I am sorry, this my first post but I am getting real tired of the Beckman boys with their specials everyday on QVC and HSN.  Do these guys own the Stations?  Thanks for listening.

@Kat3251: No, the Beekman Boys don't own the station. But...guess what??? They will present their products on QVC this coming Saturday with a TSV.

I have to tell you, I am sick of seeing QVC turn into The QVC Sampler (remember that, old timers?) during the holiday season.  But I can change the channel:  I happen to love Josh and Brent, but I don't watch their shows - I order online., for myself and for gifts.  Also, I order from their website and am enrolled in the cheese auto-delivery program.  If they could, I think they would sell food products on TV (beyond the chocolates).

How do you feel about Josie Maran, Philosopby, Dyson, Valerie Pharr Hill, It Cosmetics or dozens of other vendors?  Once QVC finds a product that sells, they beat it into the ground and will continue to do so as long as sales continue.  Best to make liberal use of your remote control.

@Kachina624 you are so right !   I will say I hardly ever see Beekman products ,  I don't watch hsm though.  I feel QVC needs to add some new vendors to the mix though

@Kat3251 Welcome to the boards!  As to your question, they must be creating volume sales, hence the fairly frequent appearances on QVC.  

They were new to me a few months back and I advance ordered their candy a few months back that I am expecting to receive in December.  I wanted to try something different in the confection category.

As to the repetition you reference I don't know what to suggest.  My belief is that all the shopping channels rely on "repeat performances" of the products that generate the best initial sales response and then bring them back a lot to keep boosting the plus side of the ledger.

If we are faithful watchers it is sometimes hard to remember that sometimes what gives us a "yawn" because we have seen the brand, the presentation, and the host so many times is fresh and exciting to a brand new viewer.   And we are loyal to our "categories" my favorites being kitchen, household, decorating, some clothing, occasional jewelry, makeup--rarely--and gardening. 

At the end of David Venable's kitchen show last Sunday he mentioned that they had 1,000 new customers that he wanted to welcome.  

Of course, I wasn't a new customer that day but a "repeat" one--I ordered the 7500 Vitamix model that was the Today's Special Value during his show. Started watching at midnight.  It was my third purchase of a Vitamix blender from QVC and at the price for everything included it was a tremendous value and had the free shipping and 6 easy pays and according to UPS it should be here by 9 o'clock tonight.

I picked up two other much less expensive kitchen items (Lock and Lock) as well on Sunday, both that haven't been available in a long time and were again in rotation.

Glad to listen, that's why we share here, and, once again, welcome to the QVC forums!
