Re: First time watching this host on Q2

AVIJA does just fine in the fashion shows. With all those crazy patterns in Temptations line I'm not surprised she was confused.

I know there is a lot of negativity about JT but I think she’s the only host who can sell just about everything which is why so is of great value to QVC. She is always well prepared & knowledgeable about the products. I saw a little bit of the temptations presentation but shut it off, nothing to do with the host just not interested in temptations.

A QVC host’s job is to know the products she’s presenting and it shows that she doesn’t spend much time preparing for her shows. Either way, Avijah is just hard to watch annd listen to and she’s been at QVC for several months. It’s time to cut bait and find a new host.

Don't know this host--don't know most of them!!--but there are so many hosts why not just let them sell what they're comfortable selling? David does mostly kitchen/food, doesn't he? So why not have this host just do fashion and accessories? Just like doctors, the hosts can be "specialists"--LOL!!

She seems to be very, very nervous still. I thought she came from television. I'm sure being a salesperson is a little different than her previous life. I did not see the Temptations presentation, but I did see her with Debbie from LUG. She is still more of a color commentator if you will, she is not the play-by-play person. I am not sure why she is not growing as quickly as some of her peers. She appears to be a lovely person from what we see on TV, but maybe she's not actually a salesperson. In my opinion she seems to always be searching for words, and not truly familiar with the product.

I’ve watched Avijah several times as she presented clothes, Lug and Temp-tations. She seems very nice but also very nervous and unfamiliar with the products she is presenting. At times she is very slow to get words out of her mouth. Overall she just seems unprepared and maybe in need of more training. QVC is a business and I can’t imagine they will stick with her if she doesn’t progress soon.

Isn't she brand new?

I remember my first public presentations and how nervous I was. I messed it up bad the first time but got better each time and ended up giving presentations at national securities events and at our office all over the country.

@CalminHeart

NO, I haven't seen her in many shows myself, but I know she's been on meet our hosts portion of the website for quite awhile ......Perhaps she needs to spend more time learning about the products... Leah has talked about how they have meetings with product ambassadors and crew to learn what items are going to be in the show....and they have the cards to lean on too.

When they used to do behind the scene interviews with the hosts one said that QVC wants them to be spontaneous and not pre-rehearsed in their sales talk, but the hosts must STILL KNOW THE PRODUCTS!!!

I prefer to give her a little grace. We've all been super nervous or frozen in place at some point in our lives no matter how well we knew the material.

Your anger/irritation only affects you. She doesn't know you and you don't know her.

Besides, she probably was upset with her performance after that show.

Teddixat · ‎10-04-2010

@Stray I'd rather watch AVIJA stumble than watch JT sell anything. I do t care wgat she's selling, I immediately change the channel. Can't stand to listen or look at her.

Should grace still be given after 7 months of presenting products?

I don't see anyone "angry/irritated" here as you say. Posters are just sharing their opinion - which seems to be the same.
