Re: First time watching this host on Q2

[ Edited ]

I have seen Avijah on a variety of shows and I agree that she is just not suitable for this gig.  Having been a TV reporter doesn't also translate to the skills needed here.

 

I also recall that her on-air introduction was delayed, while her "classmates", Sam, John and Justin were already hosting.  Perhaps additional training was required. 

 

Truth is, not everyone makes it, whether it's a dream job or not.

 

(And I detect no anger or irritation in most of the opinions given.)

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.

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.


 

Yes, I agree grace should be given, but like any job, like the company I work for, there's a certain time when you are expected to perform up to speed, or are shown the door.....QVC can't let this slide because lazy habits develop and the viewers are stuck with a bad host, unfortunately, we've seen this happen. She's been there since January 12, 2025....There's no hate or anger, we are just saying it seems she needs to spend more time learning about the products....
