If QVC wanted your opinion...what would you decide?

[ Edited ]

I know what I would say, but if given the choice, would you prefer to have Hosts continue to show items, or would you rather have Vendors? I know right now they are very short staffed, but I have watched some of the Vendors shows and they seem to be OK, of course like most here I have my favorite Hosts, and those I do not watch anymore or mute. But was just wondering how you all feel about going to Vendors only or staying with Hosts.

I would say it depends on the vendor.  Not all vendors are qualified to run a show by themselves.

 

Beth with Susan Graver is a great example of someone that could carry a show by herself.  Nicole Miller is an example of a vendor that could not carry a show by herself.

In all honesty, I don't like when just the vendor presents on Q2.  They do this quite a bit.  I prefer having a host as well.❤️

@San Antonio Gal   I truly hope someone in QVC management, or a seasoned host, can tutor Nicole Miller in her presentations.  

 

I think she's a great designer.  But I saw the one show with Pat yesterday, and I have yet to know what Nicole looks like.  She stood sideways looking at Pat and the clothes rack the entire hour, with her hair covering her profile.  I hope she's OK.  It was just oft-putting not to have the brand expert make contact with the viewer at all.  

 

Her ombre maxi dress was beautiful!

I like all the Q Vendors, but I must admit it’s kinda sorta boring when it’s just them presenting. 🥴

I don’t like just vendor presentations. They are boring. The interactions & questions from hosts make it more informative & interesting.

Some vendors can carry a show, and are even better than many QVC hosts..

 

Sarah Cotellesse, Beth Chandler, Debbie Fediukov, and Bret Hamilton all would be very enjoyable hosts.

I don't know why a company that's struggling with profits would even have vendor reps. Years ago the hosts prepped and presented. Only if it was a complicated electronics product did they have a rep with the hosts. Not sure what the point is of all these people - the hosts should prepare and sell. If they cannot, maybe this isn't the job for them. While not my favorite, Shawn is actually more prepared than many others I see. It seems absurd that David needs a rep to sell a knife or other kitchen widget.
