I do not view Lisa as a great sales person. I think the secret to her high sales volume is attributable more to her looks. Viewers see her wearing certain clothes or using certain beauty products and buy the products with the hope of looking as good as Lisa does. I think she will get a reality check when she leaves the Q - she is not as talented as she thinks is....

Are you basing this on facts ..... or just your opinion? {#emotions_dlg.confused1}

You've obviously never been in sales ......... Lisa was definitely a very effective sales person ...... unless you've seen Lisa's sales figures, you're only speculating. It takes more than looks to sell product.

As for talented ..... just "how talented" do you think Lisa thinks she is? {#emotions_dlg.w00t}


Lisa is talented in many ways. As for speculating we all do it at some time or another. {#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

Who knows what Lisa's sales figures were and IF I knew would I tell you? Of course not.{#emotions_dlg.sneaky}

This forum is fun not fact.

Don't worry, be Happy!

I actuAlly miss JasoninBoston....we had some posting headbutts,but always ended up "forum-cordial". I always looked forward to reading JiB's comments (what an ardent, unwavering fan) even when I totally disagreed with almost everything..LOL. That's part of the beauty of a forum.

OMG did u see former HSN host Chris Scanlon has a new line on Shophq called Luv it. Does it ring a bell with the end of Gili? This is sick how many people watch and copy LR. They all want to be her. I remember when she coined the phrase love love love and all the sudden all these other hosts ripping it off. Again everyone wants to the be the queen diva.

Yes! Lisa probably is the most successful host in QVC history. I am sure Rick Domier, Jill Bauer, David Venable and Mary Beth Rowe are not far behind.

Colleen is not even close by Facebook standards. Lisa's QVC FB page had over 250,000 followers, Colleen only about 64,000. Lisa now has a personal FB page and already has over 81,000 followers. In the world of social media, Lisa is clearly the favorite among fans.

I'm done with P.C. Just say what you mean and mean what you say. It's easier.

Outside of QVC, people say Lisa who? Shopping channel salespeople are just that, merely salespeople. If you think they're more, try getting out more.

Amen

Lisa was what the company needed at the time: they groomed a personality and programming around her. Good for her and very profitable for them. For those thinking seasoned hosts will now get an opportunity, I think you will be very disappointed. There is a spot for Pat and Jane and Jayne and Carolyn and MaryBeth, but it is not Lisa's vacated post. This is business and I am certain there is a host of a different demo targeted for those timeslots. It's TV and its retail, and that combo demands something different. (And it sure is not Linda Dano).
