I am rather certain these meetings are more to introduce new products and let the vendors educate the on air staff about what they are selling. After all, they have to get out there and discuss something for a pretty long period of time so they need to be prepared.

If that's the case, some hosts are either not paying attention, sleeping, or skipping the meetings, because there are threads every day that so-and-so a host was clueless and/or utterly disinterested about such-and-such a product being presented.

They'll probably sit around the table with bottles of wine. Laughing about some of the things they have to sell. I wonder if they draw straws to see who gets the nasty vendors. When there all done with the QVC wine don't forget they have to try it. Leaving the meeting all happy and giggles they go to wardrobe get dressed by then who cares what they are wearing or selling. LOL

If they are being introduced to new products...then the meetings have to be far and few between...seeing as they only show five products hour after hour...day after day...week after week...month after month....since Christamas in July...and even into December....

The products have been so repetitive that all of us could present the product even without attending the meetings...

They probably make snarky remarks about the viewers.

I often wonder how often the hosts are reviewed for their performances. Do they have to watch tapes of themselves to see where to improve?

Im guessing they must since my previous jobs dealing with public had opportunity for feedback and critiques
