Hello @pupwhipped .  Just curious - who is the one host that can give JT a run for her money?  Smiley Happy


 

 

@San Antonio Gal 

 

I am kinda wondering myself!   LOL

 

I can't think of a single one except Rick, although Sandra would give a good try, but lose in the end.....

 

 

Well, I suspect most are going to disagree with me here, @San Antonio Gal and @RespectLife., but I was thinking of Shawn. When she's on with Jane she certainly doesn't play the "shrinking violet role" like Courtney does. Quite the opposite. And I even detect a little deference coming from JT to Shawn. But then again I will admit I don't watch the shows long enough to know any of this for sure...no matter who Jane is paired with I can't stomach her for long. And obviously this is just my opinion and others could see it in an opposite way.

 

I've said it before and I'll say it again, JT could be the best host on QVC. But she chooses not to. The incessant references to things (won't list them, we know what/who they are) that are solely self promoting seems intentional bordering on obsessive. Why she or management can't see that it's off putting and annoying is beyond me! Woman Frustrated

Re: Why? Still having multiple hosts on shows…

I started to watch Denim and Co. because the brand is one of my favorites but turned it off when I saw Jennifer was the host with Gary. They have NO chemistry,, NO fun. It was stiff and I felt sorry for Gary who is such a great vendor. 

It was the same "HARD SELL" as always. No offense to Jennifer, she is great with Issac, she is better with higher priced items, Denim and Co. seems too "middle of the road" for her. 

Mary Beth would be a much better host for Denim and Co. because she's more down to earth and consumers can relate to her.

Just please don't put Jane with Gary. No offense to Jane but Gary would never get   to explain his line or even get a word in edgewise. Jane needs a vender who can compete with her.

I think having a rep for just about every product is overkill.


 

 

I'd rather have the Vendor Rep and NO host!  LOL

 

They know the products so much better and IF allowed to get a word in edgewise, would give us the info we really want!

Oh @pupwhipped 

 

I don't ever watch ANY show she is on...so I have never seen Shawn with her.

 

Interesting...and maybe...good for her for standing her ground??

QVC got sued over host's schedules and preferred time slot schedules (the lawsuit stated hard to make sales when they wew assigned in the middle of the night or wee morning hours.) And in an interview an Executive said, sales come in to play only for host's salary raises and bonuses.......the host's are on salaried contracts.....no commission either......

Kachina624 is correct! Multiple host are NOT going to change. Dont like it?

Don't watch!


@ellaphant 

 

But not watching doesnt help QVC's financial picture to improve.....and the decline in sales keeps growing.....🤔

@Spurt    Yes, I remember that but we're talking about two host shows.
