Wouldn’t it be nice if QVC went back to its roots? Beautifully groomed (read: professional make up artists) and attired hosts speaking graciously about unique, hard to find, quality merchandise. They should sit down with Kathy Levine, Mary Beth roe, a Jayne Brown and Pat for a walk down memory lane. I think the current crop of hosts (well… Not Shawn…) could meet that standard. And their calm demeanor could set the tone for the guests. Fix the shipping costs and time and I think sales would soar

Yes!! And do what HSN still does to an extent.
Sweepstakes, give-a-ways, etc. Special time-slot markdowns, flash sales, etc.
Home viewer call-ins for cash and prizes.
You’d be amazed what people will do for the chance to win a quality set of steak knives or a helpful gadget or two for free.
None of this is new sales tactics. In fact, these are tried and true, time-tested, winners.
In fact, QVC did things like this with Kathy Levine and the original hosts back when they first aired. You can find that very first airing today on YouTube, I believe.
QVC’s First Broadcast 11/24/86
But again, I do not believe that the current management knows what it’s doing at all…

With regard to QManagement, I don’t know whose heads are stuck up where (the sun doesn’t shine?), but at this point they might need to be surgically removed.

she’s been calmer and dare I say pleasant mostly on Q2. Maybe she will find her niche somewhere other than QVC

Got a few of Jane’s greatest hits in that short clip!
You can wear these past fall (always extend whatever season the shoe is), literally, daughter, final order of the year. Oh, and talking after they’ve put up a transitional image on screen. That’s when the host is supposed to SHUT UP.
All we were missing was her stinky bunion marathon and ya know she once broke her foot and Italian grandfather shoemaker. Flying out of here.

CEO and President David Rawlinson just had his contract extended through 2027.
I guess the Board of Directors thinks he’s on to something.
Or nobody else wanted the job.

But revenue doesn’t equal profitability. If they’re bringing in a billion in sales, but overhead and cost of goods is 1.1 billion, well, you know.

Speaking of the old days - Blabs was actually a likable host when I started watching and I won some money when they did that scrambled word puzzle when she was the host. The “mystery” word was ‘Diamonique.’ Even though it seems so obvious, when you are talking on the air, it made me nervous and took a second or two before I solved it.

Screw the mini crossbody bags, the sandals, and the beach pants. And profits be damned! This is what I bought today, and I’m declaring this day, February 28th as the official kickoff of Mardi Gras Weekeend! And I will enjoy a generous slice with freshly brewed coffee as soon as I finish my portion of rotisserie chicken.

Sure hope that crack IT department can adjust in time. It would be a shame if we couldn’t watch remote vendor reps through bad video and worse audio.

There - you mean in your shopping cart? Make sure you put your purchase through so it doesn’t go back in inventory!

Lock and lock printed sets are beyond cute. I don’t need another set but this shamrock with the gold lid - I can’t with how cute it is!

How many hours has Amy spent with us this week, along with her ridiculous shoes? … You don’t have to be over 70 to break a hip, or anything else.

I… cannot… resist… 
I’ve turned our tiny hallway shoe closet into a Lock n Lock closet. Feel free to judge.
