Customers facetiming QVC

[Deleted member 22840]

Why is it needed, that the rest of us need to listen to a customer fawning over QVC’s diamonique. I for one turned the station.

Maybe it's that Fear of Missing Out thing and QVC think if we see others buying it we'll rush to do the same?

I guess it’s just another gimmick. Unfortunately for QVC, I don’t “do” gimmicks so it won’t encourage me to make a purchase.

 

[MrMarple]

It was almost as bad as when they used to encourage people to phone in to the studio. I still cringe thinking about some of the calls that they took.

 

[loveallthingsitalian]

Way outside my capabilities so you are all safe.

Well, one I would never dream of Face Timing QVC, two I do not have an Apple phone Samsung baby.

It's like the old days when people used to phone in live to the studio. Bet they will be rushing to put all their QVC tat (products) sitting behind them in shot.

Years ago I phoned about a product as I had a question and CS wanted to put me through to the studio. NO!!!!

That was such fun though!

What’s all this? How does it work?

Too many repeats as live finishes early to tempt the tipsy anymore.

 

[candycane]

Ah yes, rolling in from the pub on a Friday night and rushing to the phone to buy the TSV before it sold out I remember it well. I never phoned in though.

I wonder how they choose the face timers? The one woman has been on before with Alison in a diamonique show. It sounds as though they get sent ‘samples’ of the products they are going to talk about . I know that when Alison had customers FaceTime on her diamonique shows, it sounded as if she already knew them ( I think they were customers who regularly correspond with her) and they were sent a selection of jewellery to hold up to the camera and enthuse about.

 

[alter ego]

I find it a huge turn-off. Literally. I want clear shots, measurements and clear footage of the item on a model. I don't want or need someone else's opinion of it.

I must be a dinosaur as I don't understand the 'influencer' thing at all. They get stuff for free, they give a positive opinion. They have to or they stop getting freebies. Hardly un-biased.

 

[Toril]

Influencers have zero effect on me. If anything, I make sure I don’t buy whatever product that they’re raving on about. I’m quite capable of making my own decisions. I also ignore celebrities who endorse products. I have a life, unlike those who want to be on screen all the time.

At least he was honest though, all though he did sound a bit sizzled, it was the way the callers used to say can I have your autograph

 

[donna255]

Oh yes. The callers telling the presenters how much they loved them and asking for autographs.

Did any one ever get an Xmas card from QVC signed by a presenter? Yes, these did happen.

I haven’t had a card signed by a specific presenter but, in the past, I have had two cards with photos of most of them on the front and their “signatures” inside.

They made my Christmas …. not.

So did I & put it down to the amount I'd spent that year

 

[loveallthingsitalian]

I used to get the card every Christmas for years but needless to say haven’t had it for some time which isn’t surprising since I only spend about £50 a year (plus post)

Enjoy
