I will reserve judgement on him for the moment but did think he came over a bit 'smarmy' and posh with it - sort of person you would have working in a saville row tailors. I noticed he is scheduled to do in the garden with Richard Jackson - that would be worth watching.
It did strike me funny on his first full show he said 'intro' and I had to think for a moments what he was talking about then obviously realised he meant introductory price. That's the first time I ever heard that jargon - does the QVC company manual allow such expressions?
Given he maybe nervous and all that or not used to QVC etc. he's worked in the US five years.
As he doesn't appear to have been given the QVC manual regarding presenting at all to me.
He spends most of the presentations talking about items being on great deals, price being honoured using slang terms and clearly stating you'll pay more else where and clearly stating you'll not find this item cheaper.
He clearly talked about where he worked before saying how they gave a thirty day offer too, never been heard that be mentioned so clearly on QVC regarding other channels.
He doesn't start by reading the item no plus the discription.
Which I noted so clearly on the Preserve jewellery case, when he didn't realise the product had the anti tarnish lining when it clearly stated it in the title.
He pressure sells by adding all the time how much time you have left to see item and that an item is going to sell out in the hour.
He's for ever saying that the call centre is so busy I've never known it be so busy all the time I've watched QVC, sales in his hour must be rocketing lol.
How many times does he say ex number of pounds and
change or not fully giving the item price.
I'm not going to comment on his look or personality etc don't want to go down that route.
Ask if I find him watchable or likeable or if I believe what he says well no.
All I can say is I posted the live link to where he'd worked previously and I understand from that his style.
Maybe I have the wrong impression but what I understood about QVC is that they set themselves above the hard sell pushy buy this now presentations.
I thought they prefered that their staff were fully trained and adopted QVC'S own style regime.
One of the best guys is of course Julian how likeable is he ?
I guess he's working too much behind the camera to impart that excellent way he has,that's why we don't see enough of him.
Makes me laugh when he talks about the US channels selling a combine harvester and that every family should have one .................
A long working member of the team but they got it right at the start.
