Im finding Debbie flint the hardest of all the Qvc presenters to watch atm ( yes even more than jll franks), the constant badgering us to buy , the interrupting of guests, the encouraging viewers to buy more than one due to the item being on Easy pays. With Jill franks everything she says I take with a pinch of salt however with Debbie I find it tiresome the way she stands with her mouth half open ready to pounce as soon as the guest starts speaking, the constant use of her ipad and the pointing finger!!
I never used to associate Qvc with the hard sell compared to other shopping channel until the last few years and it feels like its since DF has been back on Q, I assume she's one of the top sellers on the channel and it feels like some of the other presenters are cottoning onto that and beginning to do the hard sell too, I guess its bad habits she's picked up from the other channels mainly Bid .
If you compare the selling tactics of Debbie and Julia they are poles are part, im not a massive Julia fan however I can happily watch an hour when she's presenting, she will allow the guests to speak and doesn't constantly go with the hard sell, I would assume she sells affair abit or she wouldn't still be on the channel.
Im sure Debbie flint is a nice person in real life and I understand she's there to sell and that we have a choice whether to buy or not, and after the recent departures I guess the presenters will feel pressure to hit there sales targets but DF's approach is more suited to a market trader rather than the NO.1 shopping channel.
Im sure there's a hell of a lot of vulnerable and lonely people that watch Qvc and feel pressure into buying items they don't need or cant really afford, A lot of theses people probably don't have access to forums like this or are able to price compare.
