Do I need to have a sample of my product on stage?
Yes. Presenters should have a product that is in prototype or at least close to retail-ready [from prototype to retail-ready]. See more information on eligible product categories below.
When will I find out if I am accepted to pitch?
Applicants will be notified by email no later than August 31, whether or not their product fits within QVC’s current product categories. Specific pitch appointments will be set with approved presenters in October.
Is there a standby list for people who couldn’t get an appointment?
Yes – a small number of appointments will be available after 4pm to accommodate standbys.
How long should my presentation be?
Your appointment is 10 minutes total, including the time it takes the panel to give you feedback. With that in mind, please keep your presentation to approximately five minutes, and no longer than eight minutes, to allow adequate time for a response.
