Sell on QVC / What is QVC

QVC has numbers of retail stores where you can purchase their products and QVC has an online store that makes it even easier to shop whenever the mood strikes you. The QVC network runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 364 days a year. Even on Christmas, the episode is pre-recorded to be broadcasted. The QVC Studio Store opens 7 days a week from 10:00 am to 5:30 pm, ET. It only closes during New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Easter, 4th of July, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. During Christmas Eve, and New Year’s Eve, the studio closes at 2:00 pm.

A lot of bonuses and discounts are offered by QVC. If you purchase a product directly from the retail outlets, products are discounted to below on-air prices giving you good buys, great savings, and wide selections. QVC even has a 30-day money back guarantee policy. If you are unhappy with any purchase you may return the item within 30 days of purchase. Just have the original receipt handy and you will get an equal exchange or a full refund of original payment method.

Sell on QVC / Become a Vendor

So we know that QVC has a very long list of products and a very wide variety of choices. But do they manufacture all of these products? The answer is “no,” and this means that everyone has the chance to sell on QVC. There are a few very easy steps to follow to become a QVC vendor. Under the context of Marketing and Sales, a good product loses its essence if the prospect market would not know about it. Why would a manufacturer choose a media partner that does not get to millions of people? This is where QVC comes in.

If your company manufactures a product that is demonstrable and a working prototype that makes life easier to the big percentage of audience, your product is definitely for QVC. The range of QVC product categories cover Apparel, Beauty, Accessories, Bed & Bath, Consumer Electronics, Cookbooks, Food, Bags & Luggage, Health & fitness, Home Improvement, Jewelry, Kitchen tools, Garden, Pets, Toys, and Personal Care.

Sell on QVC / Product Evaluation

Product Evaluation and airtime are actually free with QVC. QVC however, is not involved in the inventing stage and the trial and error process of a product. QVC is not part of the manufacturing process. A product must be 'ready to sell' before a manufacturer can apply to be a QVC vendor. The post-production is the part where QVC helps and this part is better known as Marketing and Promotions. There are few product categories that QVC does not accept such as Nutritional supplements, Baby & Maternity products, Computer software, Artwork, Condiments & Sauces, and DVD & CD Videos.

The process is very easy and stress-free. All your company needs to do is get an application. If you are a company with a number of products or even just one product, you can get a single application with multiple product entries. You just have to attach the images and price sheets for review. You must complete the QVC product submission form and QVC will get back to you through your email address. A product sample might be necessary but not always, so it is not needed unless QVC requests for it. You can complete the application form in this link: QVC Submission Guidelines.

QVC will inform you of their decision after evaluating your application. Once approved, you can sell on QVC and at the same time gain access to the Quality Assurance, Packaging, and Labeling Guidelines so you can monitor the activity of transactions of your product sales. This means additional millions of heads to your target market!
