As far as I know we had a slightly above average night on the phones, but I wouldn't say this made up for the drop in other sales.
So... I don't know, there's no way I'd sit here and say that the stats from one night without a host represent how the show would perform constantly if we took them out permanently. But, I also doubt it was a coincidence that sales of those things were down on the night we had no presenter.
Make of that what you will, but I would say it's likely that having no presenter can have a negative impact on sales.

Backs up what I've always thought of Babestation, that actual phone calls themselves don't make up the majority of their revenue. For every call, they'll make more in queued up listeners, hence the fake begging for calls, phone wagging and 'girl callers'. Plus if a babe or mic girl can do that & generate more sales of pics, vids & BSX subscriptions than others, she'll get more screen time. That includes more interruptions if necessary.
BS is a well oiled, money making machine. I don't blame them really, after all it's a business. The fact they can still afford to dominate FV must show they're doing something right.

well if no mic girl has a negative impact on sales, then why do all the other channels not have mic girls then, only bs has mic girls. the other channels must be getting decent sales, otherwise theyd have mic girls.
studio66 did try mic girls but very quickly stopped doing it

You should be asking why Jamie tried it in the first place. Obviously to increase revenue.
Maybe he couldn't get it going as good as BS hence he gave up
Don't discount him trying it again if he can crack it. After all he's seemed to crack the OSGs and selling pics/vids part.
Although not on the schedule posted by BS Savannah Mai (Rochelle) is back on BS tonight , she's not long ago confirmed this on twitter, it will be interesting to see if they let her get naked, if i remember correctly the last time she was on BS her naked sections were quite interesting
With all due respect Lotuseater I think I can see exactly why Lilly Pink came on this forum and felt the need to defend her friend Geri. Camilla leaving Babestation and that goes for any other model whether it be past or present has left at their own free will. This has had nothing to do with Geri whatsoever.
Yes you share the same frustations about Geri constantly on the mic as the rest of us do but you really need to be a bit more diplomatic here when you put your points of view across. But just to clarify here the issue here is the need to have a mic girl. Also Megan just to add is just as bad when it comes to interupting the show as Geri is so it's obviously something on the production side of things that needs a serious look at.
i see that Elise Evans is taking a look at the Bs part of the forum right now.
i love to see her on bs its self.
