MYSTERY SHOPPING PROVIDERS ASSOCIATION WELCOMES YOU

ABOUT MYSTERY SHOPPING

We all shop in some form or another, and many of us enjoy shopping. But very rarely does opportunity present itself to do what we enjoy doing and getting to charge for doing it. Imagine earning extra income for going shopping and filling out a questionnaire!

Mystery shopping is basically a form of market research. You are asked to gather information from a customer’s perspective based on your store experience. Often times, this is done without the knowledge of the personnel where the shop is taking place. As a mystery shopper, you may, therefore, be asked to do some acting. This is not to deceive anyone but rather to assure that the information being gathered is representative.The first thing to remember is that you are providing a service to assist our clients in evaluating the typical customer experience. Therefore, you are not contracted to “catch anyone in the act” or trap the client’s employee. Rather, it is your assignment to answer specific questions in an unbiased and constructive way. This helps our client better understand how their employees are serving their customers and provides them with direction for implementing necessary training to improve the guest experience.
