Mystery shopping is a form of research work whereby an individual poses as a customer to objectively gather information on the business being studied. The information gathered usually involves, but is not limited to, employee performance, product quality, and overall perception of the shopping experience.

The information obtained from mystery shopping is used to measure service quality, and is normally just one part of a company wide program to enhance employee performance. Employees are told what is expected of them and that mystery shoppers will be used to evaluate their performance. The idea is to learn from the consumer's point of view which areas of service quality need improvement so the company can make those changes as soon as possible. Mystery shopping is designed to reward good performance and identify areas for improvement.

All of our clients strive to provide great customer service. Mystery shopping provides feedback on the level of service you provide - as seen by the customer. We can help you objectively measure your level of customer service, reward star performers and provide targeted staff training. Research shows that up to 96% of unhappy customers do not complain when dissatisfied, yet they go on to tell many friends and associates about their bad experience. Let us help you identify any problems before they do.
