Mystery Shopper - facts feedback responses answers - by Ethan Hunter

You need to be meticulous as to the facts, feedback, responses, answers and input that you provide. It has to be qualitative and the TRUTH. There are no specific guidelines or rules on how to do this, practically just stay truthful, fair, reliably give your opinion, observations, and facts and are true to yourself, ethical and honest. Follow the instructions and deliver to the expectations of whomsoever hires you or gives you a specific task to complete on their behalf in this incognito role. You are providing a service they theMystery Shopperlves cannot fulfill.

Opinions and interpretations, personal advice is NOT what they are necessarily looking for. Be sure to avail yourself of what their expectations and requirements from this mystery shopper experience, task and assignment actually are.

A fair example of how this would or might unfold might be that upon entry at a hotel, restaurant, store etc. you might make some observational comments about the clean floor, with nothing lying around or obstructing your way then add that there was not enough promotional and informational materials out in the lobby for example that invited you to linger. As to the why you respond simply by stating - They did not cater to your tastes or needs. Plain and simple. THIS DOES NOT PROVIDE VALUE! Suggest what would be useful and do not make it a personal preference mention why it is relevant and whom it might cater to keep it practical Your statement will be ignored, deemed not effective, beneficial, or worth their money to pay you, otherwise!

Stick to the facts and rather focus on things that are there. Keep your opinions free from personal preference, bias and/or outright advice, things that you would like.

If you are asked for your opinion specifically, then respond with detail and examples and keep your responses generic.
