What Makes a Successful Mystery Shopper?

We’re so glad you asked!

Rules of the road

A mystery shopper is a self-employed individual (Independent Contractor) who interacts with a business as a real customer would. By following guidelines to perform the assignment and making observations that fit in the categories the business seeks to understand, the shopper is partnering with the brand as a consultant or advisor.
