How do mystery shopper services work?

Advanced Feedback will provide your organization a secret shopper program for restaurants and bars. The service provided by Advanced Feedback will be customizable to meet your restaurant’s current needs and may be revised any time in the future if those needs should change.

Your restaurant will be assigned to an account manager responsible for all aspects of the program including: script and survey development, shopper selection, training and scheduling, data analysis, and delivery.

Advanced Feedback will recruit target market shoppers with proven secret shopper experience, data capture, and communication skills. We will compensate secret shoppers for their time and travel to visit your restaurant, and also time to complete surveys and data entry. Your restaurant will be asked to establish reimbursed purchase limits for each restaurant/bar. For telephone shops, Advanced Feedback uses highly trained in-house shoppers to represent prospective and returning customers to capture and record a wide range of actual caller scenarios.

Advanced Feedback will schedule shops randomly to cover lunch, dinner, and evening shifts as specified by your restaurant.

Each onsite evaluation will include the responses to agreed survey criteria and scoring, secret shopper comments of the employee interactions, property, general observations, and any supporting photographs and/or video recordings if applicable. All secret phone shops include a full audio recording including the number of rings and a report detailing the survey responses with scores, and any secret shopper comments. Phone evaluations include a coach’s review and recommendations for effective sales and service communication. To the extent possible, onsite surveys will also attempt to capture and evaluate customer service and sales communication skills.

Once secret shopper reports have been reviewed by your account manager, they are distributed via e-mail; paper copies are also available upon request. Video secret shops will be distributed via a flash drive, or we can host streaming feeds of your videos on our secure and password protected website. If your restaurant chooses to stream the videos online (very convenient for meetings and showing other restaurant locations) we will provide a secure log-in and private page dedicated to your viewing purposes only.

Results of all onsite and phone shops are maintained in a secure database. Advanced Feedback provides management-level monthly reports to track performance and improvement.

Advanced Feedback’s video mystery shopping is leading the food services industry with powerful sales and service training with unmatched service and support. Our professional video mystery shoppers provide you with the tools and technology to see exactly what is happening between your team and your prospective buyers. Our services not only provide insight into the experience of a customer, but you get the actual, unfiltered and completely objective look into your team’s selling skills.

Advanced Feedback will edit each video as necessary and upload to a secure and password protected video streaming site for immediate viewing by the staff of your choice. Each video may be streamed or downloaded in all common formats (PC, iPhone, Android and tablet). Training comments can be added directly to the video stream for others to view as they replay the training segment. Also, viewers can leave comments in a blog-style format.
