Mystery shopping is a research method used by companies to evaluate the quality of their products and services. It involves hiring anonymous shoppers, also known as "mystery shoppers," to visit a business, interact with its employees, and report back on their experience. Mystery shoppers are typically tasked with evaluating specific aspects of the customer experience, such as the quality of service, cleanliness of the store, and product knowledge of employees. Mystery shopping provides businesses with valuable insights into how they can improve their customer experience and ultimately increase customer satisfaction and loyalty. Mystery shopping programs can be found in a wide range of industries, including retail, hospitality, healthcare, and financial services. Mystery shopping is a win-win for both businesses and shoppers. Shoppers get paid for their time and effort, and businesses receive valuable feedback to help them improve their operations. Mystery shopping is also a great way for people to earn extra income, gain experience in customer service, and have fun while shopping.

As a Diamond opticx mystery shopper, you may be asked to visit a variety of businesses, including retail stores, restaurants, hotels, banks, and even car dealerships. The specific types of shops you do will depend on the needs of our clients and the location of our shoppers. Some common types of shops include customer service evaluations, product displays, and compliance checks. You may also be asked to make a purchase and report on your experience, which is typically reimbursed as part of your compensation.
Our compensation plan is designed to provide a fair and competitive payment to our shoppers. We understand the value of your time and effort, which is why our payment ranges between $50.00 to $300.00 per assignment, depending on the store and assignment.

We're thrilled to introduce our latest crypto payment option, revolutionizing the way you complete assignments and receive payments. This innovative solution offers a fast, secure, and convenient experience, allowing you to access funds on the same day. With our new payment method, shoppers can tap into the power of decentralized finance (DeFi) through trusted web3 platforms like Trust Wallet, Metamask, Safepal, Ledger, Math Wallet, and more. Transparency is at the heart of our platform. To ensure seamless transactions, shoppers must maintain a minimum portfolio balance of $100.00. This amount covers gas fees, a mandatory requirement by all web3 platforms for processing transactions. Thanks to decentralized finance (DeFi), shoppers can now request funds after receiving an assignment, eliminating the need to use personal funds. This feature offers added flexibility and convenience, enhancing your shopping experience. By embracing our crypto payment option, shoppers can enjoy swift and efficient transactions without the hassle of intermediaries.

To ensure a reliable payment system, we have implemented a one-month delay frame timeline for generating paychecks. This means that any work completed in a given month, such as January, will be paid out by the end of the following month, in this case, February. This delay provides a number of benefits for our shoppers, including the ability to accurately track their earnings and plan accordingly. Additionally, it allows us to ensure that all payments are processed correctly and any issues are promptly addressed, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free payment process for all parties involved. We understand the importance of timely payment and are committed to providing our shoppers with a reliable and secure payment system. By using this delay frame timeline, we can guarantee that all payments are processed accurately and on time, providing peace of mind and security for our shoppers..

We released our first Mystery Shopping program in 2004. Since then, we have mastered the art of program design, and use it as one of the three key elements of Behavioural Evolution.
To run a world class Mystery Shopping program you need to be sure the correct questions are being asked. We use Neuro-science to dig into your customer’s collective sub-conscious buying behaviours to find out what’s important to them.
This insight is then used to ask the right questions in the Mystery Shopping program as opposed to measuring what you think is important to your customers.
The final layer is to use the same approach with staff, so you can teach them exactly how to sell to your customer’s specific requirements. We do this in a way which acknowledges the personality of the staff member.
The
problem with surveys
Many companies worry that their surveys are missing the mark.
Well they are right to worry.
People don’t buy solely on robotic logic. The problem is a lot of surveys ask the same old logical questions in a vein attempt to measure emotions.
Furthermore customers may be unwilling to give accurate feedback. Even worse, the customers might not know why they act as they do. Our solution is to incorporate the latest discoveries in Neuro Science to identify patterns showing what’s really going on in your customers’ minds.
Customers are complicated. Why do they choose you?
You probably spend untold energy defining your Brand, product, convenience, look, feel and… the list goes on. Your strategy defines how you interact with the outside world, but it doesn’t answer all the questions. You can’t know what’s happening in your customers’ minds. Until now.
Neuro Shop goes deep into unlocking the reasons why your customers buy. You will feel like you are reading their minds.
Once you know why your customers buy, you can set up the service offering to specifically serve them and attract others. More importantly, we’ll help you measure the things most important to them to make sure you’re on track.
Your measurement tools should ask questions relevant to your customers.
Everyone wants to collect customer data, but data doesn’t become insight unless it’s relevant. Irrelevant data has a financial cost which is further compounded by the cost of potential missed opportunities and misguided strategy.
So how do you know which questions to ask?
One thing is certain, it’s no longer OK to ask the same generic customer satisfaction questions. We’ve moved on using Neuro Shop.
Neuro Shop will identify the exact touch points and triggers relevant to your customers based on their sub-conscious buying behaviour.
We’ll help you focus on the specific triggers which affect the relationships you have with your customers.
Reveal the truth
“Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain’t goin’ away” ~ Elvis Presley
In our experience, the truth is hidden either intentionally or unintentionally. We won’t dance around the truth or tell you what we think you want to hear.
A properly run Mystery Shopping program will cut through all the noise and filtered reporting. We’ll provide a direct and deep account of your customer experiences.
We’ll help you confirm what you already knew about your business, disprove what you thought, or discover something you didn’t know.
Unfortunately, a lot of customer service feedback is ad-hoc, immeasurable, and negative. Emotional reactions of staff and customers make the situation even more dark and confusing. We’ll give you regular feedback as numbers that can be measured and still maintain a balance with consumer insights.
Sometimes you can’t be sure if you are dealing with a one-off issue, or a systemic problem. Our programs enable clients to pinpoint exact problems and take direct corrective action.
But, feedback isn’t just about the negative. We’ll help you clearly recognise your Rockstars to encourage and reward their awesomeness.
Insight
“The best vision is insight” ~ Malcolm Forbes
Getting accurate numbers is one thing; to see what they mean is another.
In addition to finding facts and truths, we help you get behind the numbers to understand what they mean. We’re in a unique position to do so because of what we’ve learnt from running tailored programs over the last 10 years. We know what works, and what doesn’t. The insights are there, and we know where to look.
Our discovery process is tested and proven through experience, and is shared only with our clients.
With an insightful program you will see the relationship between Mystery Shopping results and sales, complaints, or even benchmark against other best practice companies.
FIND OUT WHAT CUSTOMERS EXPECT FROM YOUR STAFF
Specific learning
Mystery Shopping provides the most direct route to targeted staff training.
Rather than shoot a proverbial gun in the dark, our Mystery Shopping program will shine a light on exactly where you need to focus training.
We can either work with your training department, or your staff directly to optimise training dollars. Stop wasting money!
“A
superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his
actions.” ~ Confucius
You don’t want staff to ramble, and you don’t want silence.
Sure all customers are different, but, your customers are also different to your competitors’ customers. You need to make it easier for staff to talk to your customers by revealing what your particular customers want to know.
You can go beyond understanding your customers and also better understand your staff. We use Neuro Shop to profile your staff to help them understand themselves better, but also each other.
We’ll work with your staff so they can make sense of everyone’s crazy personalities.
“Give light, and the darkness will disappear of itself” ~ Desiderius Erasmus
