For Seller

Why not get paid for eating out, going shopping, and doing the things you generally love to do? Maybe you’ve heard about the term “mystery shopper” or “secret shopper”. Basically a mystery shopper is one who goes out to eat a restaurant, shops at a particular store, or might try a free sample product. The term “mystery” is driven from the shopper being undercover so that the restaurant or store does not know the person is getting paid to eat or shop. Big name companies or services will pay people to “mystery shop” at a particular store so they can see if their employees will treat the customer as they should. Most companies or services that contract mystery shoppers will pay for the majority of your expenses as you will be working while eating or shopping.

What kinds of things does a mystery shopper do?

1. Eats out a particular restaurant
2. Shops at a particular store
3. Tries sample products from companies

There are many more tasks that a mystery shopper does, but these are just a few main duties. It’s not all fun and games though being a mystery shopper. The person does have to typically write a brief or even sometimes detailed report on the experience. Since you are actually working as a mystery shopper, the company or service that has hired or contracted with you needs the report so they can use that information to make business decisions. If the experience was poor, the company will want to know this so they can make the necessary improvements. If you had a great experience, then the company will report this back and use this information to help other restaurants or stores to get to this achievement.

A mystery shopper is not for everyone however. If you have a family and many responsibilities in your own area, mystery shopping may not be the way to go as it requires a lot of time away from home. Being a mystery shopper however can be a rewarding experience if you like to travel, eat out, go shopping, and do much more “out and about”. You can typically make around $30-75 per hour being a mystery shopper, so the task is quite attractive.
