What Your Mystery Shopping Virtual Assistant Executes Daily
Mystery shopping company directors, CX program managers, and field operation heads should spend their time winning national enterprise contracts, expanding brand auditing programs, and designing survey methodologies. Delegate the daily report editing, receipt auditing, and shopper scheduling friction to vetted specialists.
Report Editing & Narrative Consistency QA
Protect your reputation for razor-sharp client data. We read and edit every completed mystery shop submission in Sassie or Shopmetrics, correcting grammar, eliminating subjective bias, and aligning narrative text with numeric score grids.
- ✔ Cross-checking score card ratings against written comment justifications
- ✔ Removing emotional, speculative, or accusatory shopper phrasing
- ✔ Enforcing client-specific brand acronyms, guidelines, and MSPA standards
Receipt, Photo & Undercover Audio Verification
Eliminate shopper fraud and fraudulent claims. We audit itemized purchase receipts, verify date/time stamps matching target evaluation windows, inspect store front photo geotags, and listen to covert audio recordings.
- ✔ Checking store address, date, exact minute, and terminal ID on receipts
- ✔ Inspecting EXIF metadata and GPS tags on proof-of-visit exterior photos
- ✔ Listening to integrity audio recordings for employee greeting & compliance
Shopper Scheduling & Field Dispatching
Keep month-end shop completion rates at 100%. We broadcast open shop waves, review evaluator applications, assign shops based on shopper grading history, and aggressively target hard-to-fill rural zip codes with bonus incentives.
- ✔ Posting job boards in JobSlinger, Presto, and regional evaluator networks
- ✔ Matching evaluator demographic criteria (age, vehicle ownership, household)
- ✔ Sending 24-hour and 4-hour pre-visit confirmation reminders to shoppers
Evaluator Recruiting & Rating Administration
Build a dependable nationwide database of qualified evaluators. We approve new shopper registrations, verify tax identification details (W-9 / PayPal verification), administer certification quizzes, and log reliability scores.
- ✔ Reviewing and approving new field evaluator applications in Sassie
- ✔ Updating shopper quality scores (1–10 grading) based on report accuracy
- ✔ Blacklisting flakers, duplicate accounts, and fabricated submissions
Shopper Fee & Purchase Reimbursement Batches
Keep your field evaluators loyal with punctual, accurate remuneration. We calculate approved shop compensation fees, verify expense caps (meal allowances, purchase reimbursements), and stage batch payout files in Tipalti or PayPal.
- ✔ Reconciling approved purchase receipts against contractual maximums
- ✔ Staging monthly and bi-weekly shopper payout batches in Tipalti/PayPal
- ✔ Resolving shopper payment inquiries, failed transfers & bonus discrepancies
Client Portal Delivery & CX Score Rollups
Deliver executive-ready brand intelligence to retail, hospitality, and dining clients. We finalize audited reports for client view, export regional score heatmaps, compile PDF slide summaries, and flag immediate critical fails.
- ✔ Releasing audited shop reports into live corporate client dashboards
- ✔ Generating "Action Required" urgent alerts for regulatory or hygiene failures
- ✔ Exporting monthly executive summary scorecards by district and franchisee
