What is telephone mystery shopping?
Traditionally, telephone mystery shopping is the method to assess your team member’s performance against pre-determined sales or service criteria.
How does telephone mystery shopping work?
A mystery shopper or “fake customer” will call your location and present a customer scenario to your team members. The call is recorded and used to evaluate the conversation based on the criteria you have set with the mystery shopping company. A final report is sent to you for review.
Advantages
There are many benefits to mystery shopping your team members.
- Gain a better understanding of your customer service experience and sales process.
- Assess the ability of your agents to tackle resistance and manage complaints effectively.
- Understand how loyalty is acknowledged.
- Evaluate the proficiency of third-party call centers.
- Use data to set training goals, create a consistent service experience, and improve online reviews on sites like TripAdvisor and Yelp.
