My name is Samantha and Im literally brand new (talking minutes here!) to this community! Earlier this week I discovered the world of Secret Shopping and after conducting some of my own personal research, I began signing up for a few different Shopper sites. I'll officially be conducting my first 'shop' this coming Monday, and I must admit, I'm both excited AND nervous!! Hopefully it goes well!! If anyone has any suggestions for a brand new member, they'd be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks so much,

Samantha

Hi Samantha, and welcome! The simplest advice I would give is to just follow the guidelines, and reach out to the schedulers of you have any questions about anything. Oh, and have fun while you're at it! :)

You can find a bunch of useful tips and advice on the following thread, so I hope that helps too: https://www.secretshopforum.com/thread/1/2/94/pro-tips-for-those-who-want-to-be-the-best-shoppers#post528

Good luck on your first shop!

Hi Samantha,

Yes, I have advice. Since you are new, read the guidelines and questions three times. This will make you more confident.

I've officially conducted my first 'shop'. It was very simple (the instructions were very clear on what was expected of me, as well as what I should NOT do), quit fun, and also, the product that the shop asked me to review/focus on was something I happened to actually need! Im definitely a fan of this whole secret shopper idea so far!!

Hello Samantha.  I am happy to hear your first shop went well.  I remember my first shop and how nervous I was, now I am relaxed and ensure I read the guidelines and questions so I have all the information I need.

Enjoy !!!
