What is the importance of objectivity during a mystery visit?
Objectivity is essential to a mystery visit. The report should be a reflection of the facts and not the mystery shopper’s own opinion or interpretation.
It is therefore of the utmost importance that you supply only the actual facts relating to a visit unless otherwise requested.
The report should include detailed information, allowing the principal (our client) to read the exact details pertaining to a visit.
