Shaving eyebrows so you won't get noticed as the mystery shopper

February 24, 2018 03:41PM
Seriously, I don't change my look or style. I wear what I always wear, and depending on your jobs, looking the same ads to my being a good customer and returning...of course, this doesn't include banks, dealerships or the same apts., which I don't do more than once location wise. I shop at the same groceries and retail, have been for many years, restaurants we all have favorites and return......what am I missing?
oh yea, DavePi asked the question....

Live consciously....

DavePi, why don't you post some photos of yourself in your different personalities and we will evaluate which ones would give you away.
But really I think going drag to your shops would give you so much more versatility than losing your eyebrows.
There are so many different looks you could do.

Yup. In my current gig, I see everything. One day, the possible dude dressed waaaay better than everyone else. I wanted to ask him/her where he/she bought their clothes! But I didn't... sigh... so I still have the basic look. Black pants and whatever is clean, fits, won't show mess from merchandising tasks, whatever.

I have been mystery shopping since 2006 . Every shop is different even when shopping the same client. The locations can be in the intercity or a mall You must dress as other shoppers do and appear to be of the same demographic economically or you may not be buzzed int to higher end stores. .

In restaurants I believe many times they know you are the shopper because you are asked to perform the same requirements. They do not reveal you as they use you to report excellent service.

You notice them cleaning the floor and clearing the tables and you get your service faster than people who were seated after you. Sometime I write notes or appear to be on a shop just to get preferred service at restaurants I do not shop for but know they are being shopped. .I do not meet their age requirements but appear to meet their requirements.

You must view the customers entering the store, if your clothes and the language you speak and vehicle you drive does not match they may not even open the door if you are evaluating a high end clothing or jewelry shop; Halloween is my favorite holiday You dress up and stay in character even when it is not Halloween.
