Mastery Shopping®

Next level of mystery shopping. Don’t be dependent on one mystery shopper visit when you have hundreds of your own opinionated customers

Mystery Shopping

Staffino’s Mastery Shopping® is a unique feedback campaign launched in response to clients’ demand to get more quantitative data than the traditional mystery shopping model offers. We have been developing this innovative approach to the customer shopping experience for years side by side with some of our clients, and it soon became popular among others too.

It is now a new standard intended to be used as a direct replacement for mystery shopping or as its supplement.

Just ask your real customers!

The biggest issue with mystery shoppers is that they are not your customers. They don't know much about the processes they assess, their opinion is often biased, and the whole experience doesn't reflect the real situation. Besides, they are often revealed by staff members, who can then adjust their behaviour and skew results. Don't you think your customers will do a better job?

Ask the right questions in an engaging way

Mastery Shopping® method provides deep insight into customer satisfaction with key sales and customer-related processes conducted within the store. Together with you, we will select relevant questions and arrange them into several question sets.



Each question set and each individual question within it has its own weight, which is considerably more effective than the “hit or miss” approach used in traditional mystery shopping.



What's the main benefit of this method? Instead of one long survey, the questions are combined into several groups of up to 4 questions. The customers are more willing to answer a shorter, engaging questionnaire and in return, you get a sufficiently large sample of people.
