Ipsos is a valued partner for us. We selected Ipsos after a thorough review of several research firms and launched our program with them last fall. They bring the resources and best practices that you expect from a large research firm, along with a focus on customization and personalization that you expect from a much smaller firm. Thanks to Ipsos’ research methodologies, our program has provided us with an additional lens on our business. And, thanks to the high standards, expertise, and thoughtfulness of our Ipsos team, we are developing actions we can take to further enhance our customer experience.

What is Mystery Shopping?

Mystery Shopping measures the delivery of brand and Customer Experience (CX) promises made to customers across every customer touchpoint, channel, and market. Through this method of research, Mystery Shoppers are provided a specific set of activities to perform along with a survey to record details about their experience and supporting photos. Ipsos then partners with our clients to take corrective action at the site-level and summarise common trends. The insights are used to improve training for staff, understand which elements of the journey might not be working as expected, monitor quality and compliance with regulations – and more. Mystery Shoppers are compensated for their time and get exciting perks, like free train tickets or taxi rides, meals in restaurants, or products they can keep.
