Australian Shadow Shoppers Reveal Shocking Mystery Shopping Stories
NEW SOUTH WALES, Australia December, 2012 – The leading Australian shadow shopping organisation has revealed that some of their projects have saved large and medium-sized organisations the embarrassment of scandals, customer outrage, severe negative media coverage and a damaged reputation, possibly even the profitability of the business, by finding out risks to the reputation before customers or the media did.
Director of Shadow Shopper Australia Heather Cullen will not reveal the organisations involved for client confidentiality reasons but can reveal that their shoppers have found:
- A peeping tom in a childcare centre.
- Alcohol sold to teenagers with no ID
- Pharmacists giving wrong advice
- Fat dripping from a ceiling into salad
- Salesmen staring at a customer’s cleavage
- No gloves worn when making food
“As you can imagine, some of these stories would have made the front pages and had severe detrimental impacts on the reputation and sustainability of the organisations involved. Luckily it was our shadow shoppers who recorded the situations so the organsiations were able to find out FAST about the risks and take action before it went viral. Organisations that aren’t using shadow shoppers are risking finding out about their poor customer experiences on the front page of national newspapers.” www.ShadowShopper.com.au
