Mystery shopping is a type of observation study where someone is sent into a business location to act in the role of a customer to evaluate the performance of a business or an employee. It is a tool that uses individuals acting as potential customers in order to experience and measure any customer service process.

A mystery shopper is someone who shops or visits local retail establishments such as clothing stores, restaurants, electronics stores, jewelry stores etc to interact with the store personnel and later critique their services. A report is generated on the study and is reported to the company. A mystery shopper doesn't just visit any retail establishment. He or she may also visit companies that actually pay to have their services evaluated by someone who just pretends to be a normal every day customer. The mystery shopping company pays the mystery shopper some perk in cash or some gift.

You should always remnember that mystery shopping is not a full-time job. It is a part-time job to earn some extra cash. If you live in an area where there is no mystery shopper, your charnce of making money increases. You might get several assignments in a month that will earn you enough money. But don't just rely on this one job.

As a mystery shopper, you can make as much as $30 or $50 per assignment. You may also earn some gifts or gift certificates to shop or eat for free in some good restaurant.
