Mystery Shopper Resources

Mystery shopping is a practice used by organizations to evaluate customer experience and assess operational standards.

Here you can find the results from FAB's pilot, a toolkit on how to build your own mystery shopper program, as well as the resources that FAB developed or refined based on customer feedback.
