Social Media Mystery Shopping

What we test
A trained mystery shopper makes a realistic enquiry through each account you choose to test — by direct message or public comment, whichever a genuine customer would try first. We record how long it takes to get a reply, the tone and helpfulness of the response, whether the enquiry is understood and answered properly, and whether the business tries to move the conversation towards a booking or sale.
On packages covering more than one account, we also compare the channels against each other so you can see where your fastest and slowest responses come from.
Good to know
Social Media Mystery Shopping is sold as a one-off, per-campaign service rather than a subscription, so you can order it on its own or alongside a Customer Journey audit. You receive a scored report with evidence (screenshots and timestamps) and recommendations, in the same format as our other assessments.
