    Director of Client Success | Proinsight Mystery Shopping

    Work life is a coworking space that is on a mission to provide a space that provides creativity, flexibility, and socialisation and for individuals to get inspired.

    Work life decided to invest in mystery shopping to help tighten up their performance, increase conversion rates and help excel even further with their customer experience. By utilising a Mystery shopping programme, this has provided Work.Life with valuable insights through detailed feedback, telephone recordings, and insightful reports. This then enables Work.Life to be able to review and deliver back to staff to make improvements where needed and provided additional training.

     

    Here what they have to say about their experience so far….

     

    “Proinsight have made our mystery shopping experience so seamless. Jess and her team have been brilliant throughout the whole process ensuring we had all the tools we need to make sure the exercise delivered the results we wanted. We had an idea on the areas we were strong at but wanted to cement the feedback with some impartial feedback. The dashboard, reporting and feedback was great, easy to use and has allowed us to break down areas of improvement easily.

    We have now made the mystery shopping results a core KPI in our customer facing roles to ensure we remain at the top of our game!”
