    Why did we choose to create our own shop?

    When mystery shoppers decide to take the plunge and invest in their own equipment to become a video mystery shopper, we want them to know they have made the right decision about the equipment they purchase. By creating our own shop, our shoppers know they are making the right choices.

     

    What is in the Proinsight shop?

    We have a wide variety of video equipment available such as Camera Glasses, Camera Pen, Camera Smart Watch, and the infamous Lawmate PV-500 Neo Pro.

    Each product has been tried and tested by the Proinsight team and has gained our seal of approval to ensure your video shops are Pro quality!

    The items on our shop have a detailed description of what the products include as well as a special pros and cons list that, we here at Proinsight have created based on our personal experience from using these items. You can use this list to decide which product best suits you.

     

    The benefits of the shop?

    We have LOTS of opportunities in video mystery shopping and wanted to make sure that we could make them accessible to all. So, by having our own shop it has created a quick in for those who maybe haven’t got the equipment they need.
