Mystery Shopping Benefits for Medical Aesthetic Clinics

We have taken on a new client who has medical aesthetic clinics.  Before we even managed to fulfil our first visit, we discovered that WhatsApp enquiries weren’t being responded to and phone calls were not being picked up or followed-up.

Our client was pretty disappointed. But they shouldn’t be:  Humans are, in general, pretty lazy. If we weren’t, we wouldn’t have invented farming and the internet. That neither have, in the long game, reduced work levels or stress is an irony for a whole other debate.

And then there is ‘work ethic’. I remember my parents, and my parents’ parents, moaning about the poor work ethic of the young. Each generation blaming the one before. But ‘work ethic’ in terms of resilience to hard physical graft appears to have made way for the need of resilience to mental work ethic. It seems that mind goes before body these days.  And, if our increasing waste band is anything to go by, the proof is in the pudding, so to speak.

But what has this to do with mystery shopping?  Firstly, business owners don’t see what’s happening ‘on the floor’. We no longer hover over our teams watching their every move. Tech has enabled our physical removal for a large part of our work. Secondly, it’s not great for morale (sorry ‘mental health’) to issue corporal punishment for oversights, misdemeanours, or idleness. Fear doesn’t work anymore.

Using a third party to highlight the importance of following procedures and of working together to create better workflow, takes away the need for authoritarian management and blame culture.  Mystery shoppers don’t have any emotional investment in the business, and they are not biased. They are there to simply say what their experience was as a customer.  We are your eyes, your ears, your consultants and your business development specialists.   

So, our client, should give themselves a pat on the back, because, by investing in our services, they have prevented further review leakage of possibly thousands and thousands.

Advantages of Mystery Shopping

How Mystery Shopping can identify the small things so that your customers leave on a high and not on a sigh! This was my lunch earlier this week. After several attempts to open the ‘sachets of dread’, I went without vinegar. For my life! I don’t know why we still have these tiny packets of frustration. I don’t know the percentage of the human race that can open them, but it must be under 5%,

Why Customer Surveys Won’t Tell You The Truth

In the hospitality industry the dropout rate for customer surveys, which take 10+ minutes, is around 30–40%.  For shorter, well-designed surveys, dropout rates are still typically around 20–30%. What’s the impact of this? Well, you might say that ‘it doesn’t matter if some customers drop out as we have plenty that do complete them’. But what you may not be factoring in is that many customers lose interest and click at random to get through

Intercepting Complaints

Check-backs and complaint handling go hand in hand. Intercepting a problem before a customer tells you, or Google, not only prevents negative word-of-mouth but can increase revenue through loyalty and positive PR.

Use our fun PEP talk sheets to support your front-line teams in learning how to avoid complaints.

Engaging Conversations

Building a natural and genuine rapport with guests can be the most positive and memorable part of their dining experience. Whilst the food and the environment can be remarkable by itself, making a customer feel that they are more than just a table number, has a far wider reach in terms of spreading positive word-of-mouth.

Use our fun PEP talk sheet to support your front-line teams in learning how to have engaging conversations.

Positive Body Language

Being able to communicate positivity, and with enthusiasm, encourages customers to reciprocate in the same manner. However, most of us are unaware of how we are perceived by others and, whilst we may think we are coming across as welcoming and friendly, our body language could be telling a different story.

Use our fun PEP talk sheet to support your front-line teams in understand the importance of self-awareness.

Relevant Recommendations

Team members need good product knowledge to be able to describe and enthuse, but often don’t know what many of the dishes taste like. A lack of upselling is also often due to a lack of confidence in knowing where to start a conversation that leads to a recommendation.

Use our fun PEP talk sheet to support your front-line teams in learning how to upsell.
