Our expert mystery shoppers in London go undercover to step into your customers’ shoes, offering detailed and actionable feedback on how your brand is perceived. This invaluable insight highlights your strengths and identifies areas for improvement, empowering you to analyze and improve every aspect of your service and enhance your customer experience.

2. Boost your Customer Satisfaction

If your customers leave your business after having had an enjoyable experience, they are much more likely to give you great reviews and come again and tell their friends.  Our mystery shopping services focus on identifying opportunities to elevate your service quality, helping to ensure that every customer leaves with a positive impression of your business.

3. Improve your Online Reviews and Reputation

We know that people will rely on reviews to determine which shop, bar, hotel or other venue they choose to go to.  In today’s digital world, reviews can make or break a business. Negative experiences can quickly overshadow positive ones. But by addressing issues identified by our mystery shoppers, you can proactively enhance customer experiences and build a strong online reputation that drives new customers through your doors.

London’s market is diverse and competitive, so it is essential for you to be able to differentiate your business from the competition. At Silent Customer, we provide insights into what your competitors are doing and how you can stay ahead, ensuring your brand remains top-of-mind for customers.

The Evolution of Mystery Guest Reports

15 years ago, mystery guest reports were very much about ticking boxes:   ‘Was cutlery delivered on a tray?’ ✅  ‘Was your beer set down with the label facing you?’ ✅ ‘Were you offered coffee?’ ✅   Then, the nitty gritty, protocols became more relaxed, and the mystery guest reports became more about engagement and subjectivity, focussing on how customers were made to feel:   ‘How did you rate the food/service/ambiance? Please explain’. 💯   Subjective

Is The Casual Dining Marketing Saturated?

Karen Bosher wrote a great post about the sadness of the demise of another burger chain and how many hospitality groups are only surviving through perpetual investment. It prompted the expected cheerleader comments of “here, here” support. Except for one comment from an MD, not in hospitality, which got me thinking. He said it was down to ‘poor business planning, and that ‘the market is saturated with food joints’.  Harsh! But is he wrong?

Why Faking Online Reviews is Lose-Lose-Lose

I run a mystery guest company which aggregates reviews as one of its services but, I’m ashamed to say, even I have fallen foul to a company that faked its reviews. It cost me thousands and I had a near breakdown as they failed to build a time-critical e-commerce website. Google didn’t give two hoots, nor did Trust Pilot, and, nor did the Action Fraud or HMRC when, further down the line, we discovered that

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.
