MYSTERY SHOPPING SERVICES

Do You Know How Your Business Is Actually Treated at the Ground Level?

At Indian Detective Services, Mystery Shopping is not a customer feedback exercise or a marketing survey. It is a controlled, observation-based investigation designed to evaluate how employees, outlets, or service teams actually behave when management is not watching. We assess real customer experience, policy adherence, ethical conduct, and service discipline—exactly as it happens on the ground.

For us, mystery shopping is not about ratings or checklists. It is about truthful observation. Our investigators operate as: real customers, real enquiries, real service seekers. This allows us to capture: genuine employee behaviour, real compliance gaps, actual customer treatment. Not rehearsed responses.

When Businesses Approach Indian Detective Services for Mystery Shopping

Organisations typically reach out to us when they want to verify:

whether staff follow company policies in practice
how frontline employees treat customers when unsupervised
if brand standards are being maintained across locations
whether unethical practices are occurring quietly
if internal training is actually effective
why customer complaints or revenue leakage exists

In most cases, management assumptions differ sharply from reality.

Why Indian Detective Services Uses an Investigation-Based Mystery Shopping Model

Traditional mystery shopping often fails because: staff sense audits, behaviour changes temporarily, reports focus on scores, not risk. Our approach works because: investigators blend in naturally, scenarios are realistic, behaviour is captured without alert, This reveals what truly happens, not what is staged.
