Most of us are familiar with “traditional” mystery shopping gigs – the kind that involve in-person on-site visits to the business being evaluated. But did you know there are also Telephone Mystery Shopping jobs?
Generally, the work involves calling companies and posing as a potential customer to see how they handle the call. At the end of the call, you complete a report with your findings and feedback from the call.
These are “extra cash” gigs as opposed to main jobs. And in most cases you’ll be an independent contractor rather than an employee, with no benefits. On the other hand, the work can be interesting, and who couldn’t use a little extra money?
Following are 6 companies that hire work from home Telephone Mystery Shoppers. They may not all be hiring today, but keep them on your radar as they all hire on a routine basis!
teleXpertise regulary hires both Telephone Mystery Shoppers and Call Evaluator/Quality Call Analysts.
Telephone Mystery Shoppers are responsible for making calls to the companies they are evaluating, so you must be comfortable initiating contact with strangers. According to their site, “Most assignments offer compensation of $3 to $10 per completed shop depending on the complexity of the shop,” and you can expect to earn between $50 – $75 per month in the early stages of your work with them.
