It is also a good idea to proof read or review what you have written before sending it to a shopping company or anywhere else in public. Once it is out there it is available for anyone to see including future employers. Many of the people that are complaining there are no jobs have no writing skills.

I just finished readinf through a large number of blogs on mystery shopping. Interesting. I live in a rural area of Tx. and I signed up with Shadow Shoppers in June and within a week I had job offers coming in. I've been busy as I want to be since then. The pay could be better but it's my choice. I like the freedom to choose and schedule as I want. I'm a grandmother and I keep my grandkids. This works great. I won't get rich but it's keeping me busy and active! I work for 2 of the prefered companies. Thanks! Liz Hi! I just finished readinf through a large number of blogs on mystery shopping. Interesting.

Mon, 15 Feb 2010 02:44:43 +0000 http://mysteryshoponline.com/blog/4-scheduling-companies/#comment-8081 I've been shopping for a little over a year. From the dates I'm seeing from these postings, not many follow-through. These newsletters are invaluable. One of the essential keys to mystery shopping is a stick-to-it approach. I live in a very large city but, I've done 800 number telephone shops throughout the country. These don't always pay much but, you can do them in your pajamas. As for Shadow Shopper I too paid for the certification however, I got one of my best and current shops from them. These shops require little time or effort, and pay very well. I made $2700 from them alone last year. Keep in mind, proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling is a must. If you need to upgrade these skills, many of the companies have sample writings. Use them. Happy shopping! I’ve been shopping for a little over a year. From the dates I’m seeing from these postings, not many follow-through. These newsletters are invaluable.

It is not a mystery shopping company. It's more like a job board. What you are paying for is to have job opportunities delivered to your inbox. You can register with them for free and even though you can't see who most of the companies are, they can see your information. I got my first job because a company got my information from SS and contacted me. I did that job and did it very well, so I decided it was worth it to get started. I paid a trial gold membership($4.95) and started applying for as many jobs as I could. I signed up with every company that I could that came through SS. I'm still signing up with companies.I got that first job on September 30,2009. In October, I did about 8 jobs and so far this month, I've done close to 25. I dropped the SS membership after the trial was over. It was definitely worth the $4.95 though. It's a good way to get your information out to the companies that have the jobs. I think anyone who registers and doesn't get jobs might be doing something wrong. I hope this helps someone that's trying to break into the business.
