Bestmark is one of the first companies that I started working for when I began mystery shopping. They were very helpful and eager for me to become successful as a mystery shopper. Since that time, I have done automotive dealership shops, retail store shops, and restaurants. Their instructions and forms are clear and easy-to-use. I’ve also been fortunate enough to work with them to complete some long distance jobs, and we were able to negotiate fair bonus and mileage reimbursements for these special situations. On the other hand, I have occasionally accepted jobs from Bestmark that simply don’t pay much, but I know that they are in a bind, and I can trust that they will remember my support the next a higher paying job comes along.
