The Secrets of Secret Shopping
Exclusive Webinar:
How to know what your hotel staff is really
telling prospects and how they’re
really treating customers
November
2009 - Listen in on telephone sales pitches and reservations calls. Find
out what the housekeeping staff really says to guests or how the front
desk treated a late arrival at 11 o’clock at night. Call it Mystery Shopping
or Secret Shopper—the chance to see and hear how your crew performs when
you’re not listening and watching.
Now, in a fast-paced UpSell Training (www.upselltraining.com) 30-minute Webinar, learn about The Secrets of Secret Shopping and make sure your people are getting it right. The Webinar will be Friday, November 13, from Noon-12:30pm ET (9-9:30am PT). Price: $59. Click here to register: http://www.upselltraining.com/webinar.htm Course Outline
Secret shoppers excel at catching your people doing something… right. Catching them keeping to standards. Catching reservations people reminding business travelers about the new flat-screen TVs and the remodeled workout room. Catching group sales people waxing enthusiastic about the catering chef and the Tiki room decorations. If you already use a mystery shopping service, you’ll learn new ways to make it more effective. (Ever consider using it to check out competitors or job candidates?) If you’ve never used mystery shopping and wondered about how it all works, this is your chance. You’ll get the nuts and bolts of it, hear the effect of it, and have the chance to answer all your questions about it in this quick half-hour Webinar.
