Mystery Shopping Forums
If you want to learn a lot of about mystery
shopping, make friends, and have a little bit of fun…then participating
in a ‘mystery shopping forum’ just might be for you.
A forum is a meeting place. It is an online discussion group. It is a place to ask questions and share your knowledge. But forums are also about making friends and building a community. In an ‘anonymous’ profession like mystery shopping, they can be a great way to connect with other people who are just like you.
One thing to keep in mind though: Forums can be addicting. You might notice yourself spending more and more time reading the forum, and less and less time actually out there mystery shopping.
There are a lot of mystery shopping forums out there — some of them big, some small. Each is different in its own way. There are even ‘private’ forums out there, that you have to be invited to. The best way to get invited to one of those is to become a valuable participant in a public forum.
Here is a list of some forums:

Here is a list of some forums:
- MysteryShopForum – This is my favorite mystery shopping forum! OK…so that’s because I started it…but it has a core group of members who are fun, intelligent, and very helpful. It’s a great group and I highly recommend that you join them.
- Volition Forums — This is the ‘big’ mystery shopping forum. It has been around a long time, and has a lot of members. It is also very strict. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, because it does help keep such a big community under control.
- MSFreedom – This forum requires registering before you can read anything. It has a solid community and good discussions.
- MSPA Forums – This is the forum put on by the Mystery Shopping Providers Association. It is not very active, but the ‘beginners’ section has some good information for, well, beginners.
