Why Us?
At Retail Maxim, our philosophy of continuously improving customer service and relations with our clients aids us in helping them actively improve their service. We help them to accurately measure customer experience, learning from feedback through our services and the results. This allows us to successfully offer our clients help in a number of ways but most importantly, the one that matters most - improving the service for their customers.
We're proud to say that we hold a sales team of high professionalism and experience. Their development of bespoke reporting systems has produced one of the finest on the market, giving clients a programme to meet their specific needs.
We talk with our shoppers as frequently as possible and, unlike many other Mystery Shopping companies, we meticulously profile our shoppers to specific visits, thus ensuring that all data, reports and analysis collected are built on solid foundations. It makes a difference to the results and this shows in our subsequent reports.
Technology is a fantastic tool which we use to aid us, not control us. We believe that our regular, verbal contact with field staff is a key factor in our ability of producing high quality and consistent data.
