Non-Reveal/Reveal gas stations

July 05, 2022 06:29PM
I have done many non-reveal gas stations, but I would like to try out some of the ones where you complete part of the shop, then reveal, then complete, or the ones where you only reveal if the employee is out of uniform. My question is, are you only able to do a location once since you then couldn't circle back next rotation and be anonymous? Or do you just hope/expect not to be remembered or to encounter different employees? Thanks for the help!

Most, but not all, have rotations. So, if you do a shop one month or quarter, even if you don't have to reveal, you can't do it the next month or quarter. Baiscally, you can do it every other month or quarter. Even if you get the same clerk who remembers you, you just go ahead and proceed like normal. Often near the end of the period when they can't find another shopper, they will lift rotations so you can do it twice (or more) in a row.

Rarely someone recognizes me even if I did it the month before. I dress in a manner that makes me blend in and try not to bring attention to myself. Rotations are in place for most of these, but I do a lot of areas that no one else does so I do them sometimes in back to back months. Make sure you understand that some brands have image shops (brand compliance) and some have mystery shop only. For some brands you can’t do both.

You are correct. I am scheduled for a Customer First, non-reveal shop, and the instructions include this stipulation:

"Also, if you are already qualified as a revealed auditor for Chevron Image, you are ineligible to accept
mystery shops for Customer First."

However, despite that blanket sounding statement, I don't see why you couldn't do a Customer First shop if you have never visited that particular location even if you do reveal shops elsewhere.
