New Forum Suggestion

There have been a few threads on mystery shopping lately. Since making myself known as a shopper and posting a list of companies, I've had a number of queries from MSE'ers by PM/e-mail.

Would it be possible to set up a seperate forum for mystery shopping and merchandising?

I've been an admin on this software before and would like to volunteer my services as a board guide. I am also very aware of confidentiality rules regarding companies and would be willing to keep an eye on inappropriate postings.

I know of 2 other forums on the net who offer this service. However I note the owner of one said here she has closed the board to new members and the other one is tedious with lots of petty bickering. I am a member of an e-mail mailing list on the subject, but it's very hard to follow threads in e-mails, especially when threads go off in two or more directions!
Here I go again on my own....

    I haven't closed my mystery shopping board, it just has a waiting list for new members as we are currently full! Members can still register, but won't be approved immediately.
  • I am privledged to be a member of Squiggles board and would recommend those serious about mystery shopping to join the waiting list. As far as I am aware it is the only board of it's kind that has reps from many of the companies willing to help out. I am surprised you are not a member there Becles, unless you go by a different name.

    Apologies for the misunderstanding. I thought it was closed to new members and wasn't aware of the waiting list.
