Mystery Customers
To keep to the standard we expect of our staff, venues covered by Dove Security are regularly visited by our Mystery Customers.
We have three types of person who will report back to us with there findings. If a venues staff score less than 85% then the team is monitored very closely to find out problem areas and then directed to make the necessary changes.
Types of Mystery Customers used:
- Young Female
The young Female is specifically chosen to look under the age of 18 years (although she will be over 18 years). She will approach the front door of a venue to see if the door staff will ask her for identification to prove her age. Also she will spend time in the venue to see if a female would find the venue and staff intimidating
- Investigator
Will spend time in a venue to see if it has a drugs problem, if the staff are giving away drinks, if the door staff are letting people in for free Etc.
- Mr Average
Will spend time in venue to find out the personality of a venue and if the door staff are suited to that type of place
