Maritz Audits: No way to review guidelines?

There's a Maritz audit with a generous bonus which I want to take, but have never done an audit with Maritz before. I have done some mystery shops with them, and always knew the guidelines beforehand so I knew what I was getting into. But with this audit, there is no link for me to review project details or guidelines. Does anyone know how easy/difficult these are and what is involved? Also, I'm not really understanding why they want me to agree to it without reading even a brief summary first. All it's telling me is that it's for a gas station.

When you self-assign the shop and then click the "get shop" tab, a page opens up asking questions about your ability to perform the shop and your relationship with other industries. After answering those, the next page announce you are eligible to conduct the shop. click the button and it will give you a short synopsis of the shop.

Remember, you can go through this entire process without having the shop assigned.

If I do not like the shop's guidelines (very seldom), I just click out of the page. As I've stated before, familiarize yourself with the Maritz tools. Don't be afraid to click on the buttons. You can always call and just tell them that "Oops! I clicked on the wrong button by mistake". Although I do not recommend doing that very often!

Almost all gas stations shops have lengthy and detailed requirements. You will spend a lot of time preparing for and completing the shop. It probably is not worth it for a one-off job, unless the bonus is substantial. It could be worth it in the long term if you do a lot of them.

mystery2me is correct. There is a learning curve to the gas stations. Each brand has it's own requirements. They are easy once you have done a few but not so much at first. For example, there is a station of a particular brand that regularly gets a $25 bonus in my area. I don't do it because learning the guidelines for one station is just not worth it to me. I already do 3 brands and am reluctant to add more.
With that being said, I do recommend you try them if there are enough to make it worthwhile in the long run. Once you get the requirements down and know what to look for they can be a very lucrative addition to your shopping routes.

French Farmer, I was sure I had familiarized myself with the Maritz tools, which is why I couldn't understand why it wouldn't give me a summary. When I clicked "get shop" the questions didn't come like they had with other shops I'd applied for. And no synopsis. I spoke with a scheduler about it, and when she asked if I wanted the shop (she called because she said she saw I was interested) I mentioned I would like to see guidelines first. She said there was not a way to do that unless I agreed to take it. I'm guessing my idea of guidelines and her idea are different because then I said I really just want to have an idea of what is required before I agree. She then proceded to give me a short explanation of what the shop entails. She lost me when she mentioned 12 photos and I turned it down. I'll stick with the 12.00 gasoline shops with no photos.

Martiz funny from today..... GINORMOUS incentive..... hmmmmmm yeah right....

Those shops tend to be easy and I fly through the site in about 25 minutes. From this company they did indeed give me a wonderful incentive to go to a place some distance from here on short notice--$200, (two HUNDRED). They asked me how soon I could do it and I replied "as soon as you send me a confirmation email specifying the amount I'll be straight out the door". I was rolling down the road in about half an hour.

Does anyone else experience few shops offered by Maritz right now? Or am I just out of rotation?
