Getting my first shops with this one was really about taking the end of the month shops that didn't get done. So, if you see stuff this week still out there for August, that would be ideal or try again at the end of another month. I still have to do briefing pre-shop calls more than I expected even with top scores. I've even had to pre-pay to guarantee I would complete a shop which is usually a no-no (and they removed that aspect in later months). The good news for new shoppers is they tend to not bonus enough until too late for most regular shoppers to visit the locations.
My real issue is that like many other MSCs there is a lot of work for very low pay. Also, many of their shops don't track to reimbursement separate from cost of items at event (lump sum pay). While I know you can track this for your own taxes, I wish the firm would do it to reduce even getting to the $600 true not reimbursement threshold which is more unlikely. That would be the biggest change I would suggest to them to have more shoppers be interested. Maybe the like to cycle through new shoppers and are not as interested in tenured shoppers.
