Never worked for Ann Michaels, experiences?

I've never shopped for them before, possibly because I only now live in an area where their shops are available. I just picked up a few alcohol compliance shops for them that sound easy enough, would like to do a whole route if they go well. What/how has everyone's experience with them been?

(p.s., does anyone know if/how you can change your username on here? It's driving me nuts!)

Poor customer service? Don't get mad; get video.

I shop with them several times a year. I don't know if this is across the board, but they have an account manager for the clients I shop. She schedules and edits, and is great to work with. Good communication, payment is timely.

They are great to work for.

I have only completed two assignments for them in 16 years and was paid as agreed.

I recently picked up a few airport shops for the first time this summer as I was flying through one of their airports that seems hard to schedule. The shops and reports were fairly easy. They also communicated well and paid on time. I had a good first experience with them.

I have done a few shops a month for them, mainly parking ones. They are prompt on both paying and answering questions.

I’ve picked up a few of their”easy appearance shops” here locally and they are, as advertised, easy. The pay is appropriate for the Amount of work/time spent on location, about 20 minutes including the report done in an app. They pay pay promptly. The first one I did for them was bonused because it was in the middle of nowhere.

Fair, easy to work with. They used to have a burger client wanted a pretty detailed narrative but the reimbursement/ pay was in line with the expectations. Pay has always been on time.

I have done airport shops and some others for Ann Michaels. I have never had a problem completing the shop or getting paid.

Shopping Southeast Pennsylvania, Delaware above the canal, and South Jersey since 2008

Airport shops for them are easy. The children’s clothing store was a tough report. I always had it come back for editing.

When starting, I worked for them, but haven't seen anything here for ages, will take a look...thanks for the reminder. Never had a problem.

Live consciously....

I ended up doing 14 of their alcohol compliance shops and they were easy and they all went really smoothly! I hope there’s more in the future

I used to shop for them regularly doing a furniture store. One time, the editor came back with so many ridiculous questions I finished it up and never took another job from them. That was at least 5 years ago. I just can't get by that, plus I don't see much in my area anymore that interests me.

I know what you mean. I just had a bad experience with a popular MSC, and it’s just not worth it to work for them again sometimes.

I put up with the children's clothing store for awhile because my kids only wore expensive brands; then I resold everything on eBay for more than what I paid once they were done with it.

I have shopped a clothing store multiple times for them with no issue..reporting is more of a narrative style which isnt my favorite but you do get used to it after awhile..not sure if this applies to the compliance shops

Shopping Idaho and Oregon/Idaho border region.
