I see gas station shops for the first time in my area for MF. How involved are they, I have done that require pictures for other companies and wanted to know what is necessary for these.

They currently have two brands in my area, one just moved from another company. Both are reasonably easy, but I would wait until they go above base pay.

The ones in my area alternate between a regular mystery shop and an announced audit. The regular mystery shop requires 3 photos and a quick convenience store visit/purchase and gas purchase. Very easy. The announced audit is more involved and requires you to announce yourself to the store employee. The pay is the same for both so I avoid the announced audits - too demanding for the pay for me.

The ones for market force I can’t read the guidelines before I accept. What are the guidelines compared to previous announced audits? The ones that are in my home town and towns I am in all the time. I am reluctant To say I am a mystery shopper. Since I live in rule America I am most likely to do an announced audit at a gas station 40 miles away from the city I am in

In itself, the audit is not much different then the inspections from other MSC's. Perhaps a little more nit-picky then others. However, the pay offered is ridiculously low. I have only done it once, and that was more out of curiosity in what was (when I scheduled it) a time I anticipated being slow. (that then became busy after scheduling and I would regret taking it for that reason). I would not do the audit again unless significantly bonused.

I accepted one of the revealed audits for MF. After I printed out the guidelines, which were 36 pages long, I immediately cancelled it. Too much work for too little pay.

The shops are a C--P I am seeing here in CO were done by Alto 360 in the past and are equal to any normal Shop and reveal. Clean pumps and forecourt with 5 to 12 pic plus infraction photos. You need to wait for the make offer price to make them worth the time my humble opinion.
