Fundraising & Charity

Who Are Mystery Donors?

Mystery Donors are everyday individuals who pose as potential donors, waiting to be approached by fundraisers. They engage in conversations about the benefits of donating to a chosen charity, providing valuable insights into how donation requests are handled.

To ensure compliance with industry regulations, Mystery Metrics has developed a large panel of trained assessors who evaluate site teams and their approach to fundraising. Some Mystery Donors are equipped with covert video cameras, allowing them to record interactions so businesses can review the experience firsthand.

These Video Mystery Donors travel across the country, conducting diverse mystery shops for Mystery Metrics, helping organisations refine their fundraising strategies and improve donor engagement.

What Is Fundraising Mystery Shopping?

Our tailored fundraising programs at Mystery Metrics are designed to help you evaluate the performance of your fundraisers, agency partners, and donor care teams.

By offering a comprehensive insight program, we collaborate closely with your team to pinpoint areas for improvement and foster positive behaviors. Together, we’ll transform these insights into an award-winning strategy that enables you and your employees to meet key performance indicators (KPI’s) while enhancing the donor experience.

How Does it Work?

 

So, how does it work? Using our specialised assessment methods, we assign our Mystery Donors a specific task, which could involve calling your donations team, visiting a high street location, or attending a stand at a short-term event or expo.

During their assignment, they complete the tasks we’ve outlined, sometimes portraying specific scenarios to test how they are managed. While doing so, they discreetly gather valuable fundraising market research by capturing real-time data from their experience and documenting it through our dedicated mystery shopper mobile app.

“I’ve been working with Mystery Metrics Ltd since 2020, when I started work at what was then the Public Fundraising Regulatory Association. In that time face-to-face fundraising has been through some challenging times, and I’ve regularly been impressed and reassured by the way in which they’ve been able to adapt to the changes, implement new ways of working, and deal with fluctuations in volume, quickly and efficiently.”
