The Property Marketing Strategists have partnered with hereSAY, to bring the only bespoke mystery shopping service to the PBSA sector. Providing specific KPIs relating to PBSA and using actual students from the cities being assessed to carry out the shops.

The service monitors a choice of enquiry methods including in-person visits, online enquiries, phone calls and social media over the key months of the leasing cycle. Identifying sales wastage and ensuring that all leads are being maximised, providing a laser focus on the ROI of marketing.

Every client has its own dedicated Qlik dashboard showing the full data and analysis after each round of shops, with scoring broken down over seven categories:

  • Previewing experience

  • Viewing experience

  • Presentation

  • Site information and inclusions

  • Post-viewing experience

  • Brand marketing
