Comprehensive COVID-19 Secret Shopper Study Reveals Las Vegas Hospitality and Gaming Brand/Cleanliness Perceptions

Published

on

 

Experience Strategy Associates, a boutique consulting group focused on assisting organizations with customer experience and branding strategy, in partnership with HS Brands Global, a global leader in deploying field resources to verify and assess expectations of some of the world’s favorite brands, announced results from a comprehensive secret shopper study focused on perceptions of how brands are managing operations through a  COVID-19 lens.

Secret shoppers were sent out to evaluate 600 customer touch-points across the LV Strip, LV Locals and Downtown LV gaming properties on re-opening weekend and again two weeks later to learn how well brands were maintaining consistent safety standards and where there may be opportunity to continue to focus for optimal brand perception.

According to the study, the LV Strip properties and Downtown properties scored the highest consistently among all three key segments.

“This is a very positive story,” said Greg Chase, Founder and Chief Thought Provoker of Experience Strategy Associates. “This data was very specific to key elements that would ultimately make a customer feel safe or not, such as if sanitizer machines were functional and if they observed employees cleaning public areas, which we know has a lot of consumer focus in the present time.”

Secret shops were conducted across three key segments, Downtown LV properties, LV Locals Casinos and LV Strip Properties on both re-opening weekend and again two weeks post re-opening, totaling over 560 customer touchpoints.

  • Top 5 Areas for Opportunity Across All Segments to Improve Customer Perception Amid COVID-19
    • Allowing customers to see some element of sanitation practice on table games
    • Ensuring Staff are proactively offering masks to customers who are not wearing them or do not have on their person
    • Supporting staff in enforcing social distancing standards in F&B venue lines
    • Allowing customers to see staff cleaning and sanitizing F&B tables and chairs
    • Ensuring sanitizer dispensers are properly functional

Prime Skill Games Inc. Official Response to AGCO Press Release

prime-skill-games-inc.-official-response-to-agco-press-release

 

As CEO of Prime Skill Games Inc., I feel compelled to address recent comments made by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario regarding so-called unapproved gambling machines in convenience stores across the province.

Let me be perfectly clear

Our machines are not gambling devices. They are entirely skill-based, fully compliant with the law, and built on the fundamental idea that players are in control. The outcome of every session is determined solely by the player’s ability, not by random chance.

Prime Skill Games is proud to be the only true skill game operating in Ontario today.

We categorically reject any suggestion that our products fall under the definition of unregulated gambling. Such statements are inaccurate, misleading, and fail to recognize the critical distinction between games of skill and games of chance.

We stand firmly behind the legality of our machines and the integrity of our operations. We will demonstrate this through every available means, whether through legal documentation, expert analysis, or, if necessary, before the courts. We are prepared and unafraid to defend the truth.

To our players, partners, and business community, we want to reassure you that our mission has not changed. We are committed to offering a responsible, transparent, and innovative entertainment experience. We will not be intimidated by broad and baseless accusations, and we will continue to move forward with strength and clarity.

 

Sincerely
