Can Anti-Shoplifting Devices scare off customers?

Why is retail security so important to running a successful business? Retail anti-theft devices are often seen as a time consuming hindrance and bad PR instead of a valuable tool. The number one reason is customer satisfaction.

 It may seem like customers would be more likely to use the ignorance is bliss mantra when they shop. If there is no apparent sign of retail security, then they should assume they are perfectly safe, right? Not necessarily. If you do not have any visible theft in your store, it could really just be a matter of time before you become a target for shoplifters. Furthermore, this tells your customers that they are probably paying extra to make up for the unprotected merchandise that is walking out the door.

 Shoppers want to feel safe when they shop. A relaxed shopper will take their time and walk the aisles seeing what you have to sell. They are more likely to try on several items in a fitting room instead of just one. They are also in a better mood. That makes it easier on you and your staff to increase your ticket average and decrease your customer complaints. 

A customer that does not feel safe will not do any of those things. If they even decide to buy anything, it will be quick and to the point. Don’t allow petty criminals to scare off your good business.

Add Cheap Labels and Cheap Tags to your Anti-Shoplifting Regime

Retail security involves many different working parts with regards to being anti-shoplifting, some of which are different kinds of retail anti-theft devices used to deter theft. Retail anti-theft devices can, and should, be used where necessary. Also they are very inexpensive and easy to use. Cheap labels and cheap tags can be placed on almost anything. There are so many different types of cheap labels and cheap tags made specifically for different types of merchandise. You can have tags that pin to clothing (without damaging them of course) and labels that stick onto boxes.

 Cheap labels work well to compliment retail anti-theft devices by providing further visual warning to potential shoplifters. Let’s say a security tag is placed on a piece of clothing but it was placed incorrectly, or the clothing was folded in a way where the tag was not visible. Having a label present will let the shoplifter know that that particular item is protected.

 Retail security is essential in maximizing profits. Cheap labels and cheap tags are out there for you to use to scare off and deter those who want to steal from you. By having an anti-shoplifting mindset coupled with great customer service, your store will be a money maker, not a money breaker.

Preventing Return Fraud in 3 Visits or Less

Using retail anti-theft devices can be an effective tool in preventing return fraud in stores with return policies geared toward providing good customer service. Return fraud has been and continues to be a major problem in retail security. ORC (Organized Retail Crime) groups target merchandise that is valuable and easy to steal, which is typically merchandise lacking retail anti-shoplifting devices. The groups take non-tagged merchandise in order to appear legitimate when making a return of the merchandise they had previously stolen.

 Return fraud, when conducted in ORC situations, will usually occur in several visits to the store. When dealing with a chain of stores, these visits may occur one after another as they travel a central interstate or highway.

 The first visit may only involve a subject staging merchandise in a specific and secluded area of the store. The merchandise will probably be the highest valued, easiest to conceal, non-tagged merchandise that they can find. This subject may stage the merchandise in bags prior to leaving.

 The second visit will consist of the concealment and/or theft of the merchandise that was previously staged for them. This visit will probably take no longer than five minutes in the store and is difficult to detect.

 The third visit is where the fraudulent return takes place where the subject will return the merchandise that was previously stolen. These visits will often consist of several different subjects, and all three steps may happen simultaneously with several sets of merchandise. The easiest way to combat return fraud is to protect your merchandise with retail anti-theft devices.

Retail security when Resources are Limited

I was recently brought into a new store as a loss prevention supervisor and have found my resources extremely lacking and my workload practically back breaking.  The store has little in the way of available retail anti-theft devices, no retail security cameras to truly speak of, and the staff is made up of people who are either employee theft suspects or completely clueless in the way of shrink reduction practices.

I know that I am not the first loss prevention professional to encounter such a daunting situation while being assigned a store.  In fact it is not the first time that I, myself, have been put into such a situation.  However there are those among our ranks, usually the newer members of the profession, who might retreat when faced with such obstacles.  For those in the latter camp I have two pieces of advice that might make things easier to tackle. 

The first is common sense.  No matter how bad things in your store might be, don’t try to tackle every problem at once.  Take your issues one at a time in a priority of worst-case to easy-peasy and you’ll save yourself a ton of headaches.

 Secondly, don’t let a lack of resources stop you.  Rather, get inventive with what you have at your disposal.  No cameras?  Enforce a 100% tagging policy.  Not enough staff?  Let your cashiers be your eyes and ears.  Improvisation is the key to solving problems.

Don’t turn your studs into duds

Alpha Security has a new line of retail anti theft devices. They are called Jewelry Lok and are probably one of the best new resources out on the market to prevent shoplifting.

 Some of the problems faced with stud earrings are that they are small, so a shoplifter can easily conceal them. With traditional jewelry cards, it only takes a shoplifter a second to take the backs off and pocket a pair of stud earrings.

 Beyond shoplifting, I have seen customers (or children) take only one earring off a card, drop it and not be able to find it. This renders the earrings virtually unsaleable.

 The Jewel Lok is a quick three-step process to secure your stud earrings to the card preventing shoplifting, loss, and damages.

 First you take the backs off of the earrings and put them in a well thought out holder on the Jewelry Lok. Next you hold the earrings in place while sliding the lock over the posts of the studs. Step three- snap it in place, and voila! Your studs are secure.

 Removal is just as simple. Place the card over the detacher, lining it up with the “ears”. Pull straight up on the card, so you don’t bend the posts. The Jewel Lok stays in place. Next, reattach the earring backs and you are done!

Show, Secure, Sell

What a great way to define Alpha Security’s line of 3 Alarm products. Show off your merchandise. Secure them with retail anti theft devices designed to deter and prevent shoplifting. Sell your customers your products in a comprehensive and user-friendly format.

 Of course, when you have so many options available, it can get overwhelming. You need to have a place to put your retail anti theft devices where they won’t be misplaced, broken, or a hindrance to your daily operations.

 That is one of the reasons why the 3 Alarm products are space efficient. In other words, they are small and therefore don’t take up much space, either on the merchandise, or in a stock room somewhere.

  Show, Secure, Sell also refers to the S3 Key, which is needed to unlock the 3 Alarm products. It was pretty smart thinking to have all of the 3 Alarms use just one detacher. This clears up space on your wrap stands. You don’t need to have several different detachers taking up space as well as creating visual clutter.

 Having access to hard tags, bottle locks, box keepers and Spider Wraps, all with the 3 Alarm capabilities are pretty good in and of itself. Having to use only one S3 Key to detach them is not only space efficient, but cost effective as well.

The broad spectrum

How cool is it to have so many different, and specific retail anti theft devices to prevent shoplifting?

 Retail anti theft devices have come a long way since the days of plain old hard tags. They evolved into dual ink tags, soft tags, and now they are in just about every size and shape imaginable to protect your varied inventory needs.

 Alpha has a wide range of high theft solutions that they have worked hard to ensure meet your high customer service standards. There is a very good reason why Alpha has been doing this for over thirty years.

 Let me point out their line of 3 Alarm products that they have developed. The 3 Alarm refers to the three phase audible alarm embedded into their retail anti theft devices. It alarms at the doors, it alarms if tampered with, and it alarms for ten minutes after it has been removed from the store.

 The 3 Alarm products include bottle locks for liquor and wine bottle security. They also have keeper boxes for items like cosmetics, razors, or colognes. And they have clothing solutions that include a hard tag and a lanyard to protect both garments and accessories.

 When you create such a wide spectrum of products, you know that the technology involved will be consistent regardless of which solution you need.

Just use a little Finesse

When you work with pieces of jewelry, regardless of high end, fashion, one of a kind estate pieces, or costume, you know that you need to be extremely careful with those pieces.

 Most consumers who are looking to purchase a piece of jewelry will scrutinize every centimeter of that piece. They will hold it up to the light, turn it around in the air, and then look some more. Even the tiniest blemish will negate a potential sale.

 The last thing you want is to be trying to satisfy a customer, they finally decide to buy the jewelry and then your employee scratches or mars the jewelry in the checkout process.

 For some, this is a bigger issue for retail anti theft devices than whether or not it will prevent shoplifting. With Jewel Loks, your impeccable jewelry should remain blemish free.

 When I first saw the Jewel Loks, I worried that because they were so fool proof, they would be difficult to remove. If you have to fight with a Jewel Lok, you would run the risk of damaging your pieces.

 So I did a little research into the removal process. How simple it is! You don’t have to shake or wiggle or slide your jewelry. You delicately lay a piece on top of the detacher, and it does the work for you to easily slide the Jewel Loks off.

 All it takes is a little finesse and your jewelry is safely going home with your happy customer.

It will have you jumping through hoops

Solutions to prevent shoplifting accessories like hoop earrings are hard to come by. Hard tags are too bulky to hook onto the earring cards. Even the smaller fashion tags are bulky when used on such a small surface area. They are also not very nice to look at and detract from pristine jewelry displays.

 Soft tags, which can be embedded into the jewelry cards, are not an effective retail anti theft device. The soft tags are either torn off, or the cards themselves are discarded as a shoplifter conceals the earrings.

 Using the new Jewel Lok retail anti theft devices is the new best practice solution that has been tested in several retail stores already. What they have found is that the Jewel Lok is not only simple to use, but also simple to remove at the point of sale and has a much better success rate than its soft tag counterparts.

 There are two locking mechanisms for the Hoop Earring Jewel Loks. The go through the hole in the jewelry card, and the earring slides through the lock and the push buttons lock them securely in place.

 On a side note, the Jewel Loks are reversible so you can use them on either the right or left earring.

 To remove the locks, just place them on the detacher and push the buttons again to release. Just make sure you don’t put credit cards on the detacher as it may demagnetize the strips on the back of credit or debit cards.
