New venue, ancient equipment

It is a sad fact that in today’s job market and national economy a lot of us in the Retail Security or Operations field end up having to move about quite a bit.  More often than not the reason is that the company you were working for didn’t have the budget to keep you (or even your whole department) on the payroll.  I understand fully the need for corporations to ‘trim the fat’ in order to survive but the area they certainly shouldn’t be skimping on is Retail Security or a fairly current suite of Anti-Theft Devices.

A few months back I fell victim to the budget cut goblins at a certain retail firm but was quickly picked up by another company looking to completely rebuild their Loss Prevention department from the ground up.  They had a lot of great ideas as they pertained to Anti-Shoplifting setups and deterrence over apprehension but there was one major problem; not a single piece of their Anti-Theft Device inventory was younger than twenty years old.  In fact most of it was much older.

If you have a store that is trying to cut back on spending but not on Loss Prevention make sure they consider all the Anti-Shoplifting alternatives so you don’t feel like you are fighting high-tech, computer savvy thieves with old-fashioned, pre-calculator equipment.

Everybody Knows em’

If you are looking for ways to upgrade your stores retail security with anti theft devices, EAS labels and tags are one of the most common ways to go.  One of the reasons why they are such a common tactic is, simply put, because they work.

It is statistically proven that using EAS tags and labels reduce your shrink incurred. Both items and dollars can see a significant reduction in losses.

Why you should use Anti-Theft Devices…

We all know retail security is a tough and necessary game.  There are so many different factors in performing the job that it can seem daunting at times.  What makes it worse however, is that even after you have taken every possible anti-shoplifting precaution or have access to, and use, every anti-theft device on the planet, somehow there is someone out there who will still steal from you. The truth of the matter is,  It doesn’t matter HOW they do it or even WHY they do it, they just do it and that’s all we need to concern ourselves with.  That is why when we get beat (and don’t say you haven’t because we know that’s a lie) we need to learn what our weakness was and adapt to compensate for it.

 An example would be a recent endeavor to stop a series of snatch and grab thefts occurring in our high-end children’s clothing area, which is unfortunately positioned within twenty feet of a main exit.  It took two hits to that area before we realized what was happening and required installing and affixing more anti-theft devices.  When that didn’t work we installed a brand new camera to catch him in the act.  That failed too.  He was too quick and there wasn’t enough time to spot him and apprehend him.

 The solution, move this target section to the far end of the second floor.

 When it comes to retail security you just need to think outside the box to succeed.

Where do I begin?

I don’t even know where to start. I ordered the free samples form RBC Security Solutions, expecting to have a small envelope delivered with one of their labels inside.

 To my utter shock and amazement, there was not a single label inside. There were strips of six different types of labels! I didn’t even know where to start. It was not what I was expecting from a company trying to sell cheap labels and cheap tags. 

There was more product than what I ever expected, and that makes it only that much easier to see what a great representation of anti theft devices this company makes.

 When you can look and feel how the labels are going to work and look, it is easier to make decisions about how to enhance your retail security.

 I could actually take a strip of labels to my thermal printer to make sure it would run through correctly, and they did! That is not something you could do if they had just sent out one lonely label in their bright green envelope.

Tags and Labels Made in the USA

First of all I should say congratulations to anyone who has decided to use any sort of retail anti theft devices. Retail security is a significant issue to any retailer who is trying to save their profits on all fronts. Better yet, congratulations on deciding to use EAS tags and labels for your anti shoplifting needs.

 Now that the decision has been made, it’s time to think about some of the associated costs. You need to have at a minimum, EAS tags or labels and a tower at the entrance to alarm the devices. Just because the cost of prevention is far less than  a loss of merchandise due to theft, doesn’t mean you have to spend your last penny on them.

 By going with a reliable company, it is easy to get cheap tags and cheap labels for your needs. You should be aware that many companies do offer cheap labels and cheap tags that are not made in the USA.

 While they may have a good price, they may end up costing in the long run. Some do not deactivate properly causing customer complaints. Some aren’t activated, which defeats the purpose of even having them. Make sure your company uses tried and true made in the USA tags and labels to really get the most for your money.

The Opportunistic Criminal

Using anti-shoplifting devices such as EAS hard tags and soft tags has really done a great deal to cut down on shoplifting from the opportunist or armature shoplifter in my store. The typical shoplifter is someone that shops at the store regularly, loves the merchandise, but just can’t afford to buy it all the time. These people steal because it is easy and accessible. When you take those things away by implementing retail security or anti-theft devices, you eliminate the probability of armature theft taking place. When you remove the opportunity, you reduce the theft.

 Even when you have an ambitious shoplifter, they tend to be easier to identify when you have anti-theft devices in place. Working in retail security for as long as I have, I’ve seen it all. Recently I had a shoplifter that selected a few shirts that were protected with some hard tags. I didn’t pick up on the person until they were in the corner of our shoe department using the edge of the shelf to try and pry the hard tag off of the items. They were able to wrestle a few of them off the merchandise, but it took them quite some time and a lot of determination. I had several sales floor employees contacting me and letting me know what was going on as it was so obvious. By the time they had removed the tags and concealed the merchandise I was able to contact the police and have them ready to apprehend before they even left the building.

It is getting personal

Do you need a better way to protect your personal care items? I know that we have seen an influx of shoplifters trying to steal personal and beauty care items. I guess it is because the summer is here and everyone wants to look his or her best in their summer attire.

 That doesn’t mean that they should be able to get away with stealing, it just means that we have to find a way to tighten our retail security. Most anti shoplifting processes start with anti theft devices.

 If you have access to rolls of cheap labels, it is easy to add them on the fly. If you start to notice certain items disappearing from your shelves without corresponding sales, slap an EAS label on them.

 If the thieves move on to a different item or product assortment, then start tagging those also. It may not provide the permanent solution for your shrink, but it will buy you some time to figure out a better solution for those items.

 Anything you can do to make it harder for a shoplifter, the more results you will see.

The obvious solution

Have you seen the Value point and value point plus cheap labels yet? If not, definitely go and check them out. I just got my free samples of them and they are pretty amazing.

 I was showing the selection to one of my store managers, and he saw that one of the labels was already printed saying, “Security device enclosed”. He was unsure as to why an anti theft device would be so obvious. He thought they should be hidden and secretive.

 We talked about how retail security isn’t always about the “gotcha” aspect. It is often about prevention. By having a label state that it is in fact a security device designed specifically for anti shoplifting, it is trying to be a warning.

 It is obvious that the inventory is under surveillance and protection. If a potential criminal knows that this piece of merchandise, or this store is not an easy target, they area more likely to move onto the next target. Some of them won’t even steal at all.

 Sometimes it takes an obvious solution to an obvious problem.

Simplified Retail Security…

I am often amazed at how complex we as business leaders tend to make things.  In an effort to always do more and do it better we sometimes just overcomplicate proven processes.  Take retail security for example.  I am amazed at how many different providers there are of anti-shoplifting tools.  Last I checked all EAS tags were created equally. 

 Think about it.  It is the same technology.  Whether you get name brand EAS tags or you get cheap tags you will still be preventing loss by protecting your product.  Anti-theft devices are unnerving for most shoplifters.  Most major studies show that the overwhelming offender is an amateur.  This type of shoplifter only knows one thing; anti-theft devices will get you caught.  If they don’t care whose name is on the tag then why do we?  Why pay for a name brand tag when cheap tags and cheap labels still deter theft.  When you consider switching to less expensive equipment you will still deter theft and save on expenses.  I think that’s called a win-win situation.

Change it up

How cool is it to be able to change things on a whim. Any time the seasons change, we can change clothes. If we want to go with a new hairstyle, go for it! The power of choice gives us the power to adapt as needed.

Retail security in the form of anti theft devices also gives us the power of change. Any time our products change, we can either start a new tagging process, or stop an existing one. Seeing a spike in shrink losses in a different area? That’s an easy fix too. 

Anti shoplifting devices are designed to be adaptable. That is why hard tags are easy to attach as needed, and soft tags or labels can be applied to almost any surface or material. 

Because the soft tags or labels can be run through a thermal printer, they can even be disguised as bar codes or price labels to fit your specific range of products.

 There is no need to let your retail security grow stagnate. Just change it up as you change out your products.
