Is This The Answer? – Wardrobing Tags

Are Wardrobing Tags really the answer to solve the problem of refund fraud in your store? Yes. Yes they are. Wardrobing tags, or more specifically Alpha Shark Tags are an easy and comprehensive way to determine if a refund should be taken.
If the Alpha Shark Tags is still on and un-tampered with, then there shouldn’t be a reason to suspect wardrobing. However, to really put an end to wardrobing retail and other more costly forms of refund fraud, there needs to be another action plan put into place.
When you clarify your return policy, customers have a better chance of understanding what they can and cannot do even before a purchase is made. It is easier to retain your customer base when they understand what the ground rules are. There is nothing more frustrating than trying to make a legitimate return, only to find out that the store will not allow it.
That means you need to make sure your return policy is clear and concise, while still protecting your inventory. A few examples are to start with posting your return policy in writing where the customer can see it. You can reinforce this by printing it on the back of the receipt, or adding a second attachment that has the return policy on it.
Secondly educate your employees to educate your customers. Have them verbally explain the policy as the customer is making their purchase. This is especially crucial if they are buying something that has special return considerations like a shortened time frame or all items must be in their original packaging.

The Front Line of Defense- Employee Background Checks

I speak often to the front line of defense that retailer’s should implement concerning merchandise and inventory security. The front line of defense also relates to company assets- including your employees. If you are not conducting employee background checks, you are failing to support your front line.
Your front line defense as it relates to your employees is the line of communication and representation between your company and your customers. If this front line does not represent your business, as you see fit, your sales will suffer from customers who leave and will not come back.
Customers are very in tune with how employees act and interact. Often, our customers see and understand more about our employee’s behavior than what we ever will. They see them at their best and also at their worst. Your customers see the actions of our employees when we are not there. That is the most important time to understand what our employees are doing.
They are not going to act out when we are there, they will act out when we are not. If we have hired employees who do not have drive, motivation or integrity, it will become most apparent the second we leave the building. 
Pre employment screening and other employee background checks help to keep your front line strong. You can better ensure these employees have the knowledge, skill, and integrity that you need them to have in order to fully represent you to the best of their abilities.

More Than One- Alpha Spider Wrap

The Alpha Security Alpha Spider Wrap has a close cousin- the Alpha Spider Web. These retail anti theft devices are designed for products in blister packs and clamshells.
The Spider Web’s unique multi-strand steel cable mesh bag presents an excellent visual deterrent that allows open merchandising without the risk.

The key features of the Alpha Spider Web are its thin, sleek design. It is easy to apply and remove while still being tough, secure and reusable. It protects hard-to-secure clamshell merchandise because the two mesh bag sizes expand easily to accommodate different package sizes in both AM and RF models.

Let The Sun Shine In- Checkpoint Tags

As with many accessories, glasses have always been problematic in trying to protect form shoplifters. It’s not just sunglasses that need protection it is also prescription glasses. Now, thanks to Checkpoint tag compatible Alpha Security technology, you can (as they say) protect this year’s hottest sunglasses and prescription eyewear with the Eyewear Tag.
These Eyewear Tags are small attachments that fit on the glasses’ earpieces. The Eyewear Tag provides durable construction with a protective cushion that securely holds and protects eyewear. They are easy to apply and remove, and easily reused for the next pair of glasses that comes into your inventory. Training your employees on how to use and reuse them will be a breeze.
This clothing security comes in two sizes in RF clothing alarm technology and three sizes in AM technology. This makes it even easier for your clothing security tags to seamlessly incorporate with your Checkpoint tags and existing clothing alarm.
Even better for you and your customers is how small and unobtrusive the Eyewear Tags really are. As with any other clothing security tags, you wouldn’t want to inconvenience your customers in the name of theft prevention. The tags are fitted so the flat side is inward- eliminating bulk for when a customer is trying the glasses on.

Enhance Your Products- Alpha Nano Gate

The Alpha Security Alpha Nano Gate extends the value you get when using the Alpha 3 Alarm products. Instead of spending exorbitant amounts of money for a large, unattractive, and bulky tower system to prevent shoplifting, you can invest a comparatively minimal amount for a sleek, attractive system.

It is easy to install. All of the directions and equipment needed arrive in one package to simplify the process. You don’t need to have an expensive technician complete the installation process, if you would rather do it yourself.

Aesthetic design complements every store environment. This makes it great for independent boutiques, liquor stores, or any other small business application that uses the Alpha 3 Alarm retail anti theft devices.
Plug-n-Play makes it easy for everyone to use: Plugs into electrical outlet. An audible alarm sounds for 2 minutes if main power is interrupted from either intentional tampering or other power outages.

Make A Good Impression- Wardrobing

I recently had a chance to interview several recent college graduates. We talked about the opportunities that were opening up to them, now that they had their degrees. The conversation then turned to interviewing skills and general interviewing tips for their job hunt. I wasn’t expecting the moral conversation about wardrobing that was about to follow.
 As we talked about how to dress professionally, one of the grads started talking about how she is always prepared because she buys a new outfit for each interview and then returns it. She talked about how the hardest item to return was shoes. When you wear them outside, they immediately begin to show wear on the soles- retailers look for that at the returns desk. Everything else was pretty easy to return.
She figured out that if a suit jacket has the price tag on the sleeve she could bend the plastic on the attachment and slide it carefully through the hole in the price tag. Instead of clipping the plastic piece, she pushes it back inside the sleeve for the interview. 
After she is done, she bends the plastic end back through the hole of the price tag. By doing this, the employer never sees the evidence of her wardrobing, and the retailer that she is returning the outfit to never suspect anything because the tag is still attached.

An Easy Way To Wardrobe- Alpha Shark Tag

Alpha Security is very acutely aware of the problems that customers who are into wardrobing can cause. Wardrobing is when a customer buys merchandise –primarily clothing- and returns it after being worn. To prevent the majority of wardrobing, Alpha Security designed the Alpha Shark Tag.
The Alpha Shark Tag is a small red plastic tag that is attached to the front of a garment in a very conspicuous place. It is to be removed by the customer after they purchase the item. Once the tag is removed, the retailer will decline the refund of that item.
This work wonderfully with clothing, as it is intended to. Shoes, on the other hand are different. The tags are not designed to fit onto shoes. This means that in order for your employees to discern a legitimate return versus a return involving wardrobing, you have to look for other clues.
The two primary places to look are at the foot bed and the sole. If you look inside the shoe, a worn shoe will start to show imprints of toes. Because this is not always reliable, look also to the sole for evidence of wear. When a shoe is worn outside of a house, you can see scuffs on the soles. You will also see tiny bits of dirt and gravel imbedded in it.

One in Six- Wardrobing Retail

There are some staggering numbers that have come out recently regarding the practice of wardrobing retail stores. One in six women admit to having purchased an item that they knew they were only going to wear one time.
It gets even worse. Of those women, one in eleven of them are wardrobing habitually. That means that this is a part of their day to day lives, and are probably one of the stores “best customers” since they are in all the time buying things. Ugh.
Special occasion items are one of the biggest victims of wardrobing. You have the fashionista that is desperately trying to keep up with the latest trends, the high school prom go-er who wants a beautiful dress, but can’t afford it, and the ladies of society who wouldn’t be caught dead wearing the same thing twice.
Whether through society’s pressure or simply an internal desire to be better than the next, wardrobing retail is a way to stay ahead of the curb. Many of these women will go to great lengths just to keep the merchandise in pristine condition so they can be assured of getting their full refund later.
Since so few retailers use wardrobing tags, it is easy to get away with. That just adds to these women’s ability to rationalize what they are doing and disregard that this is another form of refund fraud.

What Kind Of Damage Can Be Done? – Background Checks

Have you ever stopped to wonder how much damage a single employee can do? Depending upon your business structure and environment, an employee can create minimal damage or maximum destruction. Before we talk about background checks, we need to look at the ways and employee can ruin a business.
In the most common ways, employee can cause inventory losses. They can steal, defraud, or simply be so oblivious to policy and procedure; they cause losses through their negligence and inattentive behaviors. These financial implications create a tangible loss in your inventory, and an increase to your merchandise costs due to repurchasing your inventory to satisfy necessary stock levels.
The next level of damage comes in less tangible ways. A bad apple employee can create devastating issue with morale. The worse your employees feel, the less productive they become, and the more they turn off customers who will go some place else to shop. Once it starts, it is difficult and can sometimes take years or massive employee turnover to remedy. Costing you money in lost sales and increased training costs for rehires. It also takes away your productive time as you are spending more time dealing with employee issues. 
Finally, a bad hire can be devastating to your financial or proprietary knowledge. Restaurants that have a “secret sauce” have had employees steal the recipe so they can copy it or sell it for their own profit. Are you innovative or have proprietary advantages? Don’t think you are invulnerable to this sort of attack.
Background checks can help you eliminate these hires and these problems before they even begin.

Alpha Security Alpha Spider Wrap has three different levels of security needs. There is the basic line, which has a typical one-alarm functionality. The Alpha Spider Wrap is also available with the Alpha 2 Alarm and the Alpha 3 Alarm.
