How to increase customer service through retail theft prevention.

Many companies start using anti shoplifting and other retail theft prevention tools for the purpose of reducing theft.  What you may not have considered is that these tools also increase sales and customer service.

A very prominent anti shoplifting tool is the Checkpoint security system.  A Checkpoint security system can have several different components depending on your store.  All Checkpoint systems are installed on a custom order basis depending on the needs of the store. One of the components that helps increase sales while also preventing loss are the Checkpoint security tags.  Checkpoint security tags are sensor tags that work with your Checkpoint systems door alarm to alert associates of possible theft.  Since shoplifters do not like the attention that this system brings they are more likely to leave your product alone and try to steal elsewhere.  This means that you have available product on your shelves to service your customers.  It’s hard for clients to purchase merchandise when it’s been stolen and you don’t have it available.  Thus the reduction in theft also increases sales as you have the product available to meet the needs of you customer.

Another customer service function of retail theft prevention programs is the cameras system that is a part of the Checkpoint security system.  Cameras, particularly Public View Monitors, allow customers to know that the on-goings of the store are being recorded.  This is a major deterrent to armed robbery and other crime.  Many robbers will not rob a store where they can clearly see they are being recorded.  It is better for them to take their chances somewhere else.  This provides a safer environment for your customers which is a major customer service function.
