Make it Work For You

Retail theft prevention can be a very overwhelming task, especially if criminals already overtaking your store. There is no worse feeling than to stand in the middle of your store and not know which direction you should be looking because you know you are going to miss a shoplifter on the opposite side of the store.

If that is the case, then you need to make a big initial ruckus about your retail theft prevention strategy. One of the first steps is to install a Checkpoint security system in your location. Time and time again, shoplifters say that they will target a store that has no apparent form of anti shoplifting devices like Checkpoint security systems.

The next step is to dedicate some time teaching your staff about retail theft prevention and anti shoplifting best practices. While you may not want every one of your associates to try to make an apprehension, you can focus on customer service initiatives and how they will compliment anti shoplifting tactics.

Customer service has and always will be the best deterrent for shoplifters. Customer service includes greeting the customers promptly, genuinely offering assistance and answering questions. It can even be adding on sales by holding a customer’s purchase at the register so their arms are free to pick up more merchandise.

Shoplifters hate that sort of attention, so make your new policies work for you.
