Self Auditing- Stop Shoplifting

Performing a self-audit is a quick way to help stop shoplifting of your high theft merchandise. Using Checkpoint Tags for retail theft prevention is only a part of the equation for success. If those Checkpoint Tags are not consistently used on every article of merchandise, you create an opening for shoplifters to take advantage of your store.

This doesn’t mean that you need to have retail theft prevention like Checkpoint Tags on every single piece of inventory within your store. It means that whatever items you decide need tags are actually being tagged. If you have a specific style or brand of jeans, for example, which is high theft, then each of those pairs requires a tag. It does not mean every pair, of every style and brand of jeans need to be tagged.

A self-audit means taking either a sampling of those tagged items (for large quantities) or all of the items and checking for accuracy. If you conduct a sample of ten items and only five have tags, you are at 50% accuracy. 50% is not going to keep shoplifters at bay. Based on this audit you know where you need to focus your efforts to make sure you are at 100% accuracy.
