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.

Simple Retail Theft Prevention that Works

Just like we tend to lock our cars when we want to protect what belongs to us, business owners need to protect the merchandise they offer for sale.  Shoplifting is prevalent where ever you may own a business, and it is not a good idea to leave your products unprotected, for whomever to grab and go.

Anti shoplifting techniques are important for successful businesses, and there are a variety of options available.  One of these is a Checkpoint security system.  Checkpoint systems are a proven contender in the world of retail theft prevention and can be utilized to reduce the losses that businesses are experiencing.

Checkpoint security tags are affixed to your high theft items and activate an alarm should they leave your business without being deactivated or removed.  Checkpoint systems show the potential shoplifter that you as a business owner take your merchandising seriously and like to protect your profits.  The mere presence alone of a Checkpoint security system can help prevent shoplifting by encouraging the shoplifter to go to another business that is not interested in retail theft prevention.

Anti shoplifting can be as simple as making sure you lock your car, and can be as second nature as that.  You own a business, you want to make a profit, and you need to prevent theft in your business in order to be able to do that.  Checkpoint systems can play a key role in that endeavor by offering security for your merchandise and peace of mind for you.  Retail theft prevention can be that simple, and yet the benefits so great.

Beware the Puffy Coat

If you spend any time in retail theft prevention, you know to watch out for coats in the summer. You also know that since the puffy coat became a clothing sensation, it is not only harder to see if someone is concealing merchandise under the coat, but the puffy coat is climbing its way to being one of the top theft items.

Now that the weather is getting colder, stores are again getting their fall shipments, including the problematic puffy coat. So how do you let your buying customers have access to your coats? By installing a Checkpoint security system.

The Checkpoint security system is the most recognizable of all the Checkpoint systems designed for anti shoplifting. It is composed of towers or pedestals at the doors, and the use of Checkpoint security tags on the clothing. When one of the Checkpoint security tags goes through the towers, an alarm goes off.

While great customer service will always be the best anti shoplifting tactic, integrating the Checkpoint system will do wonders for your inventory control. Whether the puffy coat is being stolen, or it is concealing other merchandise (or both!) Checkpoint security tags will help you deter and detect your potential thieves.
