Don’t Throw It Away- Clothing Security

June 19, 2014 by Leave a Comment
Would you throw a hundred dollar bill in the trash for no reason? How about a twenty? No? Well maybe you would walk by a trashcan and throw a dollar bill into it without caring; it is just a dollar after all?
If you wouldn’t throw money away on purpose, than you probably keep pretty tight controls on your business’s cash.  
You probably have register reports that tell you how much cash you should have at the end of the day. You probably also count the cash in your safe and any starting banks for your tills. You most likely have a bank deposit log for outgoing deposits, and balance that record against your account statements form the bank every quarter, if not every month. 
How about your merchandise? Do you keep the same level of control on your merchandise as you do your cash?
Do you maintain inventory tracking and counting on a quarterly basis?  Once a quarter might be to frequent for some business, so how about conducting a full inventory once every six months, or once a year?
You have a locking cash register and understand the importance of securing your cash, so why wouldn’t you secure you clothing and other inventory products?
Because you spent your carefully managed and tracked cash on purchasing your inventory, would it not make sense that you should spend as much time and effort in protecting your clothing inventory from losses?

Customer Embarrassment – Checkpoint Tags

June 17, 2014 by Leave a Comment
An online store is also a great way to reach a whole new customer base. Unless you are doing extremely well, you are probably not at a point where you need a separate and distinct shipping warehouse to fulfill your online orders. 
That means you are fulfilling orders out of your existing stock, from your existing brick and mortar locations making it even more important to make sure your employees are packaging orders correctly. 
They need to ensure the product’s size, color, brand and quantity are what have actually been ordered. Your employees also need to make sure that any security tags have been removed or deactivated.
Based upon the product being shipped can effect the potential for customer service fail when the customer receives the product. Soft tags are less likely than hard EAS tags to cause a major issue if they are not deactivated before shipping, but they may still cause some problems for the customer.
If you sell clothing that has a source tag embedded into the product (like some name brand running shoes are) it can cause problems for the customer later on. They might not realize there is a security tag in their shoes, and can potentially set off security systems as they wear these shoes out and about. This can lead to multiple embarrassing alarms, and ill will toward your store for putting them in that situation.

Cheaply Made, Cheaply Defeated- Security Tags On Clothes

June 15, 2014 by Leave a Comment
In order for security tags on clothes to be effective, you have to have a certain level of quality in your clothing security resources and tools. Some retailer’s use cheaply made and cheaply sold clothing security, instead of Checkpoint Tags.
If I was to look closely at these cheap clothing security tags, I would be able to see the actual seam in the middle of the hard shell. On some of them, the seams are actually breaking apart.
Any shoplifter with an ounce of persistence could easily pry the two sides apart with a screwdriver or other tool. Once the two sides are pried apart, the shoplifter has access to the inner locking mechanism, which is what holds the pin in place on your clothing. Once the pin is removed, these clothing security tags have effectively been rendered completely worthless.
Checkpoint tags have a guarantee of quality. They know that if you cannot rely on their product for your clothing security needs, you will spend your money elsewhere. That is why when they seal the clamshell section of their tags together, they do it so it is a permanent seal that will not come undone, or be easily pried apart. Just remember, if the tags are cheaply made, they will cheaply be defeated.

Pulling Double Duty- Anti Theft Devices

June 14, 2014 by Leave a Comment
Do you know that anti theft devices can help you eliminate or reduce employee theft in your business? It took me a long time to figure that out. It wasn’t until I had some actual training in loss prevention that I realized how truly multifunctional cheap tags and cheap labels could be for your retail security.
I knew that anti theft devices were primarily designed for anti shoplifting purposes. What I didn’t know was how these same devices are a theft deterrent for employees. You see when an employee looks to steal merchandise, they go through a very similar process that a shoplifter does. They look for a quiet moment when no one is watching to commit their act. They look to figure out how to get the merchandise out of the store. They also look to see how which merchandise would be best to take.
If the merchandise has no anti shoplifting alarms attached, then the merchandise is more desirable. It will be easier to get out the door undetected by other employees or management.

Are Your Profits Tied Up? – Clothing Security

June 12, 2014 by Leave a Comment
It is not uncommon for retailers to use bulky cable and chain locks to secure entire fixtures of expensive clothes, like jackets or coats. The problem is that these chain locks are often extremely sensitive and are prone to setting off the clothing alarm by very little movement of the product.
That means that an employee needs to be present at all times to detach an item for a customer. When an employee is not there, customers are often reluctant to try anything on, much less to take their time to track down an employee just to look at one on.
This is probably the most common area that retailers are challenged with finding a balance. They need to balance the use of clothing security with the shopping habits and needs of their customers.
When your merchandise is tied up to the point that it is unshoppable to the average customers then your profits on those items are tied up as well. Literally. It has been proven over and over that when you eliminate access to your merchandise, sales go down. When you give customers the ability to touch, feel, and try on clothes at their leisure, sales of those items increase. When the sales increase, so does the profit.

Nice Nails- Alpha Shark Tags

June 10, 2014 by Leave a Comment
At one time, we employed a door guard whose job it was to greet customers, answer alarm activations, and to validate returns coming into the store. One day he told me about a girl that came in to return some nail polish. As she showed my employee the receipt and the bottle she was returning, told her that the color was really pretty and almost like the color she was wearing on her nails. It was a classic case of wardrobing.
Now this girl quickly changed her story and backtracked saying that she wasn’t going to return the nail polish, but she knew she was caught.
Too bad it isn’t always that easy for a retailer to know if their product is used in wardrobing.
Even though it is rare to catch a customer actually wearing the clothes they are attempting to return, Alpha Shark Tags are the next best thing. These plastic red tags help to reinforce your store’s return policy. Because the red tags simply can not be removed or reattached without showing signs of tampering, it is a fool proof way for your employees to determine if the clothing can be returned or not.
Alpha Shark Tags may not be able to tell you what the customer did with the clothes after they left the store, but they can decrease the likelihood that they were worn and then returned.

What A Mess- Retail Security

June 10, 2014 by Leave a Comment
I recently went to a store to buy some new accessories for an upcoming event. Little did I know that this shopping trip would be a lesson in how the lack of anti theft devices makes a huge difference in how clean a store is.
Because this particular store had been completely ransacked in their jewelry department. It was almost impossible to find what I needed. There were earrings missing, or lying on the ground in complete disarray.
Eventually, I just ended up leaving without making a purchase. It was frustrating as a customer to have such rotten luck finding what I needed. It was even more frustrating having worked in retail security because I know that the simple addition of cheap labels and cheap tags could have prevented some of this mess.
This wasn’t so much an issue of employee engagement or merchandise recovery practices. This mess was because shoplifters had complete access to the merchandise. Without the threat of retail security, shoplifters were tearing the jewelry department up. They knew they could get away with whatever they wanted.

Early Warning System- Checkpoint Security System

June 8, 2014 by Leave a Comment
I worked at a major upscale department store. We had several entrance doors in our location, and I had gone to start locking them all up as we closed down for the night. As I was walking to lock up the last door, I heard the security alarms go off. I looked up and saw five guys with their arms loaded with expensive handbags running out the door. 
The security tags on the handbags set the alarm off notifying us of the problem. Unfortunately, these security tags did not deter these professional thieves. They knew they were going to be fast getting in and out, and would set the alarm off as they went.
What they didn’t count on was the camera system we had documenting their every move. Even though they disregarded the tags, the alarm let us know what was happening. 
We were able to use this information to build a case with the police department, which led to their arrest. Had we not had the tags on to set the alarm off, we would not have noticed that night that the handbags had been stolen.
That would have given the criminals ample time to get away. If we had not known what time (or day) the loss took place, we might not have been able to track down the video, which is what the police needed to make their arrest.

The Height of Fashion- Alpha Shark Tags

June 7, 2014 by Leave a Comment
When someone is wardrobing retail pieces of merchandise, they are buying an item to wear one time and then return to get their money back. This is all to frequent with special occasion items (for example) where the wearer can’t justify spending the money on the item, but still wants the latest fashion, or at the very least a better item than what they can afford.
They keep the price tags on, being careful not to spill on or otherwise soil the merchandise, and return the item soon after the event. The justification comes from feeling like they gave back an item that is as good as new, so the retailer could not possibly be out anything.
Since they have taken such good care of the item, they feel like they are free to continue this practice of wardrobing to stay at the height of fashion. Yes, in some circles, it is still taboo to wear the same thing one more than one occasion. There is a social pressure to have the latest looks, or at least a different one than what was worn to the last soiree.
By using the alpha shark tags, you can stop this cycle of wardrobing. It is extremely difficult to stay at the height of fashion when you have a large and unsightly security tag affixed to the center of your blouse or special occasion outfit.

Common Traits For Actual Shoppers- Checkpoint Systems

June 5, 2014 by Leave a Comment
Actual paying shoppers will display the same basic patterns or behaviors when they are out shopping. Even those that are window-shopping will do the same things, even if they do not make an actual purchase. Shoplifters, on the other hand, have the intention of leaving the store with product that has not been paid for. By understanding what a shopper does, compared to what a shoplifter does will give you a better way to identify possible thefts in progress.
Shoppers look for their size of jeans, which is found somewhere, near the waistband, not at the bottom of the leg. Even if a shopper picks out a few jeans with similar sizes to try on, they still are more focused on the sizing found near the waistband.
Instead of looking at the tags or the waistbands, shoplifters follow the leg of each pair of jeans down to the end. They are checking for electronic article surveillance tags (EAS) commonly called security tags.
These shoplifters are trying to find pairs of jeans that did not have EAS tags on them. They want to be able to steal the jeans without being conspicuously identified by an alarm sounding as he exited the store. If they can find a pair of jeans without the tags, they have a better chance of making a clean escape.
