With the holidays fast approaching, many businesses are gearing up for the increase of sales that comes with the busiest time of the year. The increased customer base can translate to more money for your business, but it can also mean more people trying to get your merchandise for free. The last thing you want to be worried about is theft. One of the best ways to utilize anti shoplifting tools is through retail theft prevention devices such as Checkpoint security tags by Checkpoint Systems.

With a Checkpoint security system, you can be more worried about ghosts and ghouls than shoplifters. At the stores I cover as a loss prevention agent, the managers and associates want to place their full focus on ensuring the customer has an excellent experience in finding the right clothes for their loved ones. Not all stores have the resources for a full loss prevention team so utilizing Checkpoint security tags can make a huge difference in putting a scare on the wannabe holiday shoplifters that can plague your store.

Checkpoint security tags are easy and quick to install. They work with the entire Checkpoint security system to sound an alarm when someone attempts to take your merchandise outside of the store. Shoplifters are familiar with these anti shoplifting devices and they would rather go somewhere else than risk getting caught removing the security tags. The devices keep the merchandise on the shelves so your customers can find the perfect presents.

Instead of letting the shoplifters put the “boo” in your night, install a Checkpoint security system and scare those thieves away!

Retail theft prevention is on the forefront of most business owners’ minds lately.  The struggling economy, high unemployment and the ever decreasing value of the dollar can motivate some people to take up shoplifting just to make ends meet or to obtain those items that they otherwise cannot afford.  If a person has the mindset to be able to shoplift, a suffering economy will not stop them and may motivate them.  Anti shoplifting techniques will, however, slow down their efforts.

I work for a large retailer that is also seeing the effects of the economy on profitability.  Anti shoplifting measures are taken seriously by those of us in the loss prevention field in order to maximize our business’s profits while reducing the losses experienced.  We do our best to not stand idly by while our merchandise walks out the doors.

Businesses are seeing more organized retail crime among shoplifters as well, where items are stolen for resale.  These types of shoplifters can greatly impact a business by creating a significant loss in a short amount of time.  Retail theft prevention ideas can help slow down these shoplifters too.

When you would like your dollar to go a long way in retail theft prevention, Checkpoint systems are available.  Checkpoint security tags attach to your high theft and high end merchandise and sound an alarm should the item leave your business without being purchased.  A Checkpoint security system also provides a visual deterrent to the would-be shoplifter, announcing it, and your business, as one invested in anti shoplifting.

Many retailers are taking an aggressive stance in their security programs. Many retailers are putting together anti shoplifting programs that will protect their assets. Retail theft prevention involves more than just hiring loss prevention officers. There are many other things needed to make a program work. Checkpoint security system can provide the proper equipment such as checkpoint security tags. This is a step in a right direction; checkpoint systems are geared toward protecting a stores asset.

In any retail business retail theft prevention must be address and taken seriously for them to work. This was an issue I had to address at one of my assignments I arrived at this one establishment. The location did not have a proper retail theft prevention program in place. Their anti shoplifting program consisted of a few fake cameras and signs stating the store was being watched. I explained that even though an anti shoplifting program is not going to prevent all of the theft, but Checkpoint security system will definitely help address the theft issue. Checkpoint security tags on merchandise will become a deterrent automatically, but when working together with the checkpoint systems will become a more effective system.

After the checkpoint security system was put into operation working together with a checkpoint security tags and a security staff. When they checked their shrink numbers six months later after inventory saw an improvement in all areas. This proved that checkpoint system does work proving that a good security system is a very good investment for any business.

All retailers experience shoplifting at some point or other.  I have found that the smaller volume and specialty stores are often less likely to have anti shoplifting efforts in place as opposed to the larger chain counterparts.  One specialty retail setting that has a large variety of chain stores and independently owned stores are drug stores.  Now we all know that the chain stores use anti shoplifting devices such as EAS tags, CCTV and RX caps.  But I often find that independently owned drug stores don’t have many retail theft prevention efforts in place.

A word of advice is that all stores need anti shoplifting tools in order to remain profitable.  Shoplifters target stores that don’t use tools such as Checkpoint security tags and Checkpoint security systems.  Shoplifters are smart.  They quickly learn who is protecting themselves and who is not.  Then they take the smaller risk and steal from the stores without retail theft prevention devices.  There are many great tools that are available to small drug stores.  You don’t have to be a chain store to qualify for protection.  Checkpoint systems is very cost effective and is well known by shoplifters.  When a would-be shoplifter enters the store and sees the Checkpoint systems pedestals they know immediately that their job just got more risky.

And to be honest, that is the point.  Store employees can’t spend all day dealing with shoplifters and still give the customers the service they need.  Instead of sacrificing time doing business you can use Checkpoint security tags and Alpha RX Caps to deter your theft and keep your profits safe.  This will allow you to control losses and focus more on growing sales and customer satisfaction.

There are many different ways for shoplifters to steal from a store.  The obvious way is for a shoplifter to conceal product and walk out without paying for it.  Another very common method, but one not often talked about, is ticket switching.  This method of theft involves taking the price label off of a low priced item and placing it on a high priced item.  The shoplifter will then go to the register and if the cashier does not catch the price change then the customer will pay pennies on the dollar for the product.

So how can you prevent this?  One answer is to make sure your cashiers are trained on your products so they have a basic knowledge of the merchandise price points.  They then have to pay attention to what they are ringing and question when an items seems to be priced unusually low.  To help I also suggest using Checkpoint security tags from Checkpoint Systems.  When you use Checkpoint Systems it is not necessary to put the Checkpoint security tags on all merchandise.  I suggest only putting them on high dollar and high theft items.  The immediate benefit is that shoplifters are wary of stealing products when they see you have a Checkpoint security system in place.  Remember, retail theft prevention is really the goal.

The second benefit is that if a customer comes to the register with an item that is low priced AND has an anti shoplifting device a red flag should go off to the cashier.  Since you generally put Checkpoint security tags on high dollar merchandise there would be no reason for an anti shoplifting device on the low priced item, thus the ticket could have been switched.  One quick price check from the department and you may have just stopped yourself from a loss.

All major retailers use a checkpoint security system.  The reason for this is simple.  Retail theft prevention is a priority!  Big retail has learned over the years that anti shoplifting devices are cost effective and get results.

With the benefit of learning from this experience specialty retailers and small business owners can develop long term loss prevention programs that will meet budget requirements.

Hiring a full time in-store loss prevention team to apprehend shoplifters is expensive and opens the business up to additional liability concerns.  Checkpoint security tags are a discreet and cost effective deterrent because most shoplifters look for exposed merchandise.

Checkpoint systems are the first thing a shoplifter looks for when considering which businesses to attack.  Having a checkpoint system in place indicates to a shoplifter that you are proactively engaging in retail theft prevention and may have trained loss prevention personnel on staff.

A company I recently consulted used checkpoint security tags by checkpoint systems to secure all sales floor and display merchandise.  The business couldn’t justify the cost of a full time loss prevention team and the owner realized early that retail theft prevention needed to be a priority because an entire display table of name brand athletic shirts disappeared a week after the store opened.

We installed a checkpoint security system at each entrance and comprehensive training was provided to all staff members.  Checkpoint security tags were placed on all display and sellable merchandise.  According to the client, when the suspected shoplifters returned to find the business secured with anti shoplifting devices they didn’t bother even coming into the store.

Any business that invests in the purchase of a checkpoint security system from checkpoint systems will see a return on their investment (ROI).
