I am seeing more and more cases where my internal (employee) theft cases revolve around an employee and someone from the outside. That is just fine by me. When you have a single associate stealing, it can be problematic trying to find out how and where they are stealing.

 When an employee is working with someone, I see more activity around the registers. It may sound strange, but it works out better for me in the long run.

 Most of the time when an employee passes merchandise off to a buddy or relative, they move the product past the checkouts. It is to give the appearance that the items are being paid for. The other reason is that is where the detachers are to get rid of any checkpoint labels or checkpoint security tags that are present.

 For a lot of retailers, the cash wraps are where the bulk of cameras are. So when an employee is at the register deactivating RF labels, we can see what is going on, as well as recording it for further evidence.

 By having Checkpoint labels and Checkpoint security tags on our product, it slows down the theft giving us a better chance at detecting the pass off, and accurately case building. We can recover more merchandise and restitution in the end, all thanks to the RF labels.

If you have ever tried or switched from a name brand item to a generic or store brand item, you know that not all products are equivalent to each other. Some things turn out ok. There is not a glaring difference between the two. Sometimes, though, the difference between a name brand and a cheap knock off is alarming.

 When you are trying to stop shoplifting from occurring in your stores, you need to be wary of what off brands you use. You are libel to end up with an inferior foreign made item that does not stand up to the extreme quality controls of a Checkpoint label or a Checkpoint security tag.

 Not all RF labels and RF security tags are equal. Checkpoint has developed and adheres to strict quality controls; testing each and every RF security tag and RF label they make.

 Checkpoint believes in their quality and stands behind their name. They want you to believe in them too. This is one time where it is worth it to go with a trusted name brand. Your merchandise and your inventories are depending on it. Don’t be fooled by a knock off. Go with Checkpoint.

A rather young, new employee asked me the other day how Checkpoint labels and Checkpoint security tags stop shoplifting. They didn’t really believe that a plastic tag or a little sticky label could really be an effective method to stop shoplifting. You could see the doubt brimming in their eyes.

 I told them it was a combination of several different facets all working together that created an efficient shortage reduction program. The first step was utilizing the RF labels and RF security tags.

 You see, the RF security tags and labels are a visual cue for potential thieves. They say that stealing any of the tagged items are going to be more difficult to get out the door without raising suspicion or notice.

 For those shoplifters that do try to beat the system, it will take them longer to either try (usually unsuccessfully) to defeat the tags, or they will set the alarm off as they go out the door.

 If they are noticed inside the store, they will generally be apprehended. Those that set the alarm off run the risk of having a license plate on their get away vehicle documented. Many a shoplifter has been apprehended after the fact by having a lead on the car’s make, color and plates.

 All in all, the word spreads quickly that this store takes shortages and theft seriously; best to move on to the next store and leave this one alone.

Sometimes we just take things for granted. We know that certain things work and certain things don’t. How often do we ever stop and think about why something works better than something else. Take EAS systems like Checkpoint security tags and Checkpoint labels as an effective means to stop shoplifting.

 Shoplifters ultimately rely on the need to remain inconspicuous and anonymous. A shoplifter’s greatest trait is to be able to dash into a store, under the radar, and get out before anyone notices they are there. When you say time is of the essence, no one can relate more than a shoplifter.

 When you add another variable into the equation, such as Checkpoint security tags and Checkpoint labels, that precious time needed to make a successful theft starts to dwindle. If a shoplifter is now faced with the task of unauthorized removal of the tags and labels, they run the risk of being detected.

 Since there is no easy, quick way to remove the tags without the proper deactivators or detachers, the addition of tags and labels are essential to being able to stop shoplifting. It is far better to rob a thief of time, than for a thief to rob you of your inventory.

Checkpoint labels and Checkpoint security tags are amongst the best in the business. Sure, you can go out just about anywhere and get some inexpensive knock offs, but why would you?

 When you are making an investment to stop shoplifting losses in your store, trust only the best name in the business.  Checkpoint labels and Checkpoint security tags are reliable. They are individually tested to ensure consistent results. They make a point to not having any duds sent out with their name on it.

 Often other RF labels and RF security tags are foreign imports that are quickly and cheaply made. There generally aren’t the same quality control standards. You can have multiple RF labels on a roll that do not work. Why pay for a product that is only marginally good? Expect the best for your merchandise.

 If you are taking the time and effort to truly invest in a shrink reduction plan, do it right the first time. Make no mistakes in which you will trust with your most precious assets: your merchandise, your customers, and your store. You will be happier from the start. Quality products that are done right each and every time absolutely guaranteed.

After spending years in Loss Prevention, I understand the need for discretion and stealth very well. With out either of these traits, I would not have gotten very far in my career. It is rather hard to stop shoplifting from occurring in your stores if you are loud and boisterous.

 I remember a story my old mentor told me. He had been standing in a checkout line behind one of his shoplifters. This wasn’t just any old shoplifter either. He had been hitting the stores for months and my mentor finally had enough to make an apprehension.

 They had stuffed a box with merchandise and were paying for only the box, not the contents. After the transaction finished, my mentor could make the apprehension as they left the store.

 Well, sure enough, another associate was walking by and shouted “Hey! Have you caught any shoplifters today?” My mentor’s cover was gone and the shoplifter left without any product. The case had been blown. While the shoplifter never came back to the store, any chance of recovering the previously stolen product, or securing restitution was completely destroyed.

 Checkpoint security tags and Checkpoint labels are designed with the same thought in mind. They should be effective above all else, but also sleek, discreet and stealth whenever they are needed to stop shoplifting. It is much more wise to put your trust in Checkpoint security tags and Checkpoint labels to get the job done.

When I was in my teenage years, it seems like I had plenty of disposable income. It was never a stretch to go out and buy some new little trinket, or a new CD. As the years went by, my discretionary funds if you will, seemed to give way to new expenses like a car payment, mortgage, etc. My new CD purchases have been few and far between.

 The other day, I did go out and buy a new CD. It had been a while, and quite frankly I was shocked to see that stores still carried CDs. After I got home with my new purchase, I eagerly ripped into the packaging. Ten minutes later I finally got the plastic wrap off. Inside the cover, on the insert, was a little RF security label.

 It seemed like a rather unfortunate place to put an RF label since the insert can easily be removed. To stop shoplifting, using an RF security label is an important step. When I think of how long it took me to actually get into my CD, I think it is a very good hiding spot for the RF label. I just really wish they had put it on the inside of the case, instead of ruining my insert.
