Loss Prevention Calculator -3
The Loss Prevention Calculator Shows How To Make Smart Investments
     The Loss Prevention Calculator from Loss Prevention Systems, Inc. (LPSI) is a winning way to find out what the return on investment (ROI) would be for a Sensormatic security system. While the ROI for one thing may be great that doesn’t mean all investments will turn out the same. Here are a few examples where the ROI of investments were not only less than desirable, they were failures of epic proportion. From thinkadvisor.com – “8 Really Bad Investments That Lost a Bundle” by Dan Berman, May 07, 2013:
Boo.com was an online apparel company that lost $188 million in a year and a half. “Almost one sixth of that money belonged to the wealthy Harari family…”
Venture capitalists invested 35 million in Flooz.com an attempt at creating an online currency.  “…despite retailers like Barnes and Noble and Starbucks agreeing to accept the currency, the idea flopped miserably.”
In 1993 The New York Times spent 1.1 BILLION dollars to purchase the Boston Globe. The internet changed the news reporting industry and newspapers. “An attempt to sell the Globe in 2009 reportedly netted an offer of $59 million plus the assumption of pension obligations. Other newspapers that were part of the Globe chain were sold for $143 million in late 2011.”
Ouch, these investment choices certainly seem to have had a nasty sting to them. A Return On Investment should not be costly as these were. If you own a retail business you want to be careful on how you spend YOUR money. You have to have the assurance that there will be a positive return for your expenditures. One sure fire way to do this is to spend money on something that will pay back dividends. No, I’m not talking about buying stocks. Purchase a Loss Prevention system to prevent theft and reduce stock shortage. The Loss Prevention ROI Calculator is your safe way to see just how an investment will not only pay dividends but pay for itself as well.
     Just how does the Loss Prevention Calculator work? You go to the LPSI website and find the link to their ROI Calculator. Once on the screen the user simply enters their estimated annual sales for their store and the amount they are considering spending on a Sensormatic security system. The Loss Prevention ROI Calculator tallies the figures and shows how much you would spend monthly to pay for a system. It also allows the user to see how long it would take for the investment to pay for itself through reduced shrink losses. THAT is an investment that makes sense!
      There may be someone who is reading this and ready to reject it because they don’t want a sales person calling them or emailing to push a sale. I totally understand. That is why there is no registration, signing in, request for email or any other tracking used. When LPSI calls it a Free Loss Prevention Calculator they mean it. They are so sure of the effectiveness of electronic article surveillance systems they are confident you will make the right investment for your business. That is what LPSI is all about, helping retailers become more profitable through theft and shrinkage reduction.
     Just to let you see that there have been other really bad investment choices that turned out poorly, here are a couple of more from franchisehelp.com, “20 Famous Athletes and Their Investment Blunders”:
Rhagib Ismail a Notre Dame Football player and graduate, invested $300,000 in a “Hard Rock Café franchise/Planet Hollywood knockoff called Rock N’ Roll Café.” The venue was a failure.
“(John) Elway and a co-investor committed $15 million to what turned out to be a ponzi scheme run by hedge fund manager Sean Mueller says the Denver Post”
Scottie Pippin “(invested) in a private jet that took him under.” He is “…seeking restitution from a firm that he claims owes him at least $8 million after misguiding him on investments.”
There are so many more stories of investments that turned out badly for the investors. Some of the sports figures made considerable sums of money over the course of their careers and have gone bankrupt. You don’t have to make similar mistakes with your business.
