Alpha Spider Wrap: 5

When It Comes To Protecting Your Large Bulky Items, The Alpha Spider Wrap Is The Best On The Market
Working in retail is not always fun, customer service and dealing with issues, are often very frustrating. I am sure everyone who has ever worked in retail has their fair share of stories, me included. I have found it very interesting to see how blatant people have become when it comes to shoplifting. It seems as though people who are caught shoplifting respond differently than they did when I was younger, or least that is my perception. When I was younger it seemed as though shoplifting was such a negative thing, and people were ashamed and embarrassed when they would get caught stealing. Today, rather than feeling remorseful, shoplifters are brasher about it, and tend to get angry at store employees when they are caught. I have had shoplifters throw stolen items at me, fight me, and even admonish me for catching them. They tend to be less inconspicuous about their thievery as well, which is sometimes good for us, but also poses problems when it comes to properly securing merchandise. It seems it is easier for people to steal from us when they act impulsively, because we are not expecting the behavior, which makes it hard to mitigate our risk. For example, we had some televisions on display in our store, which were rather large and difficult to manage without assistance. Because of this we decided not to place any additional security on these items, as we felt taking them would be rather obvious. That was until we had two guys come in the store and steal two of them in a matter of minutes. These guys simply grabbed one TV each, and walked right out the door. They simply placed the items into a waiting car out front and were in and out in about 2 minutes. By the time anyone knew what was happening they were already gone. We learned our lesson the hard way that day, now we prevent shoplifting by securing all of our items, even the large bulky items, with Alpha Spider Wraps.
Alpha Spider Wraps provide a means to protect those large or oddly shaped items that may be of higher value like televisions, tools, shoes, video consoles, computer equipment and various other items. These can be applied in store and provide a snug fit to prevent tampering. The Alpha Spider Wraps are equipped with an audible EAS alarm and an LED visual deterrent in the event someone tries to remove the item from the store. An alarm will sound in the event that someone tampers or removes the device in store as well. This can help alert store personnel to these types of brazen attempts to take your merchandise and prevent shoplifting. Even if you can’t stop them at least you are alerted to the theft so you can attempt to get some description of the suspects or the vehicle before they leave the property. This can help law enforcement in their subsequent investigation and ultimately lead to a recovery. Following the incident at my store, we started securing the majority of our high priced items, even if they are bulky, so we don’t have a similar situation occur. We lost $2400 in merchandise that day and had no leads to help investigate the theft.
Many stores become complacent because they think that store associates are the first line of defense to prevent shoplifting, but in reality that is not the case. Store associates are a valuable part of any loss prevention program, but they are not always available to detect criminal activity. That is why it is imperative that you protect your property with the Alpha Spider Wrap. It provides a method to alert store personnel in the event of a theft and provides a visual deterrent at a reasonable price.

Employee Theft Of Clothes Can Be Curtailed With Checkpoint Tags
Apparel store owners and managers, where do you think the majority of your store shrinkage is occurring? Your first reaction may be shoplifters and that would be a good guess. It would also be the wrong guess. According to the 2014-2015 Global Retail Theft Barometer, North American Apparel Specialist Retailers experienced 44% of their losses from dishonest employees (pg. 54). Shoplifting did follow at a close 41% as a cause of shrinkage with vendor/supplier fraud and administrative and non-crime losses accounting for the remaining 16% of losses. Total shortage for Apparel Retailers during this time frame equaled 1.98% so if your store is trending with the national average, how are you addressing the almost 45% of losses in your store taking place due to employee theft? What steps are you taking to address clothing security and protect your bottom line? If you aren’t using Checkpoint tags on apparel you are doing a disservice to your business.
What are Checkpoint tags for clothing? Clothing security tags by Checkpoint are radio frequency sensitive devices that are clipped to garments. When a protected item is carried near a door with a Checkpoint antenna the tag causes the antenna alarm to activate. Lights flash and a loud noise will draw the attention of employees. An employee who responds to an alarm determines the cause of the alarm and can recover merchandise that has not been paid for by the customer/thief. Clothing security tags are a visible deterrent to anyone who may consider trying to steal an item. Most people are familiar with security tags on clothes and will try to find an unprotected item rather than take a chance with setting off the antenna when they are ready to leave. One other advantage of clothing security devices is that they require a special detachment tool to remove them. If someone forcibly removes a tag it damages the garment. If damaged, the merchandise loses its appeal to the thief.
Returning to the point I made at the beginning of the article, can Checkpoint tags prevent that 45% of the losses employee theft may be costing your business? The answer is yes, they can. There are several things to keep in mind to ensure that clothing security is not compromised when it comes to preventing employee theft. One thing I saw during a few of my internal employee investigation cases was that electronic article surveillance antenna alarm activations by an employee were often shrugged off. All alarm activations should be treated with the same response. There is a tendency for co-workers to bond and in doing so there is an inherent trust that forms. Dishonest employees will use this trust to engage in dishonest activity. All employees should understand how to respond to respond to an alarm and how to look for security tags on clothes that may set off that alarm. The same level of response applies to customers and employees with thorough bag checks and receipt inspections.
Clothing security detachment tools must also be properly controlled and accounted for daily. The easiest method is to use the detachment tool that can be secured to the counter and make a check of it part of the daily opening tasks. If you have portable detachers for your employees who stock freight and attach tags to new merchandise, require them to sign their device in and out and a supervisor or manager locks them away. Dishonest employees may try to steal a detachment tool and use it to remove Checkpoint tags and then the clothes they were protecting.
Finally, a daily check of the Checkpoint system should be documented. This inspection does not take long, but it verifies that deactivation units are working, as are the antennas. If an employee knows the antennas are not working the dishonest one will use this knowledge as an opportunity to get merchandise with clothing security tags on them out of the store without creating an alarm.
Security tags on clothes are an effective method of significantly reducing shortage due to employee theft. If you haven’t invested in Checkpoint tags yet, check out what you may be costing yourself.

Alpha Thunder tag: 5
Tablet theft: 3
Our Reliance On Technology Has Created A Vulnerability We Cannot Ignore. Let The Alpha Thunder Tag Protect You From An Unauthorized Data Breach
My husband and I are pretty active and in the summer we love to play softball, although we both tend to be very accident prone. This year was no exception, with both of us ending up in the emergency room. I had the misfortune of tripping as I was running to third base, I know graceful right? Unfortunately for me I just happened to fall directly on a rock, which resulted in a quarter-sized hole in my knee cap, which went down to the bone. I did however finish the game before I took myself to the emergency room. I know sounds crazy, but you can’t sew up a hole, which was confirmed by the doctors. Needless to say I still spent some time in the hospital getting the wound cleaned and wrapped. It wasn’t a pleasant experience, but the hospital staff was very kind and friendly during my brief visit. During my appointment I did notice that the nurses and doctors had significantly improved their efficiency, which got me in and out much quicker than I anticipated. It seems like technology has continued to improve efficiency in many areas of our lives. The medical field appears to be no exception to this, as I watched everyone documenting and retrieving medical information from readily accessible tablets and other handheld devices. As they documented my personal information and health history in front of me, I was intrigued by this paperless methodology. I couldn’t help but think about how convenient it must be to be able to alleviate the need for paper documents, and the time it must save maintaining those records electronically. Although convenient, it did make me think about the physical security of the device, and more importantly the information contained on it. The hospital must take some precautions to prevent the theft of these devices to avoid liability and unauthorized access to personal health information. From a loss prevention standpoint my thoughts immediately went to the Alpha Thunder tag, as a possible solution to prevent tablet theft in the medical field.
Unfortunately in this day and age, data breaches are very common, and criminals tend to capitalize on these types of weaknesses and exposures. The Alpha Thunder tag can prevent tablet theft or theft of other electronic devices such as iPads, laptops or other equipment that are designed to store sensitive information. I have used the Alpha Thunder tag in my stores to help protect some of my merchandise, which has been very successful. I think this application could be very effective in protecting electronic devices used in the medical field as well. These devices are simply placed onto the tablet or device with an adhesive, which allows for convenient placement. They are equipped with electronic article surveillance, which alerts staff when a theft or breach has occurred. Hospitals and clinics would simply install antennas at the entry/exit points and equip their devices with the tag. If someone attempts to remove the device or leave with the tablet, it sounds an audible alarm. This would help protect the medical entity from exposing sensitive patient information, which can lead to lawsuits and monetary settlements. The tag is equipped with a switch that activates and deactivates the alarm, so the device could be moved between clinics, divisions or deactivated when needed. These tags are re-useable and provide a cost-efficient means to protect your property from theft.
I would venture to say that there are plenty of businesses, retailers and manufacturers out there that could also benefit from the Alpha Thunder tag. Whether they are trying to protect employee information or simply protecting trade secrets, technology has created a need to protect against tablet theft. The medical field is a great example of this, but I could think of a dozen or more situations in which these tags would be effective. Don’t be vulnerable to data breaches and theft of your electronic devices, protect yourself and reduce your liability.

I know how frustrating it is watching your inventory disappear and not knowing what to do about it. The retail industry is a booming industry, but doesn’t come without risk. When your loss begins to outweigh your gain, the struggle becomes real, and you begin to wonder what options are available to mitigate your risk and increase profit. I know because I have been there. As a small business owner, I have dealt with loss and continue to try and improve my loss prevention program and increase my security. My initial goal was to complete a full review of my inventory loss to identify any trends that could be mitigated. I wanted to focus my attention and money on the appropriate resources, so that I could make improvements, without breaking the bank. My analysis revealed that some of my high loss items included small concealable high priced merchandise such as: batteries, razors, makeup, small electronics and accessories, and other peg hook items that were typically found on hanging displays. As a small business owner my cost margin is quite a bit smaller than the major retailers out there. I don’t make the type of profit needed to justify hiring a full time loss prevention employee to help manage this problem, so I had to rely on other resources to resolve my retail theft problems. I did plenty of research on electronic article surveillance options to try and identify which cost efficient method would best suit my needs, and was fortunate to find the Auto Peg Tag.
The Auto Peg Tag is a Checkpoint tag that can be placed on any item that is meant to hang on peg hooks. They are made of a strong lightweight plastic that can be affixed to any single or double hole package. They are small tags that are easily added to the product, without affecting the product display. I like this Checkpoint tag because it is reusable and allows for easy install, display, and security all in one device. I really like that the Checkpoint tag can be simply removed by any detacher and is compatible with all Checkpoint electronic article surveillance security systems. This allowed me to add the tag to my current security without any undo expense. The Auto Peg tag also provides for a visual deterrent by identifying that the item is security protected. It is a low cost deterrent that can really benefit any retailer; large or small. This tag allows me to furnish the majority of my high priced display products with the added security I need, while providing me with the added peace of mind I was looking for.
Since I started using this Checkpoint tag I have reduced my loss by 18% on display items, which have more than covered the cost of the added protection, and increased profits. I also believe that the added deterrence reduces theft of additional merchandise, by pushing offenders to other competitors. Although there are many choices when it comes to electronic article surveillance, the Auto Peg tag is the most cost efficient and dependable option I have found, in protecting my hanging products. Its compatibility with my current security system and other EAS devices makes it a perfect product for my business and loss prevention needs.

Prevent Shoplifting: 4
Alpha Keepers Protect Some Of Our Consumer’s Favorite Products
When did everything become so expensive? I don’t get out much or shop for things that are a luxury, so to speak, as I am a pretty simple girl. I don’t typically buy high priced cosmetics, or perfume and my family isn’t much into video games or other expensive toys, so I am a little out of the loop when it comes to pricing. Seriously though, I was out shopping and couldn’t help but be set aback by some of the prices for these types of items. When I was a kid everything was so much simpler and much cheaper. I can remember going to the corner store with three quarters, I found in the couch, to buy some penny candy. Seventy-five pieces of candy later I was in sugar heaven. Everything back then was cheaper, but as time continues to age us, it also continues to weaken the good old American dollar. While shopping I began to realize how inflation has dramatically affected the way retailers do business. High priced items are now a high liability for store owners, because loss creates such a substantial impact on their profit margin. Because of my loss prevention background, and my ability to understand the impact shoplifting has on the economy as a whole, I am a strong proponent of utilizing Alpha Keepers to protect your high valued items from theft.
Alpha Keepers are used by businesses to protect cosmetics, electronics, videogames and other high priced items. Perfume for example, can run anywhere, between $60.00-$100.00, depending on the brand. Gaming Keepers secure video games, which on average are at least $60.00 or more, and the game stations run about $300.00. Heck, even razors these days are $30.00. If you figure a store owner makes on average 10% profit on sales, then losing a $300 Xbox, is a significant loss that will take $3000 in sales to make up for. Keepers are typically made of a clear hard plastic that is used to encase the item to prevent shoplifting. They are difficult to remove and will sound an alarm if someone tries to remove the merchandise from the store. They are designed so the product can be displayed while providing a visual deterrent. I am sure you have seen these at some point during your shopping experience. They can also be used to protect beauty products, such as anti-aging face creams and serums, cosmetics, and other beauty items. These types of products are so popular that they independently make up an entire market, in which a single lip stain can cost upwards of $28.00. Alpha Keepers are the best way to prevent shoplifting of these and other high priced items. The impact of shoplifting, not only hurts the business owner, but it also hurts the consumer when prices are increased to cover the cost of a loss prevention program and loss of inventory.
For me, raising prices is really not ideal, since costs are already high for some of my favorite items. As a consumer I actually appreciate the business owner’s desire to mitigate their risk and prevent shoplifting. Alpha Keepers are a great means to secure your property and do not create an inconvenience to the customer. They are user friendly and are easily removed at the time of purchase. They are cost efficient retail security devices that can serve multiple purposes when it comes to securing high valued items. They help to protect high valued items such as video games, DVDs, CDs, and beauty products. The multi-use keepers come in various shapes and sizes to prevent shoplifting in your business.
