Stop Shoplifting In A Gift Shop, Is A Sensormatic System Necessary?
Why should you spend money on a Sensormatic system if you “only” have a gift shop? Because shoplifters steal, and they steal from anyone. They do not care what kind of retailer you are. The same loss ratio applies to gift stores as it does to, well, any retailer. The formula is simple. Let’s say you lose a $20 item at retail. And let’s suppose that your margin is 2%. You divide $20 by 2 percent and you have the real cost of that loss of $20 (20/.02 = $1000). Yes, to make up and breakeven, not make any profit, you have to sell an additional $1000 in merchandise. That is on top of your normal sales. No one can do that for very long and stay in business.
Typical Sensormatic systems have a Return On Investment (ROI) of about 5.5 months depending how well you follow the Loss Prevention Systems, Inc. program. You can never stop shoplifting altogether however, our program is more than just installing a Sensormatic system. We train you on how to stop shoplifting before they steal and we will do this on a regular basis for you as often as you and your staff reasonably need it.
So if we can train you to deter a significant amount of shoplifting why do you need the Sensormatic system? You and your staff cannot be everywhere all the time. Shoplifters look for opportunities or they will create them where you and your folks are distracted. Busy days with lots of customers on the sales floor at the same time does not leave a lot of time for the identification of a shoplifter or the type of customer service that is required to send them off to someone else.
That is where Sensormatic systems comes into play. In many cases shoplifters will see the active Sensormatic system and they will be deterred. But many are not. Properly secured merchandise will stop the shoplifter in their tracks. Your gift shop will benefit from the same commercial grade systems that the major retailers use. 
“But, Sensormatic systems are expensive?” NO, they are not, in fact they are very affordable.
