Let the Games Begin!
August 30, 2011 | 
Author This weekend, the college football season begins! Tailgating, fans, and of course buying those new college jerseys and caps. I just bought my new Navy cap to wear to Saturday’s opener against the Blue Hens of Delaware.
In another week, the Pro’s begin – all on 9/11, and our 10th anniversary of this heinous event. It marks in earnest the use of our SmartShield EAS retail security system to protect The Flagship Store from shoplifting theft. The Flagship store is THE award winning retail store for fans at the MetLife Stadium (formerly known as The New Meadowlands) where the NY Giants and NY Jets play. Our RFID based solution features no visible pedestals, and some extremely detailed metrics involving alarms and events at the store. Watch out for more on this in future blogs!
Let the games begin!
Hurricane Ready!
Keeping our customers supplied with EAS Retail Security Tags is our top priority. Despite the threat of hurricanes in Florida, we are capable of sustaining a fierce storm here in Delray Beach. Our warehouse and offices are built to the newest building codes for hurricanes, plus our communication system and power will be operable even if power to the area is out. The end result is that we will be here for you. In addition, our Long Island warehouse is capable of standing in for us at any time and vice versa! We’re ready!!

Checkpoint in Trouble?
A colleague of mine sent me a Press Release (see the enclosed link) from one of its largest investors. As an industry player, it’s difficult to read the concern and the results stated in this open letter to the market. All I can say is that we are fortunate at BSI to have a positive Board of Directors – great investors and management, and are producing growth and positive results. For those of you following this blog – we are doing well and recommend that you look us over for your RF and AM EAS Business opportunities.

I hope (and assume) that CKPT will be OK. It’s good for the industry!

Good…Better…BEST!
BSI's World Headquarters in Delray Beach, FL
You have to be GOOD in order to gain trust from your customers…to have them continue to buy from you month-in and month-out and consider you their “trusted advisor”. You have to be BETTER these days, because there are lots of choices out there, but to be on top, you need to have inventory that can ship immediately, coupled with BETTER pricing to allow our Loss Prevention colleagues to get “more for less” and to provide unequaled quality with a money back guarantee on everything we sell.
But being BEST (a la Best Security Industries) comes from listening to our customers – responding immediately to their needs – and solving their problems each and every day. But we couldn’t do that unless we had the BEST employees on the planet…and we do! Just ask any one of our over 5,000 retail customers!

Retail Theft Statistics
According to a recently distributed report from Jack L. Hayes International – a leading inventory shrinkage consulting firm, shoplifters and dishonest employees accounted for over $7 Billion in 23 top retailers surveyed for the year 2010. And, there were over 1 million apprehensions made by those same 23 top retailers.
Yes, both shoplifters and dishonest employees cost us ALL in the end, which is why Retail Loss Prevention is such a necessary thing for us all to continue to reduce.
