Battling Loss Prevention: 3 Ways Theatro Can Help You Keep Assets Safe

In the highly competitive world of retail, ensuring the safety and security of customers, employees, store merchandise and products is crucial. Not only do customers expect safety when they are shopping, but also retailers simply cannot afford to routinely take financial losses from theft and store damages.

The ramifications of inadequate asset and loss protection can be severe, impacting a retailer’s bottom line, reputation, and overall business operations. Therefore, implementing effective strategies and technologies to address these concerns is essential.

Theatro has built an innovative communication and workforce optimization platform designed specifically for retail environments. It leverages cutting-edge technologies to connect employees, streamline operations, and enhance safety measures. Here’s how Theatro’s Mobile Communication Platform can contribute to a secure retail environment:

1. Real-Time Communication

When it comes to handling a potential loss prevention scenario, store teams need to be prepared to react quickly in the moment. Theatro’s hands-free, voice-controlled devices enable seamless communication among store associates, managers, and security personnel.

This real-time connectivity ensures immediate response to incidents, potential threats, and emergencies. By empowering employees with instant access to information and their security teams, Theatro enhances their ability to address security concerns promptly.

2. Employee Alerts

Employee safety is a top priority in any retail environment. Theatro gives the employees access to several tools specifically built to address LP situations, allowing team members to alert leadership about potential threats or suspicious behavior, and enabling them to take appropriate actions discreetly while the situation can be assessed.

Using Theatro, team members can use a preset Loss Prevention (LP) code word to notify the system to alert defined groups such as the security team or management. And with Theatro’s LP Event Capture workflow, team members can capture LP incident highlights following an occurrence and send them directly to the LP team’s email inbox for review.

By analyzing these reports, retailers can identify patterns, detect vulnerabilities, and implement proactive measures to mitigate risks and enhance overall asset and loss protection strategies.

3. Automated Digital Workflows

Stores also have the opportunity to integrate their existing security camera system with Theatro to enable automatic motion-detected alerts. With integrated motion detection security cameras, an alert is sent to the appropriate group of team members when a customer has entered an unauthorized area of the store.

These same cameras can be further configured to generate a Dwell Time alert if a customer continues to linger around predefined areas of the store—such as the back entrance or an area with high-value items. Leveraging these camera integrations, store teams have an opportunity to prevent potential theft before it even occurs.

In addition to integrated security cameras, stores can also utilize QR codes to help limit potential theft. These codes can be placed around the store to help protect high value products. By placing these products behind locked cases or in restricted areas, customers will need to scan a QR code to alert a team member to unlock that particular item. With these automatic alerts, Theatro can keep their stores safer while also remaining committed to fast and efficient customer service.
