As theft prevention measures become more common, many retailers are locking everyday items behind cabinets. While this can deter thieves, it can also frustrate honest customers who then turn to online shopping. The key to balancing security and customer satisfaction lies in having more attentive associates on the floor, which can both deter theft and enhance customer experience. Additionally, leveraging smart technology, such as AI-powered cameras and computer vision, can detect suspicious activity without impacting genuine customers. Retailers need these tailored strategies that combine the human touch with tech solutions for optimal results: https://bit.ly/4cfnOss #RetailStrategy #CustomerExperience #TheftPrevention #RetailTechnology #SmartRetail
