If you are the owner of a retail business, you're probably aware of security alarms, surveillance cameras, and other tried-and-true ways of protecting your investment from theft. However, there are three small investments you should consider to strengthen the security of your business. Did you know that something as small as a pen can have a dramatic affect on your bottom line? Small pen-shaped devices can keep you from taking in fraudulent currency or merchandise returns, as well as protecting your employees from physical threats. These three pen-shaped devices are crucial investments for owners of retail establishments:

Anti-counterfeit pens ensure that you aren't receiving stolen cash. Most useful in businesses that frequently take in large bills, counterfeit detection pens are a wise choice for any business that accepts cash in any amount. This easy-to-use counterfeit detector allows your employees to avoid taking fake funds. Most methods for detecting fakes, such as looking for microscopic writing on the bill or holding it to the light, simply aren't practical for a fast-paced retail situation. This simple pen is swiped across the front of the bill. The chemical ink in a counterfeit detection pen will instantly identify fraudulent bills. Within 48 hours, the mark made by the pen will disappear, leaving the printing on the bill untouched.

Businesses must protect themselves not only from fraudulent purchases, but also from fraudulent returns. Did you know that some unscrupulous shoppers will purchase an item with the intent of returning a different item? For example, they have a broken electronic device at home. They purchase a new one from you, and then return the already-broken device for a full refund. The prevention of property loss is an important topic no matter what type of business you run. While some retail stores are more susceptible to this type of fraud than others, you may be surprised at the wide range of businesses that fall victim to this scheme.

How can you make sure this isn't happening in your store? The answer lies in UV pens. A small mark made in an inconspicuous place on everything you sell will go undetected by the consumer. If there is ever a question about whether the item being returned is the same one that has been sold, a quick check with the proper lightbulb will quickly solve the debate. These UV pens have been used for years by both online and brick-and-mortar sellers who want to be sure that they're not losing money on fraudulent returns. The pens are also useful for home use, where a mark on expensive possessions will aid in their identification and recovery if stolen.

Finally, your business security plan must be concerned not only with property-related crimes, but also with the safety of your employees. Workers in nearly any retail store are at risk when it comes to theft and other crimes. If you want to provide a way for employees to protect themselves from such threats, consider pepper spray pens. These well-disguised self defense products can be kept near the cash register, in plain sight of customers. Their real use is virtually undetectable unless you look closely. If someone should threaten one of your employees, a quick burst from the pepper spray pen will neutralize the situation quickly.
