Benefits of Security Cameras
Security cameras provide safety from theft; however, they offer more than just that.
A big feature overlooked is the ability to use cameras just to observe patterns and human behavior. What are they being drawn to? How is traffic flow through certain areas?
This can go a bit further too. When trying out new layouts you can compare previous layout footage to the newer layout. You can see if something is being overlooked more or if something is being lingered around. Store music has this effect as well.
With cameras you can also see the effects the music is having on your customers. Fast tempo music will lead to customers moving through the store faster while slower tempo music will lead them to linger more. Finding a balance between the songs played will allow for a proper ebb and flow, where customers aren’t leaving too early nor spending too much time within the store.
This observing factor isn’t just useful for customers. It’s also useful for employees.
When implementing new rules it’s important to make sure they’re being enforced. Security cameras allow you to record what’s being viewed. If you miss something while on the floor it’ll pick it up, and anyone not following store policy will be caught.
They won’t just catch rule breaking. The security cameras can also catch when the situation in which a dispute has occurred. For example, if Heather is accused of stealing Greg’s yogurt you can check the 16 channel DVR to see that it was actually Brian, who also stole Natalie’s sandwich.
Catching events also gives you evidence against false claims against your store.
This catching of events doesn’t just help settle disputes and catch false claims. It also leads to the company being more trusted. You’re more secure and it reflects in a safer feeling for the customers. This isn’t the only award you’ll get either.
It’s common for insurance companies to give discounts for having security cameras installed. On top of that, you can have less security monitoring the store. Leaving you with fewer paychecks to pay, and more money to distribute around.
