Black Friday Store Security in Florida

Posted on

Black Friday is the far and away the biggest (and baddest) shopping event of the year, with total sales from brick and mortar establishments totaling over $13 billion on Black Friday alone in 2015. For retailers, you have the extra challenge of early opening times, crowd control, shoppers sleeping in tents outside, and long list of potential problems; shoplifting, shrinkage, trampling, brawls, customer confrontations and more. These issues are a headache that eat away at your profit margins. Worse, a major incident on your premises can lead to a lengthy legal battle and financial trouble long after the holidays are but a bad memory.

Black Friday Store Security in Florida

The Holiday Season is when your store is the busiest, the your associates are the most distracted, your fitting rooms and store shelves are the most disorganized, the crowd is more agitated and it’s the time of year the police are the busiest. All of this amounts to one of the most hectic and dangerous environments a store owner will ever see.
ESS Global Corp has been providing black Friday store security in Florida for merchants of all types. Here are some of the major challenges we help you overcome.

Crowd Control and Customer Safety – Simply dealing with the crowds on Black Friday is a challenge. In fact, the majority of deaths and injuries incurred on Black Friday is either due to folks trampled in stampedes or affected by pepper spray. In addition, controlling the biggest crowd of shoppers all year come store opening time, an increased Black Friday security presence can help to ensure that your customers are safe and secure.
Customer Shoplifting/ Employee Shrinkage – With such massive crowds, stores of every kind are unusually vulnerable to theft, especially in light of your staff being overstretched trying to provide service to so many people. Sadly, employee theft is more active during the holidays as well. Not only with your regular employees, but the seasonal help that also knows that come January, they won’t be collecting a paycheck anyways. Employee theft skyrockets because there is so much activity for supervisors to keep tabs on. While a security presence doesn’t guarantee that your Black Friday sales will be completely free of any shrinkage, a visible security force certainly helps.
Hire security for Black Friday
Hiring an ESS store security guard for Black Friday is a great way to help ensure the day goes smoothly, and vastly reduces shoplifting and shrinkage. Just the act of having a visible security presence is enough to prevent many would-be shoplifters. Depending on the size of your business, it may be necessary to take on more than one security guard in order to ensure that the majority of your store is under observation and surveillance.

Holiday Store Security in Florida

Posted on

ESS Global Corp provides holiday store security in Florida because for small business owners, the holiday season can be a dream as well as a nightmare. The significant increase in shoppers does wonders for your bottom line and generates brand awareness that can last into the new year. But there is a dark backside to the holidays, because with these benefits comes the need to hire additional staff members as well as additional security.
Holiday store security in Florida
This holiday season as your store begins to fill up, dishonest shoppers and untrustworthy seasonal employees will see it as a more appealing place to take what they’d like without stopping to pay the bill. According to reports by Business News Daily, U.S. retailers are expected to lose over $9 billion dollars from crime this holiday season, mostly from employee theft and shoplifting.
U.S. retailers will lose $4.7 billion through employee theft, $3.8 billion though shoplifting and $400 million through vendor and distribution, according to a new study by the Center for Retail Research.

The losses will represent a 4 percent increase over the same period last year.

Obviously, a profit decrease is exactly the opposite of what you’d hope for the busiest quarter of the year. This is why setting a plan to manage the holiday season’s larger crowds will be crucial to the success of your holiday preparation efforts.
The top three product categories most likely to be stolen over the Christmas period are alcohol, women’s clothing and fashion accessories.
Other attractive targets for crooks and sticky-fingered employees are toys, perfume, health and beauty gift packs and electronic devices such as smartphones and tablet computers.
Also making the top 10 list for thieves are toiletries for men, DVD gift sets and game consoles, food and Christmas decorations, electrical goods including hardware and DIY, watches and jewelry, and chocolates and confectionery.

“The holidays are an attractive time for criminal activities,” according to Theo Billiris at ESS Global. “Thieves take full advantage of busy stores and distracted employees to steal. Retailers need to know that this is the time of year where they face a much bigger threat from professional and semi-professional thieves. The holiday shopping season is when organized retail crime flourishes. Worse, this time of year, the average amount stolen per incident, in much higher than ‘normal’ loss throughout the year.”
ESS Global Corp provides holiday store security throughout Florida. Call the experts in security and keep your holidays calm and profitable.

Church Security Training Nationwide

Posted on

ESS Global Corp is the leader in Church Security Training nationwide. We have trained thousands of churches in over 50 countries, with congregations as small as 15 and large as thousands.
“Size doesn’t matter”, says Theo Billiris, CEO of ESS Global. “I cannot adequately express the importance of intentional security and safety by every ministry – regardless of size.”
Since no federal agency or law enforcement group keeps track of violence and killings at houses of worship, people recording cases on their own believe that there has been a disturbing uptick in recent years. Randy McAlister, a police sergeant in Minnesota doing church violence research at Concordia University, also thinks church violence is increasing and likens it to school shootings a decade ago. Church violence is on its way to becoming a persistent phenomenon.

ESS Global Corp offers faith based church security training nationwide, as well as globally.

Common Reasons for Church Violence 

There are many reasons for violence in churches. Any of the common reasons for violent eruptions on church property demonstrate a need for church security training.
Police cars at a place of worship are becoming all too common Church Security Training - ESS Global Corp
Robbery leads the list at 24% of all violent actions on church property.  Anyone of any age knows that Sunday is Money Day.
“Domestic Spillover” is the second leading cause of violence. This is when domestic relations violence finds its way into a ministry.  One reason might be that in an increasingly high-alert world, churches remain an easy “soft” target. In cases of domestic violence spillover, perpetrators know that once a week, their victim will show up at a specific time, perhaps even parking in a certain spot or sitting in a certain section.
“Personal Conflict” between two or more non-domestic-related parties represents of 13% of church violence.
It’s important to note that for 2 of the top 3 types of incidents perpetrators most likely have visited that church many times, and they might have thought twice had they seen pervasive “situational awareness”.  In other words, the act of receiving faith based church security training has the very real potential to prevent violence from even occurring. It turns a soft target to a harder target.
Obviously with acts such as robberies, drug related acts of violence (2%), gang related acts (11%) or those with confirmed mental health issues (10%) it makes even more sense to have a trained church staff, especially during services and special events.
“For you to come to us provides little value as it relates to your facility”, says Theo Billiris. “That’s why we come to you, so we can customize the training for your environment.”

Situational AwarenessFaith Based Church Security Training

It’s important that everyone; pastors, staff and assistants, all learn faith based techniques and protocols to increase situational awareness. Mr. Billiris states that “Great security firms aren’t necessarily the best choice in a church environment. In ESS faith based church security trainings we know that discernment in the Bible is a gift from God. Discerning good from evil provides a foundation for faith based security training that increases situational awareness.”
75% of churches have no security plan in place, and if you are not sure where to start, talk to the church security experts at ESS Global Corp.

VIP Protection in Florida – Tampa, Orlando and More

Posted on

If you are looking for VIP Protection in Florida, go to the source. ESS Global in Tampa, is the only Florida Department of Education licensed Protection School in Florida. So where do you go for the very best in VIP, Celebrity and Executive Protection? ESS Global Corp.
All too often, we find that clients come to us when they discover “VIP Transportation” companies are nothing more than “armed chauffeurs” commanding pretty much the same rates as using real protection from ESS Global.

VIP Protection in Florida

ESS - VIP Protection in Florida Planning
ESS Global Corp knows that safety begins with proper planning. It is generally agreed that in order for an attack or any other disturbance to take place three conditions must exist; motivation, capability and opportunity. There’s not much we can do about a potential attacker’s motivation, and their capabilities are theirs alone. Those variables are out of your control and out of our control. What ESS Global can address is denying opportunity by using advance tactics and recon. By minimizing the opportunity, a close protection security firm can greatly minimize the chances of an attack or disturbance. This is where most all VIP Transportation companies fail.
The advance work should include everything from travel arrangements from the moment you disembark from the plane at the airport; to lodging, route planning, securing vehicles, securing permits and communication/monitoring gear, to tasks such as making sure any and all information is secure and details are not leaked.ESS - VIP Protection in Florida Planning is key
We realize that the unexpected happens. We train to be prepared for the unexpected. We also plan to prevent it. Those prevention plans are alien to most VIP transportation companies and those prevention plans are the “behind the scenes” work our clients never see. They just know that everything went well and there were no hang-ups, glitches or surprises.
ESS Global Corp provides VIP protection in Florida as well as secure transportation throughout Florida, and has a presence in cities such as Orlando, Dallas, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, as well as our corporate location in Tampa.
