Horizon Consultant Group created a unique and affective Loss Prevention Program designed specifically for privately owned business merchants in all sales industries. Whether you’re a family ran business with one store, or a chain of locations with many employees, there will always be a need to better structure and maintain inventory, employees, security, increase profit, and minimize loss. You are in business to profit in every aspect of what that word means to you, and we pride ourselves on catering specifically to your goals by developing a structure that helps you reach and maintain what you work so hard for.
We are not a security company, but rather a risk assessment service that provides you and your staff sound industry training & techniques that address all security/loss prevention needs. What sets us apart from the others is that our program’s goal is to provide you the knowledge needed to be self- sufficient, not reliant on costly equipment and services. Through unique analysis & training, we will utilize and improve your current resources and teach you to better direct your staff so you can minimize risk, maintain product and increase profit. You and your staff will have the ability to recognize and properly address security issues specific to your business needs.
We have experts in the Loss Prevention and law enforcement fields that have spent decades successfully addressing loss prevention and security matters. We have taken that expertise, along with that of business professionals, and created this program that is unique, evolving, and catered to be taught and utilized by you and your staff.
Our services and costs will reflect what you need and request. We offer entire packages encompassing all services, or individual services as needed, and billed accordingly. We do not require you purchase unnecessary services, but help you better identify what areas your business requires and what services we have to help address those concerns.
A business should not have to spend endlessly on addressing costly security issues. Instead, you should have the opportunity of services that will equip you internally on how to prevent, maintain and evolve with security needs so you can keep your profits profit, rather than re-directed your hard earned money on continued security costs.
Our training program addresses several areas for merchants. Store owners and management learn to better record and track inventory, recognize areas of loss and mitigate personnel issues.
