Exceptional Orange County Holiday Security

When the holidays are upon Orange County residents and businesses, it is a special time when visitors are in town, new products are launched just in time to end up under the tree, and the air is filled with holiday cheer. The increased activity can be energizing, but it is also a time when criminals recognize people are distracted and easier to target. Busy stores with overwhelmed cashiers and stock staff can leave merchandise losses at an all-time high. It is much easier to use the expertise of well-trained loss prevention security guards to get through the holidays and beyond.

Protection of Assets

Many of our holiday customers count on our security guards to protect their investments and assets. This can include retail security to stop shoplifters, but sometimes irreplaceable items deserve that extra level of protection during the holidays. When hosting a significant event at your home or business, you can keep private items safe and secure. The reveal of a hot new technology breakthrough may include making a prototype public. Instead of taking risks or assuming your staff can handle the holiday crowds, hiring a security officer adds a layer of protection you won’t regret.

When events are advertised, the crowds will come. Anytime an Orange County business is posting or marketing to bring in the crowds, they should consider adding a private security guard to the mix. It is always better to be proactive about security and put guests and staff at ease.

Short-Term and Temporary Security

Short-term and temporary security officers are an excellent solution to ramp up security during the holidays, whether for an event, a grand opening, or anticipated busy shopping days. A uniformed officer sets the tone and lets thieves know they won’t get away with stealing! The cost is nominal compared to potential losses from lost merchandise, shoplifting, and bad customer experiences that can tarnish a company’s reputation. Survey after survey reveals that the presence of a uniformed officer at an event or a shopping mall, or a store, puts customers and employees at ease. Instead of burdening employees with emergencies, catching crooks, and monitoring every customer interaction, one holiday security guard can handle all these tasks professionally.
