Ep. 37 “When ‘Small Crime’ Feels Big — How Convenience Stores Can Fight Back”
Petty theft. Trespassing. Repeat offenders who walk in like they own the place. For mom-and-pop convenience stores and franchise owners, these “small” crimes aren’t small at all—they’re draining profits, scaring employees, and threatening survival.
In this episode, Don and Jim pull back the curtain on how bad the problem has gotten for local shop owners—and why the usual tools like cameras, signs, and police reports just aren’t enough. Then they introduce a game-changing solution: SafeScope.
Learn how SafeScope transforms ordinary security cameras into a powerful system that tracks repeat offenders, builds airtight evidence, and delivers rapid results.
Hear why SafeScope is giving small business owners their confidence back—with reported drops of up to 90% in property crime and 95% fewer repeat offenders.
Discover why safer stores mean stronger communities—and what you can do to support local businesses on the frontlines.
If you’re a business owner, community leader, or just someone who cares about protecting local shops, you don’t want to miss this one.
