About This Webinar

Every LP leader has sat across from a CFO and tried to put a price on something that didn't happen. The theft that got deterred, the crew that drove right past your store and hit the one down the street instead. It's the hardest number in this business to prove, and most of us have been guessing at it for years.

So we asked. TalkLPnews and LVT surveyed loss prevention and asset protection pros across retail, grocery, convenience and logistics, and we followed an incident all the way down the line. How often you can identify who did it, how often law enforcement actually opens a case, how many of those turn into an arrest and then a conviction, and how much of the stolen value ever comes back. Then we asked how your company justifies prevention spend, and what's standing in the way.

Run that math from incident to conviction and you get a pretty clear picture of what the prosecution path actually returns. Then you can decide for yourself what prevention is worth. The results are in, and I want to argue about them.

Join me, Amber Bradley, along with Steve Lindsay, co-founder and chief strategist at LVT, for a straight-talk breakdown of what the industry told us, where the answers split, and what to do with it the next time you're defending a budget line in a room full of people who've never worked a store.

Bring your opinions. We're bringing ours.

Amber Bradley, M.A., LPQ

Founder and Editor-in-Chief, TalkLPnews

Amber Bradley founded TalkLPnews in 2020 for loss prevention and asset protection professionals who were tired of reading vendor brochures dressed up as news. It has since grown into numerous digital publications, a podcast network, a digital mini-mag and an industry app. Amber hosts the interviews herself, unscripted, and has a habit of asking the question everyone else in the room was thinking but didn't want to say out loud.

She also runs APEX, an in-person conference for LP and AP retail executives, and Calibration Group, LLC, which produces training videos and content for retail clients.

Between the two, she spends a lot of time with the people actually doing the work, so her coverage of organized retail crime and security tech comes from the stockroom as much as the boardroom.

Amber spent nearly 10 years as Executive Director of the Restaurant Loss Prevention and Security Association (RLPSA), which gave her a working knowledge of the restaurant side that most retail-focused voices don't have. Her background is in marketing and public relations.

She holds a Master of Arts in Communication and a Bachelor of Arts in Marketing/Communication.
