Crime Stoppers: Business Safety Program

Empower local businesses through professional security audits while creating a reliable, Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) stream for your chapter.

The Business Safety Program is a strategic initiative designed for chapters to partner directly with their

communities. By conducting comprehensive safety assessments, chapters can certify local businesses

that meet strict safety standards. In exchange for an annual subscription, businesses receive official

window decals, digital badges, and actionable crime prevention insights.

The Value Proposition.

For the Chapter: Shift away from unpredictable donations toward a stable subscription model

($250/year per business), increase visual presence across the city, and proactively harden

commercial targets.



For the Business: Leverage prominent decals as a deterrent, demonstrate a commitment to

safety for customers and employees, and receive expert security guidance on video

surveillance, lighting, physical hardware, and cash handling protocols.

The 4-Step Certification Process.

Application & Intake: Business registers and pays the initial $250 fee (refunded if permanently

denied).

On-Site Assessment: A standardized Security & Safety Audit is conducted by trained

representatives.

Remediation: If initial standards are not met, businesses receive a mandatory checklist and a 60-

day grace period for a free re-assessment.

Certification & Activation: Passing businesses receive decals (e.g., "Safety Certified 2026"),

digital assets, and an official 365-day certificate.
