Steps to increase safety during showings.

For the landlords that show property to tenants, I'd like to know what steps you take to increase personal safety during showings.  I typically have success finding tenants by posting listings to craigslist. However, with the increase of violence target at Craigslist posters in my area, I could see some fool mistaking me (landlord) as an easy target. 

I personal allways conceal carry during showings and try to stay aware of my surroundings at all times. However, I'm very interested in what steps others here are taking.
