    Improve cash flow with The Chef Alliance's gift card printing service

    		 When a plastic gift card is sold, you keep the cash until the gift card is used to purchase your services

    "Breakage": 

    Gift Card breakage is a source of income - call The Chef Alliance for giftcard printing services

    		 Many customers will not use every cent on their plastic gift card.  "Breakage" is the unused balance on each card, which generally ranges from 10 to 20%.  In other words, for every $15 Gift Card that you sell, approximately $2.25 will never be redeemed, and this falls (in most areas) directly to your bottom line!

    Plastic's In - Paper's Out:

    gift cards are better than gift certificates - call The Chef Alliance

    		 Plastic Gift Cards outsell paper gift certificates by 200-400%

    Branding opportunity: 

    Brand your personal chef service with gift cards printed by The Chef Alliance

    		 Keep your business on your customers’ minds with custom printed plastic Gift Cards, which act a "your billboard in their billfold"

    Enhanced Advertising:

    Enhance the image of your Personal Chef Business with gift card printing with The Chef Alliance

    		 Improves your company image, and adds professionalism. Plastic cards set you apart from your competition.  Use plastic cards instead of the old paper gift certificates

    No fraud losses:

    reduce fraud losses with The Chef Alliance's gift card printing service

    		 Eliminate the possibility of counterfeiting which exists with paper gift certificates.  Plastic gift cards are more difficult to be counterfeited.  You know the serial numbers of the cards which have been issued

    Reduce administrative costs:

    reduce administrative costs with a Gift Card printing service from The Chef Alliance

    		 Paper gift certificate administrative costs run as high as 8% of the total gift certificate sales. Five plastic gift cards reduce this cost by as much as 90%.  Redeemed Gift Cards can be used again
