It was nice just sitting there and letting someone else do all the work. There was no stress in entertaining. It made the evening more pleasurable especially when everyone was ready to go home and you didn't have to clean up you could just go to bed and not have to get up to a mess. Thanks again for a wonderful evening. Connie

This was such a treat – we will definitely do it again! Steve was incredible, the food was awesome and all of our guests were totally impressed!!!! Being busy working parents with 2 active teenagers, if we had Steve’s help more often, we would definitely entertain more!

GIFT CERTIFICATE PROGRAM


  

 

Over 80% of successful businesses have loyalty reward programs.   

 

 

In an age of increasing competitiveness, loyalty reward programs are proven strategies to retain old clients and attract new clients, create word of mouth referrals and increase employee motivationand productivity - all of which will increase your revenues

 

Our Loyalty Rewards Program

Our loyalty rewards program can be especially designed for any business and geared towards your clients or your employees.

Giving cash incentives is undignified.  Merchadise rewards are not as effective since everyone has their own tastes and can generally afford the items they need; and since almost every other major rewards program offers merchandise, your program will not stand out.

The Chef Alliance allows you to offer exclusive, unforgettable, positive experiences that have consistently been rated the best experience people have ever had, and one they are likely to repeat.  

Our typical in-home dining experience consists of:

  • Our Chef will conduct a consultation to inquire about eating preferences and dietary restrictions
  • Our Chef will customize a menu specifically designed for the event and schedule the event date
  • Our Chef will shop for the freshest groceries on the day of the event 
  • Our Chef will attend at their home on the event date with the groceries and cooking utensils
  • Our Chef will prepare and serve the selected menu
  • Our Chef will clean up the kitchen afterwards!

 

After each experience, we conduct a follow-up questionnaire to rate their experience from 0 to 10 in categories of taste, plate presentation, punctuality, appearance and dress and courtesy.  In addition, they are asked to provide their comments, which are then forwarded to you.  In over 95% of the time, the experiences are rated an astounding 10/10!

 

 

Other available experiences include private culinary adventures (cooking classes), 'Iron Chef' Experiences, Romantic Picnics, Cocktail Parties and many more! 

 

Experiences last a lifetime

Everytime the Chef Experience is remembered, your business will be remembered in a positive way, hence increasing loyalty - and that is what every business wants!

We have the expertise to carry out your Loyalty Program with the highest of standards.

 

Our Guarantee

Our committment to you is that if you are not completely satisfied with the program within the first six months, we will completely refund all your service costs.

 

How it Works

We provide you will personalized loyalty reward cards for each of your clients or employees, displaying your corporate name, graphics and their name ($3.00 per card). 

Every time your client uses your services or your employee reaches their goals, you update their profile with credits.  They can then redeem their credits for unique in-home dining experiences.   

Since we have thousands of Chefs, each with different culinary backgrounds, every Chef Experience is different.  So, one time they may book a Classical French dinner for 2 and the next time, they may book a Thai-themed cooking class and so on - the possibilities are endless!

 

Through our program, you have the capability to express: 

Congratulations:  Show your client or employee just how much they mean to your businesss.  Personaized treatment is proven to build loyalty, bringing clients back time and again and increasing employee retention and productivity.  Our program will automatically send a personalised message from you for special occasions, giving bonus rewards pre-selected by you for birthdays, anniversaries, opening of a new office, or any other signficant event that you want to celebrate.
Thank-you: Automatically, extend a sincere token of appreciation to those clients that repeatedly use your services or employees for their dedication to building your business.
We Miss You:  Get a handle on attrition.  Encourage lost clients to come back and improve employee retention.

 


Other capabilities of the program includes:

Referral Program: Create a program that will motivate your clients to refer your service to other professionals and encourage employees to bring in business for you.
Tracking: Your clients or employees can track their credits status online (additional $25.00 per month).
Convenience:  Allow clients or employees to enroll in your loyalty program online or at your premises.
Follow-up:  Our system can automatically follow up with each client after each booking, after each addition of points or at regular intervals.
Reminder:  Automatically send out monthly or bi-monthly reminders to program participants about their reward status, and the next reward level that they can achieve.  An excellent way to stay at the forefront of their minds.  Clients will be more likely to call you, not your competitors!  Employees will be encouraged to keep up their strong work ethic.
Marketing:  Produce targeted mailings, with the option of using pre-written or customized letters, that are delivered to your progarm participants by email.


What it Costs

The Chef Alliance makes setting up a customized loyalty reward program for your clients, seamless, easy and very inexpensive.  The monthly service costs to implement the program are as little as $35.00 per month (less than the cost of one coffee a day) in addition to a one time design and set up fee of $150.00.  

Our program can be implemented city-wide or country-wide.  It can be used for small, medium or large businesses, with one or multiple locations.  There are no long term commitments, no contracts, no termination penalities.  Your satisfaction is our concern. 

Implementing a loyalty rewards program does not require any major investments or inventory - you only pay for the rewards if and when they are redeemed by the program participants.   And by that time, you have already made your money back with increased sales or employee productivity - so it really is a No Loss - High Gain program!On average 15-25% of participants collect rewards and never redeem.  

 

Our Gift to You

Whether you have 10 or 10,000 program participants, to kick start your loyalty rewards program, we will provide each of them with a complimentary $25.00 gift card as the first level of reward just for signing up!
