Benefits of Value Card AllianceValue Card Alliance offers to our members the strongest customer support system and membership base in the industry. Even though we can offer over 54,000 businesses and still be the fastest growing trade exchange, we believe our single biggest asset is the training we give to our team to provide customer service to our members. We offer a 24 hour live hot line for transactions in addition to a corporate headquarters open 6 days per week to service your business needs. Boost SalesValue Card Alliance members prefer to purchase goods and services using VCA Trade Dollars within the VCA trade exchange system as opposed to non-member suppliers who only deal in cash. This results in increased sales opportunities for members and new customers outside the normal geographic market because VCA members go out of their way to buy from another VCA member. Members realize a great member referral business from VCA partners. Boost Your Customer BaseYour Value Card Alliance team will bring to you incremental business that you are not currently reach out to. VCA members tend to look within their own network for the services and goods that they need. This will bring you additional business that you did not currently have. Boost Cash FlowMembers can pay for business expenses with their VCA Trade Dollars, thereby conserving cash for unscheduled expenditures and investment into the growth of their business. Geographically Expand Your Customer BaseVCA members can cost-effectively expand their business market reach by using VCA's national and global directory service, in addition to easily being able to market your business around the world. Value Card Alliance members can also use our international network of network links provided, including MySpace, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook. Our exclusive international partnership with infinite barter offers to you the only trade exchange that can provide a unique link to a business to consumer trade. Value Card Alliance Offers Personal Trade BrokersEvery business within the VCA network is assigned a personal trade broker. Your trade broker will help you to utilize your VCA relationship to give you the greatest benefit. Your trade broker will work as an extension of your company for you to research and help find the items that you need. The Strength of Value Card AllianceThe cost to generate the VCA trade dollar is an important underlying benefit experienced by businesses worldwide. Many fixed costs of producing goods or services are covered through cash sales, meaning the cost of generating and fulfilling a VCA sale is your cost of good or service sold. Therefore, when you purchase goods or services using VCA, although you pay the ticket or market price, you are actually paying for your purchase with your own inventory--which costs you wholesale. In effect, each time you spend a trade dollar, you save whatever your markup profit margin is! This is the power of the VCA Trade Dollar.

Using Barter in Your Startup
If you’ve recently started a new business or are thinking about starting one, then you might be aware of the cash flow challenges that await you. However, consider a strategy that both startups and established businesses have used since commerce began that can help you preserve precious cash while still obtaining the goods and services you need to run your business: barter.
Barter is the exchange of goods or services between businesses or individuals. It can be especially beneficial for small and startup companies, because it allows each party to get what it needs by providing a product or service to the other party instead of laying out cash.
For example, consider a small Web site development firm with five employees. It wants to grow by gaining market share, but it can’t afford to pay for professional advertising or marketing services. If it could find an ad agency in need of Web site development, the firms could trade services with each other, each obtaining a valuable service it needs without having to spend money to get it.
Bartering can work just as well for manufacturers and retailers that have excess or outdated inventory that won’t move, which they can exchange with other businesses for needed goods or services. This allows companies to get some value out of inventory that they may otherwise have to mark down substantially or simply write off as a loss.
1. One of the best ways to engage in barter is to join a large barter exchange group with an excess of 1000 members. VCA is one of the few exchanges that can offer you this and the only one in Arizona. Here is the main premise behind what we do:
Companies sell their goods or services to other businesses in the network and receive trade credits (or barter “dollars”) in exchange, which they can use to buy goods and services from other member businesses.
VCA offers full business consulting to start ups that will explore all avenues of cash expenditures that may be needed during the first year. We develop a plan with you that may include a line of credit to help get you started without the out of pocket cash expense.
