Default Re: WSEx: Official Monthly Thread: January. (#5 of 5.)

[ QUOTE ]


If we assume WSEx wins, say, 10% of the total amount bet on sports, on average, then, imo, this is where they could do some sort of deal with poker affiliates, who obviously aren't going to send players to them at the moment as the affiliates will receive no payment for their marketing efforts.

If WSEx paid, say, 1% of all monies sports bet by their introduced players to the respective poker affiliates, this would encourage the affiliates to actively promote WSEx, immediately solving the marketing problem of attracting new players and thereby leading to both far more poker players on site, plus far more sports bet profit for WSEx for absolutely no prepaid outlay.

Getting the affiliates involved is one of the best ideas I've heard to recruit. I also strongly support the idea of beginner tables. We not only need to recruit, but retain.

Another idea concerning the 90 percent idea proposed is that the additional 10 percent for Bonuses, Bad Beat Jackpots etc.. these are the type of promotions that might attract a wider range of customers.
