Re: Contributed = looser games
Hey guys,
If the marketing strategy Fred mentioned is affiliates, how does the process work exactly? I mean, I understand the big ones that advertise here and at other poker sites. What are some of the other methods they employ to attract sign-ups?
How do they attract the unwashed outside of television and print ads? In all of my time spent in poker circles, I have never come across an affiliate of an affiliate, much less an affiliate.
I mentioned twice in last months thread the possibility of slick looking business cards that could be handed out to players we connect with during live play (with no feedback [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]). The brief conversations while grabbing a smoke or whatever make it difficult to articulate the benefits of playing at WPX. However, a card with the appropriate web address would be a convenient way of getting the word out.
From the numerous conversations I have had with other potential contributors, the only site they know is Full Tilt. Clearly, just talking to people isn't enough. They need something shiny and tangible to get their visual emotions involved.
