This presentation was presented on "Mobile and Tablet Gambling Conference", London 21. November 2012. The presentation outlines how to successful engage affiliate partners to drive traffic to your products with a 360' transparency, allowing for traffic growth on web, mobile web, mobile apps, web apps, social apps etc.
I have identified an "affiliate toolkit" that will give the affiliates the correct ways to integrate and promote gambling products for casino, bingo and sports betting. This toolkit should encourage gaming operators to move from low yield banners to high impact integration.

“Affiliates are GURU Webmasters and Marketers!”
• Affiliates want to heavily market and promote your products if provided the right
toolkit
• They build customer centric applications (apps, m-web and websites) to gain
loyalty and high user frequency
• Traditional Web is being replaced by ‘App Centric’ strategies
• Gaming Operators should review their affiliate strategy to meet a new breed of
affiliate entrants
