Revenue Optimization with StatsDrone

This past week, I presented a keynote on why online casinos close. I did share some data that shows what is behind the scenes that would lead a casino to close at all in the first place. In this short solo cast, I share a few more insights but my work in analyzing closed casinos isn't done yet!

If you haven't made a serious start in AI tools today in running and optimizing your affiliate business, you might be getting left behind. My personal take, the transformation we see today will be more profound than the internet itself. I think this is a new era of affiliate marketing beyond the new world of Google. Google isn't the dominant player it used to be and likely will continue to lose marketshare to other AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and many others. So how am I using AI for our business? Listen and tune in.

We are on the look out for a revenue architect for StatsDrone and someone who knows what it is like to negotiate deals with affiliate programs. We don't fun your standard affiliate business as we are a SaaS for affiliates, but the revenue potential could help us grow. This is something I learned from one of our customers that told me, hiring a revenue officer was one of the best decisions they made as a company that grew revenue. Are these people account managers or affiliate managers? No matter what you call them, they are important people that will be sought out as time goes on.

Why do online casinos close? There are many reasons but what should be the bigger concern is that these casinos close taking down their recurring revenue with it. How can you avoid casinos that might close beyond just asking for listing fees?

I've been to a lot of affiliate conferences in the last 15+ years and not all the speakers and panels are great. Some are terrible and a complete waste of time but we always hope for the best. I remember when content got so bad that I stopped going to the panels and speaker keynotes. The networking was good enough but I felt that in iGaming and affiliate marketing that things could be another level up. So what conferences are worth attending that you get great value from the content? Is it Affiliate World, Affiliate Summit, iGB Affiliate events, NEXT.io events, SiGMA World, Affpapa, SEO IRL in Toronto, CM SEO, SEO Estonia, SEO Mastery Summit, SEO Spring Training? Let me know what you think are the best events for content and why?
