Manager's Corner
 | Erin Argue, BetUS
Erin stumbled upon this industry innocently enough; wondering whether a sportsbook was hardcover or paperback. Envisioning her career as a media buyer for print was an appealing departure from marketing ESL programs; but what lay ahead was more exciting than she could have anticipated. For 3 years she concentrated her professional attention on learning about wagering and managing affiliate relationships for a renowned Sportsbook. In 2006 an incredible opportunity with BetUS was presented and she quickly settled into her new role and responsibilities as Affiliate Marketing Director for BetUS Partners.
She brings a unique approach to affiliate marketing; incorporating her passion for people and sports with the diligence and hard work necessary to manage and motivate a stellar team. Sweetening deals with home-baked treats is what she is truly known for however. Her ability to get on with nearly everyone has as much to do with her chocolate brittle pie and cheddar scones as it does her friendly personality.
