Hi MD,
Actually, it seems that casinos are still in the ‘create two banners, throw them out there, and let the affiliates do their best’ mode.
I’ve spoken with several of my affiliate managers in the past couple of weeks about this lazy attitude to promotion for affiliates – but don’t think it’s done much good. Never mind all the tools you’d like to see – I’d be happy with just regular updates of banners and some affiliate newsletters with new promotions. I can name a few companies that haven’t put out a banner since last July!!! and one is still pushing a promotion on their casino site for that month.
We usually get notices of new promotions after they are over and, in fact, I probably get about six newsletters with updates out of about 40 companies.
So far, Casino Blasters appears to have the best suite of tools in my stable – apart from banners. At least they’re trying.
