I would certainly advise you contact your top ranked affiliate manager on the phone and say, “I provide $ZZZ Thousands of dollars per month to your casino, I want to go to this event so I can earn more revenue for both you and me. If you sponsor me a pass, I will provide you with more real estate and more performance.”
If you are an affiliate that performs, the investment to the affiliate manager is obvious. Its that simple. If you are earning thousands of dollars a month for a casino, for them to not invite you would clearly send the wrong message to you.
No doubt that works.
