Big Affiliates

[Carola94]

Hello Everyone.

I'm creating an online casino with a Private Equity company.
We already have the business plan, however because it's a big investment the PE company wants to recover their capital quite fast, so the best way to do that, is by having a rev. share deal with some big affiliates.
So the question is how can I contact them/find them?
In case someone is interested please contact me, we can pay 50% of the net revenue (it won't be time limited).

Thank you for your time.

The only way that big affiliates will start working with you from the start - meaning without knowing if you are reliable, if you pay on time, if your casino works well, the support is good and you know how to convert players - is if you pay flat fee.
Some will start on rev-share of course, but they will test you on low spots and see how you convert and maybe in the future move up.

Good Luck!

"is if you pay flat fee".... Yeahhh, we love flat fees.
In fact, there are thousands of online casinos, some of them function without affiliate programs.
"Unknown" brands with "unknown" owners barely attracts serious affiliates.
You have a hard task Carola94

There are prob 1000+ online casino sites that affiliates can promote. They will need a very good reason to promote you ahead of the rest.

Hi Carola94. This is a question I think all affiliate managers ask Well Affiliate Conferences is a good one and LAC2015 is around the corner. Maybe try that out. Good luck.

Thank you, I will, it's the best way to show our business model.
Besides the London, Amsterdam and Barcelona ones, which conferences are the "must go"? I've searched and there are dozens but many are not gambling related.

when reading your comments you clearly have no idea how this industry works and you do need to able to cover your losses (player wins) before you will ever make a profit.

besides that big affiliates can drop your brand whenever they feel like it and with so many online casinos to compete with and solely relying on affiliates you have a mission impossible IMO.

remember if your PE company will lose all their money due to your incompetence you will have to pay them back one way or the other they do not care about you.

Most of the "smarter" large affiliates will NOT work with a group that does not design an affiliate program that is good for small affiliates.

The reason is simple. Any terms or restrictions that have the potential to hurt smaller affiliates, also have the potential to hurt large affiliates if they have business issues outside of their control, such as temporary drops in search engine results etc.

Maybe get a super affiliate or two and cut them in on your business. Offer 5% of the business plus a commission structure and you may find a few that would be willing to try to work with you. Plus the experience that they could bring to the table could end up being in valuable as you get started.

I still think its a wrong strategy by all means... every "Big" affiliate started as small affiliate
And if you target the small and make them feel at home they'll remember you when they'll be "big" !
