I had to make this desicion, and i came to wonder if it was to weak, so id like your point of view.
I was contacted by a relativley new skin (theyre popping up all over the place), without alot of experience, and with nothing special to offer my players except 1 semi cool promotion. We got down to business, and i got an unusually good deal.
The cristmas planning is ahead, and i came to think about what to do for our players. Up came an idea, with this deal, that could pay for a really cool cristmas lunch/pokertourney for all our players IRL, but i wasnt sure the pokersite would ever see the money back in revenue (not even in my 10 year scale, and even tough they would be getting quiete a few highrollers signed up).
Now my mind is puzzled, cos i know marketing departments at big pokersites use huge amounts on standard branding expenses, in which they cant measure the results directly.
So i decided not to do something about it in this case, and probably will again. I guess im not made for selling newspaper ads ect.
Do you guys care about the long term profit for your partner pokersites or seize the opportunity for $$$ when it comes along??
