Hey guys, please join me in welcoming the BigBetPoker.com affiliate program here onto PAL. BigBetPoker is on the Merge network, and as many of you know Merge has been seeing explosive growth lately.

The other great thing about BigBetPoker is that our affiliate managers are John and Melanie. Both have been in the industry for several years and many of you may have met them at shows. One thing I can guarantee you about working with these two is that you'll never have a hard time reaching them, and that you'll receive exceptional customer service.

You can read their full review here.

Likewise I have invited John into this thread to answer any questions you may have for him.

Thanks Enke...

Hello PAL Members. My name is John and I’m new to this forum. I’ve met a lot of you guys in the past at either the PAL event or the CAP events.

I use to work with G-Powel and Enke back in the days when we worked at CAP and PAP together. These guys made work fun because they were always cracking jokes. Those were good times.

The last year or so, I’ve been on my own as an Affiliate. I’ve done everything from building mini-sites, to buying media to emailing lists. I was kind of a jack of all trades and a master of none affiliate. I learned a lot and I learned quickly what the challenges of breaking into the gaming space these days as an Affiliate. It was definitely a roller coaster ride. Ultimately, I have a new found respect for Affiliate Marketing.

I got along well with the guys over Casino Coins and VIP.com so they eventually offered me a position to help grow their Big Bet Poker brand. I’ve moved to Curacao a few months ago and here I am now. I’m looking forward to getting to know you guys and bouncing some ideas, experiences and questions of each other.

Off course, if you need any assistance with Big Bet Poker, you know who to come to. Melanie will also be assisting me in our Affiliate Efforts at Big Bet. She comes from the Player Admin side of our operations and has tons of experience dealing with our top players.

Jeremy, thanks for the intro

Hello PAL members,

As a new member, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Melanie. I’m new to Affiliate Marketing, but I have more than 9 years of experience in the gaming industry. I have a good understanding of what players want from working closely with them. I’d like to be a good resource for the PAL members here.

My expertise is with horse racing, risk management for sports players, and casino retention/rewards. Let me share with you just a bit of my experience…

I started at Royal Sports around 9 years ago in the horse racing field. After two years of experience in the horses department, I moved to the VIP.com group. Here I assisted management in testing and selecting of new software for the horse racing department, working closely with the developers. Next I worked for the Risk Management Team, for two years. My experiences in this department have given me insight view and understanding of the sports market.

My specialization is actually customer retention for both sports as well as casino players. With the English Harbour Gaming Venture, I worked with our biggest high rollers for three years. To make a long story short, I'm moving now into the poker world, with one of fastest growing poker rooms, on the Merge Gaming Network, sharing my experience and new ideas.

As Affiliate Coordinator at Big Bet Poker, I will be working with John Dang who is directing our Affiliate Efforts. It's a pleasure for me to be part of this team. So now you know, any questions feel free to PM me or use my contact info. Advice requests are absolutely welcome...

Let’s connect, collaborate, and share. With that said, please consider me as your resource for any questions you might have regarding players in the online gaming industry.


See you Soon!

Cheers,

Melanie
