More bang for your buck

Troy Paul of SGG Media, on why streamers and influencer amplification are fast becoming the cornerstone of media activation for sportsbook and casino brands
Amplification is crucial to getting the most out of marketing activity and spend, but it’s something that very few online sportsbook brands are doing, let alone getting right.
Amplification means taking marketing campaigns and materials and “amplifying” them through targeted influencers that get the messaging in front of even more people.
Let me explain by way of example.
An operator will pay an athlete millions of dollars a year to create social posts about its sportsbook and offering, including new bonuses and Sunday Football Picks.
Let’s say the athlete is making a post on Monday that says he loves the Kansas City Chiefs in that week’s game and that DraftKings is offering a boost to all players who tail his bet slip.
This post will generate a decent number of impressions and clicks, but this can be “amplified” by having the top Kansas City Chiefs fan accounts retweet it on X or create an Insta story around it.
These influencers will then say things like “I love this play” or “KC fans, don’t miss out!”, boosting the message to more people and ultimately driving engagement and interaction.
In many cases, we have taken posts that will generate around 50,000 impressions and through our network of influencers, make that post go viral with 10x-20x engagement and reach.
Sportsbooks spend millions on their celebrity partnerships and brand ambassadors, but for a few thousand dollars, amplification can turbo-charge engagement with that content and transform KPIs.
And it’s not just sportsbooks that can benefit from this – so too can online casinos, casinos, racetracks and tribal casinos and sportsbooks.
Mastering the art of amplification
The channels through which amplification is the most effective are evolving with live streaming very much king these days.
The audiences behind popular sports and casino live streams are extremely loyal, and those who can lead an audience through an entertaining stream are becoming instrumental to operator growth.
Streamers are the new celebrities and the space as a whole has tons of latent potential to explore and growth to unlock, especially in terms of a media play.
In terms of how it works relating to amplification, let’s take a Tuesday NBA team in a mid-level market as an example. Most NBA fans don’t even know the game is on, let alone where to watch it.
If a popular streamer had the necessary media access to live stream the game, his loyal audience would tune in to watch the stream regardless and then in turn be introduced to the NBA.
Streamers ultimately create a community around the content they are watching, and this can directly translate to a growing audience around a sport, team, player or, of course, a betting brand.
Sportsbook and casino brands need to get in on the amplification action
This is why sportsbook and casino brands need to sign with streamers early and use them to support marketing campaigns and growth initiatives.
For me, developing a product around a streamer’s audience will prove to be an immensely important aspect for growing brand equity and boosting engagement in the months and years ahead.
For example, a client of ours recently created a 1SC promo link for the first 5,000 users to log into their account through the link. The stream reached the 5,000-user cap in 24 hours.
This means 5,000 unique accounts logged into and/or wagered through the social casino account in the 24-hour period, which is an insane metric.
This stands as a perfect example of how an operator can build out a campaign targeted at streaming, and how amplification through streaming resulted in success.
There are tons of opportunities to explore
Of course, this is just one example and there are loads of opportunities for both operators and content creators to get into.
Streamers that can leverage platforms like X, Instagram and TikTok to create a loyal audience that shows up daily for their content will be in an excellent position to monetise through partnerships.
The operators that recognise this trend early, and we are still in the early days of streaming and amplification, will get ahead of the curve in the ever-changing landscape of media activation.
But where there are opportunities there are also challenges and streaming is no different. The big one here is that no post-editing can be done as everything is broadcast in real-time.
This makes it imperative that streaming hosts are well versed in the sportsbook/casino’s brand guidelines and the compliance and responsible gambling elements that come along with it.
Influencer amplification is the cornerstone of media activation
With influencer amplification, brands don’t need to spend millions of dollars with Google AdSense or Meta ads to target fans – even though this is what’s been done up until this point.
With streaming and general influencer amplification, campaigns can be delivered directly to fans that genuinely care about the content.
What’s more, this can be done for pennies on the dollar of what traditional media would cost, and with a much better return.
In short, online and land-based gambling brands can get more bang for their buck.
