What past participants are saying
Fantastic Experience
I loved how engaged the group was as well as all of their fun ideas! Thank you for providing this fantastic experience for casino marketers.
Nicole Martz
Special Events and Promotions Manager
IP Casino Resort Spa
Engaging 3 Days
Enjoyed being able to “pick” the brains of those in the same field. It honestly was a very engaging 3 days. I was worried that 8 hours a day, I wouldn’t stay engaged the entire time, but I was pleasantly surprised.
Paige Schuller
Assistant Marketing Manager
Wild Rose Emmetsburg
Great Collaboration
I loved the collaboration and the ability to ask questions and get a lot of insight into what other marketers are thinking.

A.M George Marketing & Advertising
Interactive, not Intimidating
I love how interactive it is, without being intimidating.
Marcela Sada
Director of Slots
Bear River Casino Resort
A Fascinating Program
This is a fascinating program. You get to see what others are doing, thinking, talking about, etc. It is always great to hear what others are facing and how they are navigating through those items. Also, we tend to forget some things as we are “heads and hand down” during the day. This reminds us we have other areas we must pay attention to!
Aaron Harn
Marketing Director
Wild Rose Entertainment
Well-Rounded
I liked the variety of the sessions and topics chosen for the sessions, especially as a newcomer to the industry. I thought it was very well-rounded. I liked the small attendance setting because we got to know each other more than if it was a larger audience. It made networking easier. I also liked that we had assignments; I felt I was ahead of the game a bit.

Sr. Digital Marketing Manager

Great Connections
I enjoyed Casino Marketing Boot Camp and the fun group projects. Thank you for all you’ve done, especially the connections made and ideas exchanged.

Truly one of the best
It was truly one of the best training experiences I’ve had the privilege of participating in. I was thrilled to see that it wasn’t like the traditional trainings I’ve attended or sent my staff to before.
The staff members who attended with me returned energized and brimming with new ideas they were eager to implement. Witnessing their excitement and inspiration is truly gratifying for me as a leader. I’m committed to continuing this training with my team in the future.

Intimate
I liked how the small group format enabled me to converse with everyone… It is more intimate with groups and speakers compared to other bigger conferences…

It made me come out of my shell.
The Card Shark Tank was really challenging for me. Being new to marketing it made me really think about how to put together a presentation and how to present it. It made me come out of my shell. I just want to thank you and everyone on your team! You are all awesome!

How 5 Quick Questions Can Save Your Casino Email Campaign
At some point, we started treating email like it’s free. And free is exactly how it became the junk drawer of marketing: the channel we reach for whenever a promotion needs a push. But every lazy send makes the next good one worth less, and it quietly chips away at the person doing the sending. Five questions, run before you hit send, are what turn a casino email from an inbox filler into something that actually moves guests.
Why Understaffed Marketers Should Prioritize What Matters Most – and How to Do It
Nobody staffs a regional marketing department for the workload. They staff it for the budget, which leaves you doing the job of eight people with a team of two. The skill that saves you isn’t doing more. It’s learning to sort every task into what only you can do, what you can teach someone else to do, and what you can finally let go.
What the World Cup Teaches Us About Casino Marketing Teams That Win
The best teams at the World Cup don’t win because they have the biggest rosters or the largest budgets. They win because they’re prepared — coached, drilled, and built around a deliberate system before the first match is played. Regional casino marketing teams have the same opportunity. The question is whether you’re building a formation or just filling a calendar.
Evaluate. Collaborate. Formulate.
We have five goals:
- Inspire you with speakers and activities you haven’t had access to before.
- Address issues you face daily, items that keep you up at night.
- Reach out beyond our industry for new ideas.
- Connect you with colleagues using candor and expertise from those who face similar challenges.
- Send you away with tactics and strategies you can put together in action the day you return to your property.
