Online casino have found their ideal market of
young college age males and are trying to milk it for
all that its worth, but the line of smart business and
marketing is being blurred with opportunistic
exploitation. Let's get serious here people when have
college students ever had enough money, to be gambling
with? But they do seem to have plenty of dysfunctional
common sense that allows them to spend freely on
online casino with credit cards, due to their
outstanding lack of responsibility and experience
functioning in the "real" world.
This, in a way, makes the college age male the
perfect target for online casinos to direct their
marketing genius upon. they will be drawn in to the
most nonsensical business transactions for the chance
at an X-games type of financial thrill, and simply at
the glance of some poorly photographed "hot girlz "
stock images. And much like the moral role models of
the tobacco industry the online casinos know that you
got to get 'em young in order to create life long
customers, simply by convincing them that "Addictions
where its at, yo."
A survey recently conducted revealed that fourteen
percent of about thirty-five hundred college age
students play at online casinos, that is, who admit
that they play at online casinos. the online casinos
have caught on to the market and are now offering
specialized prizes of free tuition and such, in order
to cater even more to the collegiate crowd. To be
honest, though, if the online casino industry want any
hope of not having its head on the chopping block in
the hand off the United States senate, it needs to
clean up marketing tactics like this and clean up
their act a bit, because catering to impressionable
youths is not going to be the way to win friends.
