iGAMI MAKING COLLABORATION OVERTURES TO OTHER AFFILIATE BODIES

Forget the rivalries - let's all work together, says Nank

Brian Nank, the chairman of the affiliate standards body iGAMI.org - International Gaming Affiliate Marketing Initiative - is taking on a monumental task - an attempt to bring a diverse range of online gambling marketing affiliate organisations under one roof for the improvement of the industry.

The affiliate sub-industry has always been susceptible to rivalries and highly independent approaches to professional and ethical situations, and Nank is encouraging his fellow affiliates to get past that in the interests of a more consistent and cohesive approach to problems facing the online gambling industry.

His first move is to openly petition delegates from several of the top affiliate communities using acronyms like GPWA.net, CAP, APCW and PAW. "It is our sincere hope that each of these online gambling affiliate groups will designate individuals to represent them and serve on the iGAMI Advisory Board where they will be involved in shaping the future of our industry. It is iGAMI's view that bringing representatives of each group together in one assembly will provide us with a greater ability to cooperate on issues of immediate interest to the entire industry," says Nank.

"Integrating a delegate system into the iGAMI Advisory Board will preserve the autonomy of each group while allowing us to collaborate as an industry when the need arises. It will permit us to achieve both organizational and group goals effectively and efficiently for the betterment of everyone involved," Nank concludes, urging affiliate leaders to contact him with any questions.

The International Gaming Affiliate Marketing Initiative - iGAMI.org, is a non-profit organization with a Code of Conduct designed to provide guidance and protection to all affiliates and marketers promoting online gaming.
