Given that Full Tilt Poker is back up and running, PokerStars is alive and well, there is a plethora of online casinos available around the world, the United States advertising industry is poised and ready to capitalize on the legalization of online gambling in the US. According to the marketing periodical Advertising H, they estimate that the benefits of legalizing gambling in the United States via the Internet will be the “next boom for the advertising industry” this particular article highlights figures from a gambling consultancy that showed from $3.5 to $4 billion could easily be invested in marketing within the next five years by marketing and Internet gambling website operators. That dollar amount is more than what General Motors’s plant in the United States on its advertising in 2011. It is anticipated that by the end of 2017, United States online gambling may be able to generate more advertising revenue than even the overwhelming leader, the insurance sector.

These estimates are based on the gross value of the gambling market available online, which is been estimated at roughly $1 billion by the end of 2014. It is also estimated that online gambling will increase to $13 billion within the next 12 years. This is calling for the need for additional marketing, particularly if online gambling was legalized in the US, because they need to drive additional players to their website to improve and ensure the success of all online gambling companies. It is possible that up to 30% of revenues from gambling companies within the United States will spend their money on advertising as well as marketing. This will increase the business of digital media and other agencies drastically, boosting the economy exponentially in the area of marketing, computer software and development and much more. Although online gambling companies spend very little money within the last few years, they were limited to search engine optimization in order to increase their clientele. However, this particular scenario is rapidly changing, and more companies will be spending more time and money on interactive advertising, including billboards, magazines, television and Internet.

Although there is a specific demographic that is being targeted for online gambling advertising, major land casino owners would be able to increase their marketing budgets to compete with legalized online gambling once it becomes a staple in the United States. However, there are also some impediments, including the need to undergo extensive licensing processes, which is costly and time-consuming. It will also require a number of anti-gambling policies to be changed, in order to provide online gambling sites the opportunity to market and promote their sites outside of search engine optimization opportunities. What this likely will do, is that when online casinos get the go-ahead from the United States government, they are going to be in a mad scramble to get market share, critical mass and notoriety. What this means, is that the United States as a whole stands to benefit greatly from legalization of online gambling, because of the extensive amount of money that it will pour back into the economy through marketing and advertising expenditures, job creations and much more.

When looking at the various aspects of the American casinos along with the changing trends, many experts can give their opinion. Although the American casinos are very dependent on the country’s economic standings, the country’s economic standings are also very dependent on the casinos. When looking at the casino industry and thinking forward, many people in the industry are very optimistic about the future in all aspects of gaming.

New technology and finding ways to better utilize the Internet may help play a role in gambling but as for now, experts are seeing well into 2015 and making predictions based on current trends. As with any other marketing opportunity, these projections can fluctuate on a constant basis but the outlook seems to look good for the future of casino gambling.

In the United States, casino revenue is on the up rise. It is estimated that the casino gaming industry will see a rise in gross revenue profits of approximately five percent over the next three years. In 2010, the revenues brought in by American casinos stood at $57.5 billion. It is projected to expand to over $73 billion by 2015.

While analyzing the different casinos in the United States, there are a few different regional areas that may do better while other areas do worse. Predictions for Atlantic City, New Jersey are not looking too good according to casino industry experts and followers. In 2011, the industry brought in $3.3 billion in Atlantic City and by 2015, it is projected that the revenue will fall to $2.8 billion. In Las Vegas and in other areas in Nevada that have gambling casinos, the revenue for 2011 was $10.7 billion that year. By 2015, it is anticipated that Nevada casinos will see a decent growth in profits of $13 billion. Regional casinos that are sprinkled across the nation on riverboats or in other areas brought in $18 billion in 2011 and are projected to rake in over $24 billion by 2015. The other casinos, tribal casinos are also projected to do rather well in the future. In 2011, the tribal casinos across the United States totaled a $27.5 billion profit and should anticipate an increase to $33.4 billion by 2015.

When looking at the whole bigger picture, Nevada is considered the casino gaming capital. The jump in the projected revenue from 2011 to 2015 would be around one-fifth of the whole gaming market in the United States. That jump is very critical and ambitious. That is the casino gambling projection as a whole and it could be broken down even further by game. Overall, the outlook for the gambling industry in the United States is looking pretty good. Atlantic City is the only area where it may be flailing a bit but with new marketing campaigns that have been launched in the area, it could at least level out.

While no one can actually forecast the potential that the casino industry has in the next few years, the experts are at least optimistic. It will not make or break the industry but could add for additional changes in the future and the implementation of new technologies that may breakthrough.

When it comes to the Show-Me State, gambling is not the first concept that comes to mind. However, Missouri unrolled the carpet opening a brand new casino toward the end of October, 2012. This is the states’s thirteenth casino as a few are scattered among the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers on both sides of the state in Kansas City and St. Louis.
According to Missouri law, all casinos in the state are to be riverboat casinos, along the banks of the major rivers though many of these casinos have had issues with flooding in previous years, having had to shut down for long periods of time, costing the city and the state a lot of money that is spent on gambling.
The Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. broke ground in 2011 on a brand new casino set up in Cape Girardeau. The company spent $135 million to build the casino in this southeast Missouri town. The amenities of the casino include five restaurants, a thousand slot machine, 28 game tables, and a multipurpose room that seats 750 people. The casino itself is estimated to bring in at least a million people each year to downtown Cape Girardeau and has created 450 new jobs for the area. The majority of people see this as an enormous economic boost for this small Missouri community with a population of just under 40,000 residents.
In 2008, a ballot was approved by Missouri voters that limited the number of casinos in the state to 13 casino licenses. In St. Louis in 2010, one casino closed. On behalf of the Missouri Gaming Commission, the Cape Girardeau location was chosen rather than other alternative proposed locations in Kansas City and St. Louis.
The Isle of Capri is based in St. Louis, Missouri and operates a total of 15 other casinos, including one additional one already in Missouri. The entire Gaming Commission of the state of Missouri had to meet in order to approve the opening and staff members tested the equipment of all operations before opening the casino to the public.
While there was some opposition to having the casino in Cape Girardeau, the largest concern when casinos come to town is that they are thought to instigate higher crime rates. Since the 1990s, when casinos first entered the Midwestern states, there is no proof behind this idea. Instead, however, it has created a lot of excitement and potential in the city of Cape Girardeau to give it an economic surge, not just at the casino but in the entire community.
The great thing about the casino landing in Cape Girardeau is that there is little other reason for someone to visit the area as it is a small community. There are minimal reasons for tourists to visit this area unless people have family there or just happen to run across the area. A casino should draw several opportunities and help boost the economy and will allow for other businesses to grow in the vicinity as well since tourism to the area should boom.
