Betting on sports and brand awareness are directly dependent on each other. A brand promotes itself through advertising to get bettors to make bets on the site. These bets made on the site help in generating revenue for the website which is in-turn proportionally reinvested in brand awareness and marketing. The key metric for any brand is the bottom-line. Basically, a sports betting website should make more in betting return than the initial investment made in brand awareness. Although, sometimes the more important metric to consider is a bettorโs average life-time betting value compared to the average cost of customer acquisition.
