How to better understand the audience?
To understand the gambling audience, you need to know the motives that drive the players.
Such motives may include:
- interactive pastime (computer games, games on the console, watching movies / TV shows)
- the only (primary) way to make money
- the existence of your game system and the desire to check it
- ludomania (gambling addiction)
In addition to motivation, there is also sort of motivation that casino users tell themselves over and over:
- I won’t make that much money if I work for boss. I'm lucky! This is really my chance.
- Finally, I will quit my boring work and become rich! All problems will be solved in one second.
- Now I’ll hit a big jackpot and buy a car. Or even better the apartment!
- I just want to recoup, pay off all the debts.
- I will win a lot of money and will never work again!
Superstition
Many users are superstitious not only in everyday life, but also in games too.
So, some players believe in different talismans (lucky number, item of clothing, amulets). Someone trusts their luck to the stars (signs, horoscopes). And someone even adheres to the saying "beginner's luck".
In fact, superstitious players are more likely to help gambling make more money. Gambling companies introduce such things as a mascot store and creative advertising campaigns targeted at superstitious players.
