Analysis
This was an interesting and enlightening poll and the results reveal what has been and continues to be true of the average LVA member, or even reader, in terms of being atypical when compared to LVCVA averages. We know our people tend to visit more, spend more, and definitely gamble more, which makes them a higher grade of potential customer. Even if you're visiting a little less often or spending a little less, it's probably still above the norm. So, thanks to all who took part; these results give us valuable ammo when approaching potential partners and affliliates and negotiating offers for our members.
Your email feedback was both insightful and voluminous-- so much the latter that we're going to run it next week as a QoD, so look out in the coming days, and have a great weekend everyone!
