In this episode of iGaming Daily, brought to you by Optimove, SBC's Martyn Elliott, Ted Menmuir and Ted Orme-Claye, explore a pivotal moment for UK gambling regulation as the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Gambling Reform reconvenes to launch a new inquiry into the sector's future. Chaired by Conservative Sir Iain Duncan Smith, the inquiry revisits the Gambling Act review white paper to assess whether proposed reforms still meet the evolving demands of public policy and industry accountability.Key topics at the heart of the inquiry include gambling advertising, stake limits, and the role of local authorities in regulating high-street betting. Reform advocates are calling for stricter controls on TV ads, sports sponsorships, and social media promotions, especially to protect younger audiences. Other areas under review may include the statutory levy, financial risk checks, and the creation of a gambling ombudsman to oversee consumer protections.This episode also examines the growing tension between reformist momentum and the gambling industry's lack of a unified political voice. As the UK government faces competing priorities, this inquiry could act as a catalyst for significant change, particularly in high-visibility areas like advertising, where public sentiment may sway policy decisions quickly.Host: Martyn ElliottGuests: Ted Menmuir & Ted Orme-ClayeProducer: Anaya McDonaldEditor: James RossiGaming Daily is also now on TikTok.

In this episode of iGaming Daily, hosts Fernando Noodt is joined by Elisa Marcante, Ana Maria Menezes & Damian Martinez, dive deep into the evolving iGaming landscape in Latin America, with a sharp focus on Brazil's regulatory developments. Sponsored by Optimove, the conversation opens with an analysis of the proposed increase in Brazil's Gross Gaming Revenue tax rate from 12% to 18%, a change that has triggered widespread concern across the industry. The team unpack how these proposed tax hikes could threaten the stability of Brazil's newly regulated market, just six months after its launch, and potentially cost the government billions in lost revenues and licensing fees, according to projections from the National Association of Games and Lotteries.Additionally, listeners will learn about the Brazilian government's broader regulatory efforts, which aims to introduce the National Betting System to standardise operations, protect consumers, and promote responsible gaming practices nationwide.Beyond Brazil, the podcast offers a regional roundup of key iGaming updates across Latin America. In Uruguay, lawmakers are pushing to restrict casino operations to mitigate gambling addiction, while in Peru, President Dina Boluarte's recent veto of a bill altering the tax regime for online sportsbooks has sparked fresh debate. The hosts explain how this decision preserves the current Selective Consumption Tax framework and reinforces regulatory authority over foreign operators.Host: Fernando NoodtGuests: Elisa Marcante, Ana Maria Menezes & Damian Martinez Producer: Anaya McDonaldEditor: James Ross

Send us a textJoin the Gateway OfferAre your sales calls leading nowhere? Do potential clients constantly ghost you after you've spent hours crafting the perfect proposal? There's a better way to convert prospects into paying clients, and it starts with implementing a gateway offer.Gateway offers represent a paradigm shift in service-based business sales. Unlike traditional discovery calls that often result in ghosted proposals, a gateway offer provides immediate value while getting you paid for your expertise from the very first interaction. The concept is brilliantly simple: create a low-ticket, high-value offer that gives clients a taste of what working with you is like before they commit to your signature service.As Sarah explains in this episode, the structure of an effective gateway offer includes both a live element (like an interview or assessment) and a deliverable (like a documented strategy or report). This combination builds the crucial know-like-trust factor while demonstrating your expertise in a tangible way. The magic happens when you use this paid discovery process to uncover exactly what the client needs, allowing you to perfectly position your signature offer during the review session.The results speak for themselves. After implementing gateway offers in her business, Sarah was booked out six months in advance within just four months. Even more impressive, she maintains approximately a 75% conversion rate from gateway offers to her high-ticket services. This approach transforms your sales pipeline from unpredictable to reliable while eliminating the frustration of price-shopping clients who waste your time with no intention to buy.Ready to implement this game-changing approach in your business? Sarah walks through everything from designing your gateway offer to pricing, selling, and systematizing the entire process. Whether you're struggling with inconsistent sales or simply looking to optimize your client acquisition, gateway offers provide a win-win solution that respects both your expertise and your clients' need to experience your work before making a bigger commitment.Want to create your own gateway offer? Join Sarah's Gateway Offer Challenge starting August 1st and get 10 days of training, templates, coaching, and a 1:1 consultation to design your perfect gateway offer!Join my events community for FREE monthly events.I offer free events each month to help you master your business's growth through marketing, sales, systems, and offer strategy.

Can the Tigers get involved?

As you've been hearing in our news bulletins, there's been an accusation that democracy hasn't been upheld at a meeting of Ennis's elected representatives. Tense exchanges took place during this week's Ennis Municipal District meeting where residents and business owners flooded the public viewing gallery to observe a discussion about the Draft Ennis Local Transport Plan. After a motion tabled by Fianna Fáil Councillor Tom O'Callaghan calling for the removal of proposals to reduce two-lane access to Carmody Street, Mill Road, Clare Road, Clonroad, Lifford Road and Highfield Park received unanimous support, the Clarecastle representative asked for a vote on the matter. This request was denied by Mayor of Ennis, Fine Gael Councillor Mary Howard, however, who stated that it couldn't go to a vote as public consultation is ongoing. This was met with fierce opposition from Councillor O'Callaghan as well as Sinn Féin Councillor Tommy Guilfoyle and members of the public in the gallery. Clare FM's Seán Lyons was at the meeting and spoke to local businessman Michael Barry who was one of those in attendance. Meanwhile, a local community group is lending its support to the Ennis Local Transport Plan, saying “Ennis Can't Stay Stuck in the Past”. Better Ennis, which advocates for healthier town centres, and active and public transport for all ages and abilities has robustly defended many of the proposed interventions that they believe will make the town a much healthier and attractive place to live and work. For more on this, Alan Morrissey was joined by Gearóid Mahon and Síle Ginanne from Better Ennis.

In this podcast episode, host Michelle Frechette  welcomes Felix Arntz, a senior software engineer at Google, about his decade of contributions to the WordPress community. Felix shares insights on effective communication, persistence, and attention to detail in open-source collaboration. He highlights the importance of building relationships, learning from others, and embracing the welcoming nature of the WordPress community. The episode also introduces Felix's new "View Transitions" plugin, designed to enhance user experience. Listeners are encouraged to engage, contribute, and build connections within the WordPress ecosystem.Top Takeaways:Attention to Detail Is a Key Marker of ProfessionalismFelix and Michelle emphasized that small details—like capitalizing the "P" in WordPress—may seem trivial but are taken seriously by seasoned professionals. This attention to detail reflects pride in one's work and often becomes a litmus test for developers and marketers alike when assessing quality and seriousness.Thinking at Scale and Growing Gradually Are Crucial in Open Source Contribution: Felix discussed the importance of thinking at scale, especially when contributing to WordPress core. A feature might work well for a blog with 80 posts but break down on a site with tens of thousands. Additionally, contributors are encouraged to increase scope gradually, starting with bug fixes, so they can build trust, demonstrate commitment, and avoid burnout or disappointment when larger proposals stall.Personal Motivation Can Guide Your Niche in Open Source Work: Felix shared how his contributions to WordPress core initially grew out of real-world problems he encountered during freelance work. This insight reinforces the idea that contributors should follow their authentic interests and pain points when selecting where to focus their energy, making their efforts more sustainable and impactful.Relationships and Community Are the Heart of the WordPress Project: Michelle and Felix agreed that building personal relationships—whether at WordCamps, online, or through collaborative work—is not just rewarding personally, but also essential for project momentum. Felix shared how meeting someone briefly in person changes how online collaboration feels. Michelle told a moving story about how her community connections helped her navigate an inaccessible travel situation, underscoring the tangible power of WordPress friendships.Mentioned in the Show:This Week in WordPressFelix-Arntz.me
