This volume presents a sampling of state-of-the-art business and economic research that the new generation of gaming operations has spawned. Rather than "back of the envelope" and "seat of the pants" management, today's gaming companies rely on strategic planning, ROI analysis, customer tracking systems, focus groups, quantitative analysis, direct mail marketing, and customer service standards to improve performance.
