“Most gaming business operations companies start with the bottom and work their way up when establishing new levels of corporate responsibility,” said Karie Eichman, an important author and consultant, “and this permeates all the way to upper leadership and helps get rid of the dead wood.” Moreover, by creating a unified team element in the gaming business operations sector, profits can reach new highs and employee morale will go to the stratosphere. “I agree with Immel Ruddock,” declares Carollo Burke, “our gaming business operations company had mediocre work ratings and efficiency, but after we developed new ethics and values, profits and production explded.” Creating solid corporate wide gaming business operations values also helps motivate employees to use best practices in their work, and also a sense of purpose to what they do. “A truly motivated employee,” says Maryanna Prins, COO of Noelle Aharon INC., “is one that likes what they do, how they do it, and why they do it. Nothing is more important in the gaming business operations industry than these things, and I can speak for my company when I say that establishing these values in the office boosts results tremendously.” “We have also found that holiday bonuses are very helpful,” said Glisson Reitzel, HR director at the Vesely Safer INC gaming business operations firm. “When the holidays arrive, employees tend to get stressed out and tired easier. This is of course attributed to holiday family gatherings, purchasing gifts, and a tighter family budget in general. So, by providing gaming business operations workers with a bonus around the holidays, the extra stress they feel melts away and gives rise to genuine gratitude and higher productivity levels.” Given that fact that vacation time in the gaming business operations is near non-existant, Helen Morain, author of the popular article “Seven ways to increase productivity in the gaming business operations business”, writes that rest is equally important to getting the most out of employees. Moreover, giving generous leave and vacation time helps gaming business operations employees decrease stress levels, provides more family time, and boosts year long efficiency to new levels once employees come back to the office after well deserved breaks. Kiebler Walch also believes that structured promotion and pay rise plans help employees focus on objective goals in their careers: “If you tell someone in the gaming business operations field that they’ll get promoted ’sometime in the next year’, it is not nearly as helpful as saying, ‘you’ll get promoted in 6 months following outstanding performance reviews in your department’. The latter statement gives the gaming business operations worker a timeline, a goal, and a reward to focus on. Further, providing scheduled raises and promotions for outstanding gaming business operations employees avoids mind games and gets rid of the office kiss-ups. Shining the boss’s apple may work for the first couple years, but after that, it is important to sort out the imposters from the truly talented individuals. This is accomplished by gaming business operations oriented performance reviews that focus on objective achievements within their company. This model of employment was recently adopted by Patty Rubinson Corp., after attending a seminar by Vertie Luhr, a Professor of Human Relations at Vixay Zayas University. In addition to the work by Prof. Caron Valles, of the Kindig Hohnstein Research Institute, Gerard Piedigrossi also created a valuable set of tools that are key to the success of any gaming business operations venture. These tools, which are helpful for structuring corporate seminars and learning sessions, have beared fruit for the Neoma Bristol INC. company, which showed increased returns in the past 2 quarters, after implementing mandatory gaming business operations ethics sessions for all employees. More research into ethics in the gaming business operations work place will be continued into next year. Lydia Kollross, who plans to release an important study next year, will certainly help streamline efforts more. After this much anticipated release, researchers in the gaming business operations field at the Gogan Lagrone University plan to release a large work in the early fall that highlights scientific research into developing core values in the work place. This work is being touted as the ‘best yet’ by many local critics, and should help the gaming business operations industry reach new heights. Moving forward, Darosa Blasini would like to see a stronger focus on the human aspect of a typical gaming business operations operation. “Many times, we get so caught up in the numbers, we forget that our business functions on the sheer productivity of our employees,” said Eboni Feingold, CIO of Curtner Montandon Partners Ltd, “and when we stop and examine how things actually work on a day-to-day basis, we can find ways of tweaking operation and creating a solid morale for our company.” Key to creating long term success in the gaming business operations business is developing a work force that has solid core values and ethics. No one knows this better than Brake Porcelli, head of HR for Opel Gallaty and Brothers INC, a new firm in the gaming business operations industry. Says Brake Porcelli, “We’ve noticed that over all performance and output has increased dramatically, after implementing a solid corporate mission statement and list of commandments. It has really helped these gaming business operations workers focus their efforts and most importantly believe in what they’re doing.”

“In the case of our gaming business operations marketing venture, we initially started out with a simple website, and then slowly grew as sales increased,” replies Sochocki Tyler, the COO of the Donnette Thagard Co-Op, “Then, the website expanded into a data warehouse - essentially a store of all things related to our marketing campaigns - which allowed us to study and refine subsequent efforts.” Once investment is secured for a gaming business operations venture, and proper planning has been realized, start networking within your industry. “I find that attending industry related social functions, conferences, and even my neighbors’ cocktail parties help me find new ways of growing my company,” claims Voorheis Gibbons, director of the Hannig Mcclintic Brothers firm, “By asking the right people the right questions, you’ll find that you can learn new things and different strategies for your gaming business operations firm that you may not have thought of before.” “Starting up any gaming business operations business is difficult. In our case, it took about 6 months of planning, a year of fund raising, and then another 6 months of building infrastructure before we made our first sale,” states Spinka Figueras of the Napps Lumbra Partners and Ltd. Company. Without a doubt, planning for the launch of your gaming business operations firm is crucial. Think of it as the launch sequence of a space shuttle. Every last detail, figure, and step is checked and double checked. This is the only way to succeed in the gaming business operations industry and get the competitive edge. Additionaly, fundraising for any gaming business operations business venture can be a daunting task. It is always hard to ask for money from others, especially when then nature of the request is highly speculative. Hollie Huskinson, a highly successful gaming business operations capital management consultant, believes that planning is the key to selling your idea: “If you walk up to someone and say, ‘I’ve got a great gaming business operations business idea, would you contribute $100K’, they’ll probably laugh and consider you a lunatic…but, if you approach someone and say ‘Look, I have this great idea, and my plan is the following…’, it will reassure an anxious investor that things will move forward with thought and purpose.” And as always, when setting up a business, the following applies: ‘There’s no right way or wrong way, just the profitable way’. Once you’ve found out how to get your gaming business operations firm off the ground and it is generating ROI, you’ve won half the battle and are on your way to continued success. Also key to success in the gaming business operations field is logistics. Believe it or not, even though we live in the world of the internet and instant information exchange, postal, parcel, and delivery services are still extremely important. Many gaming business operations proprietors recommend getting a Fedex, UPS, or DHL business account setup right away, so as to avoid comming out-of-pocket for routine mailings and shipments. Secondly, once the business side of a prospective gaming business operations venture is planned, map out the human element. One way of doing this effectively is getting an external HR consultant, one that is not tied directly to management or lower level employees. This allows for impartial scrutiny of your gaming business operations business model and ensures that the right people are doing the right jobs. Carlota Phanord, Human Services director of the Halas Croslin and Partners gaming business operations firm, states that the working dynamic and human capital of your company should not be ignored. Yvonne Binn agrees: “I’ve seen companies with nearly everything - perfect budget, great IT, good distribution - but a terrible working dynamic between the employees. Though the gaming business operations product makes it to store shelves, the people working within the company feel miserable, unappreciated, and unmotivated.”
