Becoming a Football Bookie

To become a football bookie today, your skills need only be a love for football and all things sports (news flash: your customers will be wanting to bet more than just the NFL and college games), and you'll need some marketing skills.  Outside of that, let the Pay Per Head do everything else for you.

Pay Per Head businesses operate similar to outsourcing.  They will provide a customized website for your players, live lines, reports, live in-play betting, prop building, futures and even a live dealer online casino.

When it comes to sports betting, football is still king.

The sports betting market overall in the U.S. is worth over $80.5 billion and will grow to $83.1 billion by 2023.

112 million Americans watch NFL games every week and this year's schedule is slated to feature 272 regular season games! And that's just NFL games.  even College football features 124 team and over 1,400 games to watch this season.

According to the latest statistics, over 45.2 million Americans will bet on football this season.

The PricePerPlayer.com software platform features all of the aformentioned offerings, all for as little as $5 per player per week.

"On average football bookies with only 30-50 players have the potential to make over $2,000 a week in revenue," according to PricePerPlayer.com.  "Since you are only paying $5 or less per player with PricePerPlayer.com, this is a huge profit margin."
