We kick off with some burbling from Fintan Costello and Jon Bruford [0:00 – 7:57] before we meet our guest, Dabble’s Jon Robin, executive director and co-founder.
Dabble is a sports betting platform that merges traditional wagering with community engagement. We explore the journey of Dabble from its inception, the challenges of building a platform, the importance of user feedback, and the strategic decision to expand into the US market. Jon shares insights on the affiliate marketing background that led to the creation of Dabble, the lessons learned during the development process, and the significance of community in shaping the platform's features and user experience. We discuss their international expansion strategy, particularly into the US and UK markets, the challenges and opportunities in launching a daily fantasy sports product, the importance of community features, and the competitive landscape. Jon emphasizes the significance of building a differentiated sportsbook experience and navigating regulatory challenges while remaining optimistic about the potential for growth in the UK market [07:58 – 1:15:33].
Fintan really nerds out in this one.
