GPWA Times Magazine - Issue 40- February 2018

What do you think the industry will look like in five years? I believe we will see more regulation in various areas. I can also see more operator and affiliate mergers and acquisitions. What do your family and friends think of your work as an affiliate? My friends and family think it’s a very interesting and different way of making a living, even if some of them don’t un- derstand it fully. My family in the U.K. is happy because I can spend more time with them, and my family in Greece is extremely happy because now I can visit them more often and for longer periods. How do you manage your to-do lists? Do you use any special soft- ware to help you out? I prefer to write down my to-do list in the morning and go through it during the day. I also use Trello, but mainly to keep track of free- lancers’ tasks. How much time do you devote so- cial networking for your site? Not much time, mainly because I don’t have a lot of spare time and I prioritize other tasks. I am trying to automate or delegate a lot of social stuff. What’s the most difficult thing about running your site? Too many tasks, too little time in the day. Also competition is very high, and SEO is becoming harder, PPC more expensive and social media marketing more demanding. What’s the best thing about running your site? The enjoyment that I get when I hit my targets and when I see that the things that I am doing are working the way I have planned. What do you do to stay in shape – both physically and mentally? Not much, to be honest, but I really want to do more. I go through stages of going to the gym and doing some yoga, but then other things take over and I am back to doing nothing for months. What do you do with your spare time? Watching football, going out and playing with my daughter. What did you dream of doing, both professionally and personally, when you were a kid? When I was a kid I wanted to become a professional footbal- ler, but I never even attempted that! It was only a dream. I also wanted to travel all around the world and see different coun- tries. I guess I still have time to achieve that dream. If someone from out of town were visiting you, what’s the one place you’d definitely take them to see? If he or she was a football fan, then defi- nitely go watch Man City or Man United. If they like nature and landscapes, then the Peak district and Lake district are great places to visit. When you need to get as far away fromwork as possible, where do you go? Greece! Especially in the summer. What’s your all-time favorite movie? Fight Club. If you could invite any five people, living or dead, to dinner, who would they be? I want to say my grandparents from both sides, but it will be unfair for my parents not to be there as well. So I will go for a bit of a mixture of great per- sonalities: Wayne Dyer, Bob Marley, Jose Mujica, Socrates and Sotiris Moustakas. Name three things that people reading this magazine don’t know about you. 1. I am Greek. 2. I am an AEK Athens fan. 3. I don’t eat meat. about A little bit more Yannis His sites are bestuklivecasinos.co.uk slotslounge.co.uk froutakiaonline.gr His favorite food is yemista (a traditional Greek dish) His favorite book is The Power of Your Subconscious Mind , by Joseph Murphy He is 37 years old He is living in Manchester, England, U.K. Yannis | Mr Live Casinos His hometown is Athens, Greece Athens photo by Sven Hansche/Shutterstock, Manchester photo by Shahid Khan/Shutterstock, yemista photo by hlphoto/Shutterstock 63 W W W .
