Does DraftKings’ customer surcharge plan constitute an abuse of power?

Published

on

 

“DraftKings passing on the surcharge to its customers feels like an abuse of power in markets where customers are not always spoiled for choice,” said Neil Roarty, head of North American publishing at ClickOut Media. 

“Regulation of sports betting was supposed to provide more customer protection. However, if the brand with the highest market share can just whack a charge on players because it doesn’t want to pay more in taxes, then the whole concept of legal sports betting becomes questionable. 

“Would this happen in any other industry? A market leader should not be able to hike up prices with customers having no option but to pay it. Another option of course is that they simply choose to play elsewhere.”

The digital age has unlocked a wealth of possibilities for Human Resources (HR), transforming traditional workflows into dynamic, global opportunities. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and advanced computer technologies are no longer just enablers, they have become the go-to tools in transforming recruitment and workplace management while adhering to the creative potential of industries like marketing.

For multi-channel marketing firms like ClickOut Media, renowned for crafting stories that connect people and brands, the question is no longer if these tools can be transformative but rather how they can be used efficiently to spark innovation, enhance collaboration, and expand the global reach of their campaigns.

AI in HR
AI has revolutionised the ‘first steps’ in recruitment, from applicant sourcing to CV screening, face-to-face interviews, and beyond. Using AI tools to carry out these processes has created a more streamlined workflow, resulting in diverse and inclusive teams. For creative industries such as digital marketing, this diversity brings invaluable perspectives from various individuals that can enrich campaigns and strategies.

ClickOut Media thrives on team collaboration, and when AI is paired with the company’s ethos of encouraging charismatic and connected teams, the result is not just to foster efficiency but to invite synergy, too. It is the blend of streamlined workflow and human insight that enhances the personalisation that is critical to their storytelling success.

This raises the question: could AI increase workplace efficiency while improving human relationships and marketing campaigns?

Video platforms like Google Meet, Zoom, and Teams have redefined collaboration, allowing firms to transcend geographical barriers and build partnerships across time zones.

In addition to facilitating seamless communication, AI-powered notetakers and transcription tools add another layer of efficiency to remote teamwork. By streamlining workflows and reducing manual tasks, AI not only enhances collaboration but also drives productivity across global teams.

By championing the power of AI and digital tools, ClickOut Media’s commitment has enabled the company to build and sustain a robust, fully remote workforce featuring account managers, technical leads, and marketing leads.

As a digital marketing agency that is deeply rooted in data and technology, the company has consistently excelled in its field. With years of experience and unwavering aid provided at every step—regardless of whether employees are working in an office environment—this level of support would not be possible without the use of AI.

Moreover, ClickOut Media doesn’t stop using technology to optimise workflow, it leverages these tools to embrace multicultural perspectives, ensuring campaigns resonate with diverse audiences. By integrating AI into HR practices, the company is expanding its reach while redefining global engagement and creativity standards.

Finding the perfect balance
The real challenge of AI lies not in its adoption but in its integration, navigating a way for companies to harness digitalisation tools without losing the human essence that drives personal connections and evokes out-of-the-box media strategies.

At ClickOut Media, the answer lies in finding the perfect balance. By using AI for menial tasks, like scheduling interviews or managing leave requests, HR teams can focus on what truly matters – building authentic team relationships and cultivating an environment where imagination thrives.

This approach doesn’t replace human interaction, it amplifies it and enables a company to maintain its collaborative spirit while embracing innovation, creating a workplace where employees feel connected and valued and clients experience campaigns that resonate well.

Is AI the future?
As AI reshapes the workplace, the focus shifts to the possibilities unlocked by deliberate and thoughtful tool integration. ClickOut Media is paving the way for a future where technology and humanity coexist seamlessly, and AI is steadfastly being used to empower creativity and inspire new ideas across the globe.

The future isn’t about how to adopt technology, it is about mastering its potential to transform challenges into opportunities, and ideas into impact.
