You will need a top-of-the-line Pay Per Head to manage everything from live lines to 24-7 customer service to reporting.
Some marketing skills that should employ social media.

Currently, Illinois regulated sportsbooks are prohibited from taking bets on in-state schools and games that feature them.
State teams such as the Fighting Illini, Wildcats and Ramblers have enjoyed success of late in college basketball.
While lawmakers are trying to push legislation that allows for bets on in-state teams, action can only be taken in-person had designated retail locations such as casinos and potentially arenas. Mobile sites will be prohibited from doing so.
In-person registration is required to open an online sports betting account with a state regulated site at this time.
One can offer more enticing lines on Illinois teams.
Online poker and casinos not available on the in-state apps but they ARE using a top-of-the-line Pay Per Head.
