Andrew,
I agree with that. I wasn't meaning to say Chess is like Football. It isn't. It is as you say unique.
And yes it is about the Brand.
With the excellent work you've done on the website it's people like you who may make the difference.
Mind you CS has always had an excellent website in the last 8 years in which I've been interested. I'd have no hesitation in pointing a potential sponsor to the website to find out all about Chess Scotland. And when you consider that it's quite likely that any sponsor would have their name presented on Chess Websites throughout the World as the good news of Chess sponsorship was lauded we potentially have a big reach for a sponsor.
The Brand needs to be established and marketed. It's too big a job for one person or indeed a few perhaps it needs a 'working group' of talented chess supporters working together and encouraging each other?
