State of Bay Area Chess
Much gratitude for all your understanding and support during our reopening (and “regrowth”) over the last 5 months (especially for your patience with our responsiveness). Frankly, we have been overwhelmed keeping up with the US Chess National Championships, CalChess State Qualifiers, COVID-era overheads, cash flow, and emails. Yes, emails are right up there. We have finally scaled to the demand for our recurring events and are ready for your guidance to channel our
energy:
-
Please tell us what you need Bay Area Chess to do using forms.gle/z36bxmSy3zF54gDd7. (2-3 minutes can help us serve you better
for 2-3 years).
-
Please email me at salman@bayareachess.com if you can help us get out of the email purgatory (with some tools like Zendesk,
ServiceNow, Freshdesk, etc.).
