Evan Rabin Finds a New Use For Chess

By Marty Katz, Founder of Connectors 360

Evan Rabin, is the Founder of Premier Chess, which teaches chess to professionals as well as families.

His problem: during the doldrums of the pandemic and recession, his sales were flat. Not many people were interested in this diversion.

He met Marty Katz, Founder of Connectors 360. Marty is a marketing consultant and specializes in brand messaging.

Marty suggested that instead of framing his business strictly as a place to learn or play chess, Evan should address business leaders to show them that chess has a role that could benefit them:

Business leaders have many employees who are reluctant to try new things. They are afraid of being judged by their managers and colleagues if their ideas aren’t successful. This makes innovation –- the lifeblood of growth – the responsibility of only a few top-level execs.

Knowing this,  Evan positioned chess as a way for people to learn how to develop strategies, manage risk and generate creativity in their approach to solving problems and finding new opportunities. Managers and employees would all benefit.

Evan began communicating this new use of chess and its value to business leaders. They saw how chess could improve their employees’ performance and signed up for his programs.

Out of a low point, Evan found his own innovation to get the outcomes he wanted.

  1. While reading a tech blog, I noticed a section on mobile optimization and tapped plinko game online. In Malaysia, I value games that run smoothly on any device, and this one loaded instantly on my tablet. The touch controls were responsive, letting me fine-tune drop angles with a swipe. My roommate tested it on his phone and confirmed the experience was just as fluid. We’ve been dropping balls side by side during our breaks ever since.

  2. The UK has a rich history in entertainment and modern online platforms. Here, users actively choose services that combine simplicity and high quality. Betfred Cаsіno is one such example that fits harmoniously into the market. It is appreciated for its convenient functionality and stability. This makes the platform more and more popular among the British audience.
