Eager to hear more about this as it progresses, I think it sounds really awesome.

Maybe you can work with us if this starts to get rolling. I'm looking to build a team of maybe 4 people to organize the larger-reaching, structural aspects of the changes we are hoping to bring. Sounds like you are simpatico with a lot of what this is about.

I would be more than pleased to help in any way I could be useful!

 The promotion is it's own little box of events and influences. It's part of a larger care system for the already existing female fight scene in the city. Sponsors, or ideally "a" sponsor, would be investing in that system, that community, as a mode of branding. It has a "can't fail" aspect, especially since the buy-in would be so low. 

Does the building of profiles and online material (training, fight and interview videos) play a role in Thailand as much as internationally?  You all have the best test case of course.  I am wondering if more studies of young female fighters would build excitement the same way (I know Sylvie has profiled many fighters and your "Great 8" is a perfect educational tool for me as a Western fan; just curious how it works there).

I think what is really required is a kind of journalistic attention to the fighters and the community. This is part of where we are headed.

You’re not inviting me & I’m not looking for an invite but I’d like very much to follow along, help if I can as an auxiliary outsider

The stronger the army! The team I'm looking to build is specifically people in Thailand. There are things I really want to do here, in this space. Maybe 4 people strong. But the more ancillary support the better to be sure.
