Product announcements and press releases?


Customer Service


I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but here goes.

I'm a PDF publisher, and I have recently started selling my products at the Paizo store. Is there a place set aside for publishers to post press releases or new product announcements?

Thanks

That's an excellent question, which I don't think anybody has asked before. We don't currently have such an area, but we'll talk about it.

In the meantime, feel free to tell people about your products in the D&D/d20/OGL forum!

OK, gotta chime in - anyone out there in Paizo-land that doesn't know Blackdirge and his products should ashamed!

I was a pretty hard core WotC-only kind of player/DM until I started picking up some PDFs from great small publishers. But I must say Mr. Rudel's stuff was the first I actually used!

His mechanics are the best in industry and his imagination is the doom of all players!

Hey, thanks, man! I really appreciate that.

At the suggestion of Mr. Wertz I've started a thread over in the d20/OGL forum, here. So head on over there and say hello. =]

You're the man to write some reviews for that stuff, DF!!!


Here's another question.

Since there is currently no official place to post new product announcements, is it kosher for a publisher to start a thread on a new product on the product discussion board? Or is that generally frowned upon? Or would it be okay to announce new products in the d20/OGL section?

However, I don't want to inundate either board with ad copy, since that's not the purpose of either forum. Any suggestions?

I'd suggest using the "start a discussion" link under the product in question. So long as your posts are generally more informational than advertising, I don't think anyone will have problems.

Cool. That's what I'll do.

I hope Paizo seriously considers a press release forum; I think it would be beneficial to everyone.
