For what it's worth since I'm not a regular here but still buy everything GURPS...

Almost never, I usually go right to the forums and to the Store on Thursday.

Yes, but honestly FB rarely shows your posts and I generally rely on the newsfeed, which is getting increasingly worthless to see things i'm interested in.

* What can we do to put the news in front of you regularly?
Fans posting about the releases on rpg.net and here would alert me most often.

Perhaps adding an opt-in to our Warehouse 23 profile to allow you to send us announcements of new products (not for all publishers, just SJGames...Drivethru bombards me with emails).

If you are Kickstarting your releases, they allow you to send to past backers, I get these all the time and they're rather useful because I only back things I'm interested in.

Game store/distributor system can be a problem. I either have to convince the game store owner that you're still publishing books, or their distributor claims not to carry them. I once heard that GAMA allowed you to access to their game store distribution lists, if that's true, perhaps that could help you reach directly to the game stores?
