I also like that this covers all of the book community bases and gives you a sort of launching pad to get yourself started.

This guidebook honestly feels like it should be required reading when starting a new NetGalley account. It explains the NetGalley system to avoid common mistakes when requesting and reviewing on this site. It also gives practical advice on setting up and building a book review account on all the social media platforms, with tips that are specific to each.
Highly highly recommend for all NetGalley users and anyone who runs bookish accounts or blogs.
Thank you for recommending this book, NetGalley. It's a useful resource and I've made use of it already.
I only recently discovered the extra resources available on NetGalley's website which included their "Book Advocate Toolkit." Advertised to help new and experienced reviewers alike, I wanted to see what tips I could glean.
The Toolkit basically takes someone new to NetGalley and walks them through every aspect: setting up a profile, determining membership type, selecting books, checking publisher approval preferences (i.e. knowing what type of reviewer a publisher is most likely to approve). Readers also will learn tips on good reviews (including some do's/don'ts) and how to keep one's review ratio high. The kit also contains links to external articles for additional help on various topics.
More experienced reviewers will find pointers on improving content as well as expanding their social media presence. Readers are introduced to starting accounts for Book Blogging, Bookstagram (IG), Booktubers (YouTube), or Booktok (TikTok).
The next section includes tips for being organized, strategizing, and planning for growth. Also tips on fabulous photos, graphics and hashtags. Lots of really great content to help anyone at any level improve their reviews and online engagement.
The NetGalley Book Advocate Toolkit is truly an all-encompassing resource that offers a treasure trove of suggestions and ideas to help every reviewer succeed. Well done and highly recommended!

Thank you Netgalley and We Are Bookish for gifting me an electronic copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with the tools to write a great review. While I have passively written book reviews in the past, this was the first time that I curated my reviews. I now feel prepared to write reviews for NetGalley books.
This was incredibly helpful as I begin leaving review on Netgalley and publishing these reviews via Goodreads/Bookstagram. I appreciated the platform specific tips, as well as some general guardrails for publishing reviews pre-publication. Thank you!
This has been really helpful in setting up my NetGalley Profile. There have been a few books that I really had wanted to read (and still will!) but was declined either because I don't have enough reviews under my belt or something about my profile didn't click with the publishers. I was able to update my profile with some of the great recommendations which will hopefully allow me to be chosen to review books by some publishers. Thank you #netgalley for providing this copy to me.
