It was easy to read. Had great information. I found it to be very informative. Great help. Some information I had no idea it even existed. Great idea.
Excellent, practical advice that sets a reader with Net Galley up for success! A concise and yet information packed read makes it well worth anyone's time
This is a handy toolkit for anyone wanting to increase his or her online book promotion. Although it contains many suggestions and is helpful overall, it seems to assume a familiarity with social media platforms greater than I possess. Much of that is due to age, I'm sure. For example, I'm not an Instagram user and could benefit from more basic instructions. Of course, I could ask my grandkids!
These are especially helpful tips for freshening up reviews if you've gotten stuck in a rut. We are Bookish consolidates many of their online tips into one useful volume. As an older reviewer, I particularly appreciated the sections on Bookstagram, Booktube, and Booktok. It has broadened my ability to get my reviews more visibility. Its graphics are easy to read and follow. I really enjoyed it.
Very useful toolkit! Thank you! Even though I have been reviewing for awhile, I learned several new things. I will definitely recommend this to other reviewers.
As a Newbie to NetGalley, this is really helpful! Super easy to understand and great links to intensify certain subjects.
I wish Netgalley was more transparent about what exactly a publisher sees when deciding to approve a reviewer.
This is a great guide with sensible tips for a beginner.
This is a great resource to help out fellow book reviewers to write their reviews. It gives examples of where to post their reviews, from Facebook to Instagram, Twitter, TikTok and Youtube as if you want to be a blogger or have your reviews on Goodreads. I would recommend this for everyone on here to at least look at and to help them review the different books on here.
A big thanks to We Are Bookish and NetGalley for this excellent source for those who are not only new to NetGalley, but new to book reviewing on social media as well! This toolkit provides easy to read and implement suggestions and ideas to make your book reviewing a breeze. I particularly liked the section on how to build social media, like Instagram, and the best places to create a blog. This information is particularly useful to someone like me who has been reviewing books informally on a smaller platform and is taking the leap to more advanced reviewing and audience engagement. I have this toolkit saved to my laptop for easy access to refer to when I make my #MeetTheBookstagramer post and look into creating an Auntie Yorga Reads book review blog!
NetGalley's Book Advocate Toolkit published by We Are Bookish is a must have if you're reading ARCs and writing reviews for NetGalley. This handy little ebook gives you all the tricks and tips for setting up your profile, your bio and how to review both ebooks and audiobooks. It is well organized and easy to follow. I wish I had this guide when I first started with NetGalley over 2 years ago. It would have eased my anxiety in wanting to submit reviews properly.
Give it a go and you'll see for yourself just how helpful this toolkit can be!
My thanks to #NetGalley and to We Are Bookish for this ARC. This opinion/review is my own.
Wow!!!! Such a great resource for how to use NetGalley to its maximum potential! Loved the layout and easy to follow guidance! Will be using this more often to help me enhance my profile
Great information that clarifies some blogging do's and don'ts in an easy to digest format similar to an infographic for each section.
Thanks We Are Bookish and Netgally for putting this guide together.
This was a very interactive way of creating a profile for social media outlets to review books for NetGalley. It also gave good tips as to what to do to market yourself as a reviewer in these platforms.
A very useful tool for everyone using Netgalley. I would love to use each of these brilliant techniques when I post!
Excellent primer on how Netgalley works! I've been using the site since 2015 but it never hurts to brush up on things!
Very handy toolkit!
Information how to review for every platform that is ' hot' today including Tiktok and Bookstagram. Enjoyed reading it and will sure try to incorporate it in my reviews.
Well organized and easy to read. I hope to incorporate some of these tips and advice into my future reviews and my profile.
Thank you to Netgalley for providing this resource!
This was an amazing read. It was really well put together and the information was laid out in a thoughtful, yet easy to understand way. Relatively new to traditional book reviews, I found this resource incredibly helpful. It gave me a lot of good ideas on how to transform my Bookstagram, how to get started on my blog, and how to create graphics to use on social media and sites such as GoodReads.
I’m definitely going to refer back to this in order to make sure that I continue to have a profile that will help publishers understand who I am as a reader, and how I can help advertise their books.
I found this book really helpful. I just recently joined NetGalley and I was unsure of how things worked in this web. After reading NetGalley´s Book Advocate Toolkit I feel more knowledgeable about the website. I also learnt more about how to request, read, and share a review about a book using all the available tools.
This is honestly one of the most helpful toolkits EVER for beginning bookbloggers/netgalley users!
From the creation of your netgalley account, this toolkit breaks down exactly how to get started with easy to understand steps.
Really great info included on the type of netgalley users and what specific information to include in your bio for the best odds of getting approved for DRCs!
It goes further, however, and provides really useful and great tips that you can implement today. One thing I did not know that I learned is that you have to include how you got the book, thanking or acknowledging netgalley and the publisher- I've seen others do this before but did not know it was a requirement!
Amazing tips for planning and information for each specific venue you may choose to post your book content on! I'm excited to use the tips I got from this toolkit and to save it to reference in the future!
