What a helpful tool for someone like me who is just starting out.

It provides you with plenty of information without overwhelming you. The use of links really added extra depth to the guidance.

Definitely one that I’m going to be referring back to regularly.

Wow! That was just perfect.

This guide covers everything you need to know about getting started with Netgalley, writing reviews, and the dos and don'ts of social media. The content is very well organised. What I liked was that it was presented in a very cute yet minimalist graphic and organised into bullet points or straight to the point. The cool thing is that for each section, there's always a link to a Netgalley blog article that goes into more detail. So if you need more information on certain topics, you can dive in there.
One other thing worth noting: I really enjoyed reading this guide as a PDF on my smartphone, thanks to its easy-to-read formatting (the text never gets too small!) and its brevity (32 pages). It was the first time I had enjoyed reading something on the Netgalley app or on my smartphone.
Thank you, Netgalley, for writing such a useful and practical guide to getting started with your platform. I was especially grateful to learn more about social etiquette, as the information I found online was often a bit contradictory. For example, I didn't know that I could tag the publisher in negative reviews. I was always afraid to do that.
Highly recommended for any Netgalley user, from the newbie to those who get caught up in the requests and end up overwhelmed with ARCs to review.

As a new bookstagrammer, and as one who wants to start using NetGalley on a regular basis, this booklet was extremely helpful. The advice given was amplified with useful links to additional information. The simple, easy-to-read format was also appreciated, so I could learn useful tips quickly and easily.

The NetGalley's book advocate tool kit is packed with tips to help you succeed! It is very convenient and concise. I appreciate the links for further details on the subject matter. I don't currently post to the social media platforms but in the future if I decide to I will definitely utilize this book's tips in those areas to successfully navigate the process. Thank you for this helpful information for beginners like me.

The Booktube/BookTok section in this toolkit is probably going to be the most helpful to me because I really would like to get into those sort of reviews.

The social media section as well was helpful as honestly, social media is hard to figure out on its own - let along social media with a purpose!

It also made me think that I may want to start my own separate blog to track my reading adventures, something that I've been thinking about for a while but never had a true reason to. Perhaps now I do...

I will definitely keep this book at hand for the various tips and tricks that are within the pages.

The book advocate toolkit offered valuable advice about where and how to review books. I will be continuously returning to this toolkit for reference information.

I was pleased with how thorough this book describes different topics from writing a review to posting on social media. The tips are short and sweet with links that expand on the information. If you are someone that wants to review ARCs, start a booktok, or even a blog I highly recommend this book.

Wonderful introduction to NetGalley and I will refer to it often. Clear and to the point. So glad to have this resource.

Thank you for having this useful guide to help people become a better netgalley reviewer. I hope to be better about reading books near the publishing date and reviewing books as I read them.

Great resource for anyone starting a bookstagram or blog reviewing book. Outline a good strategy and key advice for anyone starting out. Interesting for established bloggers and bookstagrammers - there are little things you forget in time. Definitely a pdf to reference back to.

This is a very comprehensive guide to making sure feedback ratios are high with NetGalley so that reviewers continue getting approvals, which I really appreciate. I also appreciate the info on bookish social media and strategizing.

This is a very helpful tool that I have referred back to a few times since downloading. The information on various platforms, content ideas and other material is helpful for those just getting started in reviewing or looking to streamline their processes.

Although I am not new to reviewing books, I am new to the NetGalley platform. And as a recovering perfectionist, I wanted to get started on the right foot. NetGalley’s Book Advocate Toolkit provided the perfect opportunity to begin learning some of the in’s and out’s of taking my reviewing, and book advocacy, to the next level.

This Toolkit was helpful in learning what should be included in my reviewer profile, as well as for tips on writing excellent book reviews and sharing them on social media. I thought the content planning tips were very helpful, as well as the overview of additional platforms for potentially reviewing books.

I believe anyone new to NetGalley, or who feels like they want to up their review game would benefit from the Toolkit. As a brand new member of NetGalley I found this Toolkit to be particularly helpful. What could have been hours worth of Googling, was distilled into a quick, but thorough guide that both provides enough information to get started, and a jumping off point for more seasoned book advocates to continue further research.

I recommend that all new members of NetGalley download this guide first thing, BEFORE beginning to browse for books to request! This guide will not only help up your game, but help you avoid some of the pitfalls that commonly beset new members!

Cuteeee - definitely a nice thing. Thanks for giving this to us! I'm definitley going to be using the templates and ideas listed in here
