I think this is a very helpful beginners guide to someone looking to grow their audience in any social media platform. It is very well structured and gives very good advice that can be used throughout the different platforms. I'm a bookseller and the information looked so easy and accessible that it made me want to become a social media influencer.

Much of what is included in this guide should be common knowledge to anyone who has used social media before, but it's very handy to have all these tips in one place. It's a great starter guide for anyone who is just creating their bookish social media accounts, and it's well worth spending 20 mins scanning through its content. Thank you, NetGalley, for giving us so many great and helpful resources!

Thank you NetGalley for providing the Social Media Handbook. As a book blogger expanding into other platforms slowly but consistently it was really helpful to read about how not to stretch myself out too thin. I'm still a bit wary about the rules and will probably slowly get more confident, especially around the timing of the review -- but this was a solid base to help me get started in my reviewing journey. Thank you and looking forward to reading!

I liked the suggestion of growing a presence as a reviewer on Substack, Pinterest, Threads and Reddit. The general dos and don’ts were very helpful.

If you're new to trying to use social media in a more professional/public manner this is generally pretty helpful advice. A lot of it is pretty well known if you've run any kind of social media before but there were a few arc specific pointers that were handy to know.
