I'm getting back into doing reviews and wanted to start up my social accounts again. The last time I felt overwhelmed. This handbook was really helpful in organizing my thoughts and what direction I should start. Filled with actionable tips for all platforms, I'm starting to think about doing a YouTube channel as well. As the handbook mentioned, I'm going to start slow with TikTok and Instagram. I'm excited to update my bios and start posting again!

Thank you NetGalley.

A fantastic resource for those new to the bookish communities on social media, NetGalley’s Social Media Handbook provided plenty of hints and tips to get started. From how to write reviews to a Canva 101 introduction, the help would have definitely been useful when I first got my accounts underway. It wasn’t, however, for those that have been on the platforms for any significant length of time. Either way, it was a quick, easy read at just 35 pages, which I recommend to all new users of NetGalley who are interested in joining one of the book lovers’ social media realms. Rating of 4 stars.

The Story
This covered book review basics and essentials for the NetGalley platform.

I realized there actually are a few quirks in my submissions I have been inadvertently adding that I hadn’t realized I have been doing.

It was insightful to understand the #HashtagTips and how they are utilized within the NetGalley system.

The Writing
It’s short, sweet, and very accessible in how it is presented with a soft lavender, pastel powder blue, and sage-toned green NetGalley branding that was complete with “Do” and “Don’t” comparison lists.

There are also additional clickable hyperlinked tips and accompanying graphics that were easy to read through and absorb the instructional messages in an organized, professional manner.

Felt like a nice, simple reminder and a morale booster, cheerleading us to success, for the reading community niche that we are all a part of.

I have been waiting for this social media guide and so glad it's here. I've been a reviewer for a while now and while I do share reviews on social media sites, I feel like I'm stumbling around and not showcasing the review correctly or using the right hashtags to gain more attention to posts.

I like the detailed explanations on everything and am glad you included a link to social media etiquette.

The handbook is easy to use and very helpful!

I highly recommend this for any new or seasoned reviewer!

Thank you NetGalley for the handbook!
