This was pretty basic information if you have worked in social media, but for the social media novice it is good.

Helpful for those that are just starting out and making decisions about what platforms they want to use. For those that are already in the game but looking to grow the audience, there is not as much info.

Very cool way to share some useful info, I'm sure many others will appreciate is as much as I do. The rendering of all the graphics was a bit weird so I recommend flattening the designs in the future :)

Thank you for sharing your Social Media Handbook! I really appreciate the easy to follow format and all the ideas that will work on multiple platforms. The graphics added the right amount of spark to the handbook. I hope lots of people read this and utilize your tips.

Easily laid out tips to improve skills at giving reviews. It is helpful for multiple social media platforms. There’s also references for tools to improve aesthetics. The guidance on what’s more appropriate for reviews is great as the goal for me is to share honest feedback to anyone genuinely interested in the books I’ve read.

Loved this resource! It was really helpful for me as a new netgalley user to have such a nice guide given that i can totally see myself coming back to later on

This was a handy guide to social media that was thorough, but right to the point. I enjoyed looking through it to see how I can improve on social media.

This was a handy and well presented little reference guide for reviewing on social media, definitely useful as I try and get into Bookstagramming.

I personally struggle writing reviews and managing social media accounts so this handbook was very helpful for me! I appreciate the breakdown of different platforms and how to approach each of them--there isn't one method that fits everything and this handbook understands that.

This toolkit has a lot of invaluable, easy-to-digest advice about social media. A lot of the tips I can use immediately and because I really only have experience with Instagram, the glimpses into other platforms is very informative. It inspires me to broaden my horizons into other platforms like TikTok and X.
I like the links to more resources and the format. I also enjoy the etiquette tips so I feel more secure in that I am handling my Bookstagram appropriately.
Thank you NetGalley for the useful tool in the Social Media Handbook!

This handbook was very helpful. I learned alot about what to do to improve my reviews. I plan to reference back to it as I continue on my review journey. Thanks!

This is a great guide for reviewers on social media and other professionals! It goes over strategies for different social media platforms, which is very helpful for reviewers getting started and figuring out which platform is best for them.

This was a really helpful overview of what to include in reviews.
I especially found it helpful that there was guidance by platform and it helped to highlight the differences between social media platforms and review sites.
I utilised the information about posting reviews of Net Galley ARCS in accordance with Instagram rules.
Overall this was a really helpful guide, pitched at a low-entry point but with loads of information and tips. Really appreciated it!

This is so helpful! I love that it included tips for Canva. Differentiating best practices by platform is invaluable. Thanks!

This is a really useful, easy to follow guide for all social media platforms. Some of this I had learnt already, but there are some valuable tips in here that I'm going to start implementing too.
The tips are succinct and easily digestible set out in a clear and concise way.
Thank you NetGalley and WeAreBookish for this great guide

I liked making my way through this. Lots of tips and tricks to make your social media journey one to enjoy. There were new to me examples and behaviours that I already employ.

I found this guide super helpful and informative! I especially appreciated how easy it was to follow and the beautiful graphics used.

This short handbook is surprisingly informative! I appreciated how it’s structured to cover all social media platforms and how they can be connected. It serves as an excellent jumping-off point, providing practical ideas and examples to help you get started. With its engaging graphics throughout, this book makes for a fun read. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to build their own social media following.

NetGalley’s Social Media Handbook is a concise and incredibly useful resource for anyone looking to start or grow a book-focused social media account. This guide covers all the major social platforms, as well as traditional channels like blogs, offering a well-rounded overview of how to make the most of each. I loved the creative layout—it was easy to read, visually engaging, and made key information quick to find.
It also had links to additional resources for deeper insights, which is great for readers who want to explore specific areas further. It even included some tips and tricks I hadn’t come across before, making it valuable for both beginners and those looking to refine their strategy. I’d call this the ultimate guide to starting a bookish account, and I highly recommend it to anyone in the book community. NetGalley did a fantastic job with this one!

This was a great little guide with lots of tips and tricks that I haven't thought about. Super helpful for someone who is just getting starting with a new social media account. The breakdowns made it seem super easy to get started and strategize on each platform. The graphics were great and creative!
