Being brand new to NetGalley, this toolkit was much appreciated! It provides a good high-level overview of what users need to know to get started with reviews.

This toolkit from Netgalley is a concise and helpful resource for newbies and seasoned book reviewers. It starts with the basics, guiding you through setting up your profile and navigating the platform. This information is beneficial for those unfamiliar with NetGalley's interface. The toolkit touches on writing reviews, but newbies may find it does not provide a lot of depth. I found the pointers on maximizing your reach by utilizing different platforms and recommended hashtags most helpful—a welcome addition to any reviewer's tools.

Dieser kleine Guide ist wirklich sehr hilfreich. Und das nicht nur im Bezug auf das Rezensionschreiben für Hörbücher und Bücher, sondern auch fürs Bloggen, plotten von Kontent und dem Aufbau SocialMedia Accounts. Dabei wird sich nicht nur drauf bezogen, was mann definitiv und unbedingt machen sollte, sondern auch was man definitiv vermeiden sollte.

Gut finde auch sehr gut, dass eine große Bandbreite an Socialmedia Plattformen vorgestellt werden mit Beschreibungen für wen sich was eignet.

Dieser Guide eigenet sich meiner Meinung nach vor allem für die, die mit Netgalley gerade starten und sich eine SocialMedia Account rund um Bücher und Rezensionen aufbauen wollen. Dafür ist es wirklich empfehlenswert.

This was a fantastic and user friendly overview that will help you get started on NetGalley. After revving some denials, I grabbed this to get scoop on what I needed for my profile. This walked me through the mechanics in a digestible and visually appealing way. I'd highly suggest every user read this!

Excellent introduction to NetGalley - a bit cartoonish for my tastes, but the content is complete, upbeat, and informative. I was particularly interested in how to recover a tanked ratio...working on that now, although I have now reviewed a few books that I shelved under "no feedback" long ago and my ratio hasn't budged. I don't know why that is - perhaps ones that are too old are not considered reviewable. No matter, I'm going to go through that list. The toolkit is very much worth a read.
