I thought this book was great! So many practical ideas that are easy to understand and implement. A resource that you can turn to again and again.

Excellent book for a business owner who wants to use Instagram in their marketing plan. I ended up buying a copy I liked it so much!

Thank you to NetGalley and Frances Lincoln for an advance copy to review.

Nice that it uses profiles as examples and their experience. Things to consider if using this platform as your main media outlet. A behind the scenes type of look to help you out.

'Instagram Rules' is an amazing book that will not only tell you all the things that you need to know about this social media but also helps you to plan your strategy in order to succeed. The book is full of interesting information and many useful tips. It's great both for beginner users as well as people who have already been using Instagram for some time. I wholeheartedly recommend this book!

If all you are interested in is building an Instagram presence for your business, then this book has tips for you. However, the approach is not the most honest and it doesn't focus on a slow natural growth, but on tactics like "follow accounts and unfollow if they don't follow you back" (paraphrasing, but that's the idea).

I also don't think there was a clear distinction over who the main target audience is - is it just businesses, is it influencers? Sometimes you knew, sometimes you didn't.

It's not necessarily a bad book, I just do not think this is the kind of content or social media mentality we want going forward. I think authenticity should be more important than posting 5 days a week, preferably at 3 pm because that's when you'll get the most likes.

I enjoyed some of the interviews of other people using the platform, because they did not seem as focused on numbers and on forcing engagement, and more on connecting with their audience.

Or maybe it's me, maybe I am just naive thinking we all want authenticity...

As an author, this book is a perfect way to improve my Instagram game. It’s insightful and adds so many new tools to my social media toolbox!

I found this book extremely helpful and informative. As someone who is okay with using Instagram, this was beneficial to me. Are you interested in ways to amplify your Instagram experience? Check out this book!

This book contained tips and tricks on using Instagram for your brand. No matter what you know about Instagram or if you're like me and want to know more, this book can provide an insight into that world.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me a copy and the opportunity to read this in exchange for an honest review.

I really enjoyed this easy to consume guide. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to get started on Instagram and needs to learn about all the features and even to those that already use it and want to improve their presence.

I've personally been on Instagram for years, so I already knew some of the tips given in this book, but I still got to learn a lot about other aspects of the app and my presence on it that I didn't know. I'll definitely refer to this guide in the future as I try to better my Instagram profiles.

I particularly liked the structure of the book, how fun each section was, the graphics and the design of each page and the "case studies" included at the end of each chapter.

This is a good step by step book which would be very helpful to brand new entrepreneurs who want to get their business started or to the bigger businesses who want to make their businesses appeal to more people by going online in this increasingly digitalized world. If you work in business and/or social media this book is the perfect book for you!

Great primer on Instagram, both for the total newbie to social media marketing as well as someone who's just new to Instagram. Great tips and tricks.

This is a really useful guide for how to create your own brand and build upon it. Unfortunately netgalley archived it even though I was still using it yesterday on netgalley shelf so I did not get to finish it.

I really liked this book and it helped me with my Instagramaccount. It has a lot of interesting information and i liked the way this book was organised.
I would recommend this to everyone who is interested in Instagram and branding.

I apologize for the late review!

This was interresting and I learned some from it but it feels like all this information is already on Internet if you google just a minute.

Great book, which is perfect for a beginner like me to Instagram, really useful tips and advice. Especially useful if you had an online business to promote.

Thank you NetGalley for my complimentary copy in return for my honest review.

This book has lots of details on how to have a strategy goal, theme, frequency with which to post, how to engage with customers. Many interviews with other companies on how they approach using Instagram. Good resource which probably could be used for any social media engagement.

Some great insight into instagram! Loved the layout of this book and tons of great topics covered, including strategy, goal planning, and branding.

Also had a couple of case study with businesses (like Ben and Jerry's!) who use their Instagrams to connect with fans and who have a great following, chatting with them about how they got to where they are and things they find important to do on instagram.

Definitely recommend for anyone new to instagram or looking to build their following and brand.

It's a great book about Instagram for the very beginners. If you're just starting this book will be good for you but if you have been on the platform for the past year there's no much new information. I received a free digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

Great beginner's guide to Instagram as a new business or influencer.

I really liked reading this one! It was super informative, and I was constantly taking notes. I definitely learned a lot. Would totally recommend if you want to step up your Insta game!

Big thank you to Netgalley + White Lion Publishing for sending me an ARC of this book!

An informative book for anyone wanting to promote their work/brand on Instagram with examples from successful Instagrammers. It’s something one would dip into often. The cover is simple yet bright and appealing and the layout within the book is both colourful and readable.

This is a great book for beginners or someone who is starting to expand their brand onto social media. It lays out everything you need to get started and though some of the concepts seem very basic, they are very necessary for laying a solid foundation. The strategies, tips and tricks outlined are very accurate and I believe if someone followed this guide, they could have a very successful social media brand.

As a social media consultant for small businesses, I would recommend this book to anyone starting out and I will actually recommend it to a few of my clients. Everything in this book is what I work on with them and it would be nice for them to have this to reference and follow.
