Good stuff and good people.

I write fantasy and science fiction and have published a number of titles. I've used BooksGoSocial in several capacities over the past 8 years. Their cover design services are excellent and affordable. I've also used them for ads, consulting, and finding reviewers. The latter included posting my books on NetGalley and joining their (free) groups on Facebook. BGS gives high value for the money, and I can happily recommend them,

I've used other book promotion companies but have always returned to BGS - because they get results. Also, Laurence and staff are approachable and ethical (and not all book marketeers are!). The current 2 month Facebook ads BGS are handling for me are producing ROI, which is the name of the game. Recommended.

Books Go Social is a great company dedicated to the promotion of stories and writers. I've used their services since 2019, and if you go on their website you'll find a video review I posted there. Remember, these are people, not algorithms, they'll work for you, while an algorithm won't.

I’ve used there NetGalley coop for three books and have had success with all of them. My books aren’t written to the market, so the fact that they got any reviewers is a good sign. I haven’t used their other services, so I can’t judge them. I will say that they are an honest company and will try to help your book succeed. Which makes stand out in the self-publishing world.

I have known Lawrence and books go social for several years now. And I have been very pleased with the work he has done and for the efforts he has put out for not only my works, but also others. I find him honest and a hard worker who does exactly what he said he was going to do. I highly recommend him to other authors and publishers, etc. that wish to use his services.

I’ve now used Books Go Social twice to format and launch my Prime Time Travelers series, and I plan to keep coming back. What really sets them apart is the personal, one-on-one approach. I’m admittedly a bit particular about details like icons, chapter headings, and fonts, and the team was fast, patient, and professional throughout the entire process. Beyond formatting, they also refined my blurb, categories, and launch setup, drawing on their deep knowledge of the self-publishing world to help my books reach the widest possible audience. I highly recommend them to any independent author looking for both expertise and genuine support. Neil Laird Emmy and BAFTA-nominated filmmaker and author

I think an auto approval function for Netgalley ARC reviews would be a strong addition. Otherwise a very supportive organisation with good comms.

Hi, I am sorry that someone did this. We can provide a full refund for you. Please email me: [email protected] Thankfully most one star reviews on NetGalley never get seen or end up on Amazon.
