Summary

When Bernard Pomeroy finds a letter slipped under his door in the early hours, he flies into a panic。 After dashing off a short note to his friend, he hands it to the porter at Corpus Christi College before hastening on to the railway station and boarding a train leaving Cambridge。 However, shortly after disembarking at his destination, the undergraduate lies dead on the platform。



Inspector Colbeck and Sergeant Leeming are summoned by the Master of the college to investigate Pomeroy's untimely demise。 With the Boat Race on the horizon, the president of the Cambridge Boat Club believes their Oxford rivals responsible for the death of their cox, who had been heralded in the press for his talent。 Yet it seems Pomeroy had ruffled many feathers during his short time at the university。

With academic disputes, sporting rivalry and a clandestine romance in play, the Railway Detective will have to disentangle the many threads of Pomeroy's life in order to answer the truth about his death。

A great, practical overview。 Though I don't necessarily want to become an influencer myself, this was a fascinating read with learnings I'll definitely apply to my own online presence moving forward。 I especially enjoyed the section about pricing - I wish I'd read it years ago!

Great AdviceBudding Tick Tock star? YouTube maven wanna be? This book is for you。 The business of being an influencer is laid out in a straightforward way by a talented and experienced author。 You will get practical and aspirational advice, as well as great tips and tricks。 A must read。

It is a good book but I think it’s written keeping in mind who already have a background in social media with good amount of followers。 If you think this book will give you some tips and tricks and advices on how to become influential on social media then I feel this book doesn’t go deep enough in this aspect。 The writer mostly talk about already established people on social media and how they must handle their interactions with other people, their audience and brand deals。

Yeesh, where to start? Undoubtedly, Hennessy is skilled in her field and has boatloads of knowledge on influencer marketing, working with agents, contracts, and everything else in this developing field。If you are looking for a "how to" on navigating the influencer industry, there's no doubt you'll find plenty of decent starter tips in this book。 In particular, certain sections titled "don't be THAT girl" recall horror stories of negative experiences。 These are good reminders to do simple things Yeesh, where to start? Undoubtedly, Hennessy is skilled in her field and has boatloads of knowledge on influencer marketing, working with agents, contracts, and everything else in this developing field。If you are looking for a "how to" on navigating the influencer industry, there's no doubt you'll find plenty of decent starter tips in this book。 In particular, certain sections titled "don't be THAT girl" recall horror stories of negative experiences。 These are good reminders to do simple things like check your email often, and don't be a brat。The biggest downfall of the book is maybe not a downfall to some, but it's a narrow audience。 Not only is the field of marketing influencers rather new, but this book skims the surface。 For one, Hennesy remarks early on that the book is applicable to both men and women, but the book is clearly written with women in mind。 This is fine and helpful, but it's not what she claimed。Second, while the book claims to be intended for all in the influencer field, it's clearly marketed specifically to Instagram influencers。 While it appears that's where most of the money lies, it's still narrow, hardly addressing the pitfalls of YouTube, or other social media influencers。Now, if you are a woman--and you work mostly in Instagram--this is probably the book for you。 Unfortunately, even if you aren't either of these things, you might still listen to the audiobook and be put off by the author's bland and uninspired narration。 In some cases, it might be better to hire a professional voice actor, and this is a great example of a time to do so。 。。。more

A lot of useful tips on how to be an influencer and work with brands, not necessarily how to get there or create a must-follow feed but anyhow I will remember about this book and for sure get back to it。 Brittany even shares templates of e-mails, a very detailed guide!

I started this book because I wanted to up my social media marketing game at work, and while early chapters had some solid advice, my biggest takeaway was for my personal social media platforms。 The ideas are very accessible and worked for various stages with a heavier emphasis on steps to take once you have an influencer level of followers。 I especially appreciated the sections on how different types of content can work together。5 stars because it successfully made me want to start a YouTube vl I started this book because I wanted to up my social media marketing game at work, and while early chapters had some solid advice, my biggest takeaway was for my personal social media platforms。 The ideas are very accessible and worked for various stages with a heavier emphasis on steps to take once you have an influencer level of followers。 I especially appreciated the sections on how different types of content can work together。5 stars because it successfully made me want to start a YouTube vlog。 lol。 。。。more

This was an interesting read。 Lots of information about social media marketing and how to successfully build your online brand。 I will say, as someone with barely 1k followers on any platform, a lot of the tips spoken about didn't really apply to me at the moment。 I feel like I did learn things but this is one of those books I'll have to come back to in the future when its more relevant to my social media journey。 This was an interesting read。 Lots of information about social media marketing and how to successfully build your online brand。 I will say, as someone with barely 1k followers on any platform, a lot of the tips spoken about didn't really apply to me at the moment。 I feel like I did learn things but this is one of those books I'll have to come back to in the future when its more relevant to my social media journey。 。。。more

Very informative! The author is so quirky, funny and relatable。 She really gives great pointers on starting in the blogger/influencer world。I’ll be referencing back to this book as I further my blogging career。

خب خیلی امکان امتیاز دادن نیست。 کتاب خیلی کاربردی هست برای کسی که در این فضا شناختی ندارد。 ایضا تا حدی سمت و سوهای فعالیت تجاری را در این این حوزه ترسیم می‌کند。 برای من مطلب جدیدی نداشت。 خیلی هم خوب ترجمه شده。

The beginning was kind of dull but later half contained few real life stories that can be source of inspiration for some and informative for most。 The content isn't geared for all audience, rather specific gender and age group。 The beginning was kind of dull but later half contained few real life stories that can be source of inspiration for some and informative for most。 The content isn't geared for all audience, rather specific gender and age group。 。。。more

Overall Rating: 3 ⭑ This book is difficult to rate, because it was not bad and the author clearly has a lot of experience in multiple facets of this industry, but it was also not what I expected at all。 I really thought this would be an Instagram-specific ode to “Big Magic” by Elizabeth Gilbert to an extent, with a focus on personalizing your brand and the process of creating high quality content。 I thought this could help me figure out how to expand writing on my blog in an effective, modern wa Overall Rating: 3 ⭑ This book is difficult to rate, because it was not bad and the author clearly has a lot of experience in multiple facets of this industry, but it was also not what I expected at all。 I really thought this would be an Instagram-specific ode to “Big Magic” by Elizabeth Gilbert to an extent, with a focus on personalizing your brand and the process of creating high quality content。 I thought this could help me figure out how to expand writing on my blog in an effective, modern way。 But unfortunately for me, the was just a small part of the book and the remainder was more like a “how to” manual on doing this completely for a living with many of the logistics considered。 So if you want that, I’m sure this book will be helpful…but for me, I only really enjoyed ~2-3 chapters, some of the insights provided by influencers, and the ending message of “Why not me?" 。。。more

Quick, easy read written from the perspective of a casting associate as to the qualities brands look for when scouting for influencers。 The last couple of chapters are clear and concise advice that is invaluable for every influencer, brand, manager, etc。 That said, the first half of the book is wildly unnecessary if you have ever made an account on behalf of a brand or a business and/or have a background in marketing。 While it is heavy on the great marketing advice, the tone gets a bit petty and Quick, easy read written from the perspective of a casting associate as to the qualities brands look for when scouting for influencers。 The last couple of chapters are clear and concise advice that is invaluable for every influencer, brand, manager, etc。 That said, the first half of the book is wildly unnecessary if you have ever made an account on behalf of a brand or a business and/or have a background in marketing。 While it is heavy on the great marketing advice, the tone gets a bit petty and self serving with her “don’t be that girl” stories that are meant to teach lessons, but come off as ranting that negates the “just be nice” point that she so often reiterates throughout the book。 。。。more

Focusing my brandI am a male fiction author who originally picked up this book because I’m looking to grow my online brand。 While most of the content targeted an audience of female lifestyle influencers, I still found much of the information helpful。 Some of Hennessy’s strategies for building a brand are universal regardless of gender or job。 It gave me valuable questions to ask myself as I move forward。

I finished "Influencer: Building Your Personal Brand in the Age of Social Media" by Brittany Hennessy。 It offers excellent, usable information for social media influencers and people new to social platforms。 I came across the book in 2019 and have had it on my mental #TBR pile since。 Today I listened to the book, read by the author, on Audible。 To say that I was absorbed is an understatement。 Hennessy offers functioning advice and ready-to-use information for everyone。 Whether you are just start I finished "Influencer: Building Your Personal Brand in the Age of Social Media" by Brittany Hennessy。 It offers excellent, usable information for social media influencers and people new to social platforms。 I came across the book in 2019 and have had it on my mental #TBR pile since。 Today I listened to the book, read by the author, on Audible。 To say that I was absorbed is an understatement。 Hennessy offers functioning advice and ready-to-use information for everyone。 Whether you are just starting or identify as a seasoned blogger looking to grow your base and/or monetize your social media platforms, there's something in this book for everyone。 I was amazed at the tips the author offers from content timelines, what platforms are useful for different social media influencers, and how to reach out to brands to create partnerships。 This book is an excellent tool for anyone who wants to grow their base organically。 As mentioned before, the author doesn't target influencers with a certain follower count, but everyone: from 0 to 100k followers。 Additionally, the audiobook has an accompanying PDF file, "The 10 Commandments of Influencer Marketing。" Hennessy shares more information from her next book, such as not expecting influencers to work for free。 Social Media Marketing utilizing influencers is very specific and can be very rewarding for all parties involved in a campaign。As a bookstagram page, it's a little more puzzling, but I can honestly say I learned a ton and cannot wait to implement some of the tools I picked up from "Influencer。" I must say, so far, the start of 2021 has been delightful。 。。。more

3。5I haven’t seen many books like this available before and was so excited to see it on the shelf at Barnes & Noble as I’m now seriously trying to start my blog & YouTube channel。This was such a helpful, inspiring and interesting read! While it gave a great overview of information, I do feel it lacked a bit of in-depth info and could have explained certain things in more detail。 Overall I’m very thankful to have found this book and have gained new knowledge from it!

Influencer, by Brittany Hennessy, is an informative nonfiction designed to clearly describe the process behind social media success, and how anyone can become a successful entrepreneur。 Some of the things covered include, where to begin, how to earn money, and where you might find lasting success。 Reading this book became more than just an enjoyable experience, when I realized just how complex the things the author was explaining in simple terms。 According to the book, social media success as a Influencer, by Brittany Hennessy, is an informative nonfiction designed to clearly describe the process behind social media success, and how anyone can become a successful entrepreneur。 Some of the things covered include, where to begin, how to earn money, and where you might find lasting success。 Reading this book became more than just an enjoyable experience, when I realized just how complex the things the author was explaining in simple terms。 According to the book, social media success as a prominent influencer can be broken down into 4 simple steps。 Not only did this mean that I was immediately hooked, but I also was enjoying the authenticity and realism of all of its content。 Now, this book is primarily intended to be read by a female audience, meaning its lack of inclusiveness may lead to negative feedback, or lack of proper appraisal。 But, in its defense, not only did the book specifically state that it was meant for anyone, and not just ladies, but it also takes the time to explain terms in a very inclusive, and understandable way。 I rate this book a five out of five, because of excellent writing, and an excellent sense of humor and enjoyment。———————————————————————————P。SI am a social media influencer myself。 Feel free to check out Whipsider on YouTube https://m。youtube。com/c/Whipspider and WhipspiderLive on Twitch! https://m。twitch。tv/whipspiderlive/pr。。。 。。。more
