On today's episode, we welcomed Grace McCarrick whose expertise is dealing with negativity on social media.
Grace is a founder and content creator on a mission to revolutionize how we approach work. Over the past three years, she has helped teams become more cohesive and has recently worked with brands like Airbnb, Chewy, Abercrombie, and more. She joined us on the podcast today to discuss how she handles receiving hate on the internet!
How to Identify and Analyze Negative Comments
Grace identified three main types of negative comments, which can help you better understand and address them:
- Negativity Toward the Person: These comments target something about you personally (e.g., commenting on your appearance while you're discussing a completely different topic).
- Negativity Toward the Concept: These comments disagree with the core message of your content.
- Negativity Toward Your Credibility: These comments attempt to discredit your expertise, watering down your ideas or creativity.
Grace shared advice on how to deal with all of this and more.
Dealing with negative comments can be tough, but remember, trolls hide behind a screen, believing there will be no consequences for their actions. Grace shared an interesting statistic: far more people consume content than post or create it. Continue putting yourself out there, and your audience will find you.
