How to Deal with the Podcast Haters and Critics

It's inevitable - as a podcaster/content creator, you're going to upset some people. It's the nature of the beast. There is simply no way to please 100% of your listening audience 100% of the time. Unfortunately, we live in a world where people are two to three times more likely to leave you a negative review when they're upset about something versus a positive review when they're happy with what they hear.

Crazy, right?

As much as you may not want to see a negative review or get a bunch of heat thrown your direction, it's not the end of the world. It also can be turned into a positive if you approach everything with the right frame of mind.

On Episode 91 of Pod Theory, I'm going to share my thoughts on reviews, some statistics that back up my claims, and how you can deal with the haters and the critics by putting a positive spin on each situation. The more you seek to accentuate the positives and learn from any negativity that comes your way, the stronger you'll be AND the better your production quality will become.
