"Shame is an opportunity, to show integrity, innovation and a new side of yourself"
This is what little advice I have on the negative people that want to essentially heckle/degrade your biz plans/projects.
Take a longer view, look past the mountains to see the open fields.
The opportunity of negative feedback is that people will naturally gravitate to "reinvention" IF, you keep steady and keep working.
I think the reason for this, is that negative feedback is often a minority based on just the general temprements and nature's of the public. If you persist enough and improve, when the haters clear out and feel they've done their thing, you can show a new side that values positive customers, and they will come back to see the new and improved version.
Hating twice in a row isn't as easy as hating HARD once. So persist, reinvent yourself, and operate a side biz to weather the storm.
Keep the chin up, smile, have more fun in your own life, and come back to it.
Haters pass on. And your biz can come back strong.
Also:
Be professional, and appreciate all who give feedback. Don't assume that all negative comments are haters. Give them benefit of the doubt, and THEN be so professional that you never discover their worst side.
Additional:
Be careful of the effect of negative feedback on your workers. Tell them what to focus on, and that you don't expect them to be percieved xyz by the audience right now, and buy them a pizza or something so they can let off steam and just give it all time.
Generally these things pass, even though you think they won't. I like to think that everyone is positive, and that negative feedback is just a hiccup. But in the case that I feel the walls closing in, just remember that shame passes and reinvention comes out of the ashes. Who knows, it might in the end be an ok thing.
Try not to worry much about it.
