In this episode of The Disruptive Entrepreneur, Rob tackles the debate surrounding freedom of speech, a topic he’s kept quiet about for over 15 years! Should we fight for our right to speak and say what we want regardless of the consequences? Or should we be held more accountable for defamation, bullying and criticism? Join the discussion as Rob weighs in on the effects of social media, how you can harm your business and your brand by sharing your opinion and the mindset you need to evolve in a world filled with critics, haters and trolls.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Freedom of speech is having the right and the freedom to express. The freedom to hold opinions and to receive and impart information and ideas without interference and regardless of frontiers.
• We’re banning people on social media platforms just because we don’t agree with their opinions and their concepts. It’s every individual’s right to share their opinion in any way they wish but is it too easy for business owners to harm their brand, their business and their reputation by sharing their views on social media.
• If we limit freedom of speech are main rights are being taken away from us but at what point should there be accountability? Should we be allowed to bully, defame and troll others on social media without any consequences?
• The world would be a better place if we could disagree with people without judging them and have differing opinions without one being right and one being wrong. It’s important to surround yourself with people that challenge you and open your mind up to new ideas and new ways of thinking. This will help you to evolve.

BEST MOMENTS

“Social media is for discussion and should not be used for bullying and trolling.”

“Could you argue that social media cannot sensor your opinion and your posts? Is your freedom of speech being affected when people are banned from social media platforms”

“Never wrestle with a pig in shit. You both get covered in shit but the pig likes it”

“Should we really have freedom of speech? Is it our constitutional right? Or should we be held more accountable to the things we say?”

Social media presents entrepreneurs, business owners and humanity with a great opportunity, but also a great threat. There are upsides and downsides to building your brand online and sharing your story and your journey on Social Media and in today’s episode, Rob explores the positives and the negatives, sharing his own experiences along the way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Social Media is a great platform for the upside of your business, it enables you to connect with your audience, your community and grow and scale your business but there are downsides too.
• Social media is an enabler of building your brand at a low cost and allows you to reach millions of people, build a community of customers, clients, follows and fans and solve peoples problems and all for free.
• Social media is worth all of the downsides because the downsides of social media will be there in business and in life regardless. There’s always an upside and a downside and all social media does is to exaggerate it.
• Social media is a mirror to humanity. If you use social media to help people, to build your brand and to get your message out to the masses you’re going to get more clients, find more funders, supporters and subscribers. With a vast brand, you will manifest new clients through social media.

BEST MOMENTS

“If you put yourself out there on social media and share your brand and your business in an authentic way, people will hate exactly what’s great about you.”

“There are inner critics and outer critics.”

“Lots of people are barking on social media without doing enough research”

“Too many people are using social media as a weapon”

“There are upsides and downside to social media”
