Summary
Lea Turner burst onto the LinkedIn scene in 2019, transforming her small transcription business through humorous, relatable, and uplifting social media posts that garnered rapid attention over a very short time, and received hundreds of new inbound clients thanks to her consistent presence on LinkedIn.
Due to countless requests, she started showing others how to do the same and charging for it, which resulted in her shutting down the transcription business to offer LinkedIn training full time to individuals and companies globally.
In five years, she has grown her social media following to over 200k across platforms, spoken on UK and international stages, scaled her LinkedIn training to multi-6 figures and grown a global paid membership community (The HoLT) to nearly 600 members……all whilst juggling solo parenthood to her joyful little boy, needy dog, and demanding cats. She's also on the board of trustees for Hope4, a charity passionately supporting human and animal victims of poverty, domestic violence, trafficking and conflict.
Today Lea and I have a chat about how to deal with trolling and how to turn it into something that works for you. Both of us have had to learn to overcome this obstacle as so many successful entrepreneurs do and so we wanted to share with you how we see it, so that you never let trolling stop your visibility.
