  • We all know ideas and information spread through word of mouth. But according to Berger, the key to making things really popular happens long before it's discussed at the water cooler or "liked" online. It starts with the message. Drawing on his groundbreaking research, he explains that there are six key steps that make products or ideas contagious. Those "STEPPS" -- Social Currency, Triggers, Emotion, Public, Practical Value, and Stories -- will help any product or idea spread like wildfire. Surprisingly, Berger also reveals just how little word of mouth is generated online versus elsewhere. Whether you're a public health official trying to get the word out, a small business owner trying to get your restaurant to catch on, or a manager at a big company trying to make your product popular, Berger's findings will help you craft products and messages that people will share.

    I just bought this book because of Nipsey Hussle. He was on the Combat Jack Show Podcast in 2013 and spoke about how good it was. He was correct. RIP.

    Totally agree with the STEPPS method of categorising the kind of content that gets shared. Use humour, entertainment and emotions to make content shareable and viral.

    Hi Jonah! My cat sat and watched your video with me which we both found very interesting. Kidding aside it was very interesting and I am going to buy your book to find out more. Good teaser...gotta learn more! I first saw your interview on Marie Forleo which is how I found this video. I am excited to apply these principles to my new venture. Thanks!

    WOW I didn't even realise that when I buy new earphones, I look for ones that are white, because to me that just seems like better quality. But in fact it's just an arbitrary colour! I am so glad he pointed that out... hahaha it was just a behaviour I did without even thinking about it. Apple, you got me! ;)

    This is a very good book, I was paging through it at Barnes and Nobel the other day, and I think I will go back and buy it after watching this video and considering what little I read as I paged through it. Consider this a recommendation. #marketingbookreviews

      yes, the book is really nice. I bought it... I get all my "good" books from amazon recommendations xD I got my best books that way. Amazon just knows, what I like to read.
      And now I did marketing for amazon with a story.

  • @drewmonroe3814
    @drewmonroe3814 Před 10 lety +4

    Jonah fails to grasp his own STEPPS process. His answer to the audience's cat question is actually a lot easier than what he mumbles about - It has nothing to do with the cat being "amendable" to to the meme generated. Rather, cats as animals create a high arousal in emotions. Either we love cats or hate cats and through either emotion we find amusement in the videos. Dogs don't arouse such high and strongly opposing emotions and thus dog vids will never equate to "viral" videos.
