RD BK CONTAGIOUS

Here’s a summary table for Contagious: Why Things Catch On by Jonah Berger:

Principle Explanation Example
Social Currency People share things that make them look good, smart, or “in the know.” Exclusive clubs, insider deals, or hidden features in apps.
Triggers Things that are top of mind are more likely to be talked about. "Peanut butter" reminds people of "jelly," leading to word-of-mouth.
Emotion Content that evokes strong emotions (awe, anger, excitement) is more likely to be shared. Viral charity campaigns using emotional storytelling.
Public People imitate what they see others doing—"Monkey see, monkey do." The Apple logo on MacBooks being visible to others when opened.
Practical Value People like to share useful information—life hacks, tips, or deals. "5-Minute Crafts" and viral how-to videos.
Stories A compelling narrative helps spread a message more than facts alone. The viral “Will It Blend?” campaign for Blendtec blenders.

Would you like a more detailed breakdown of any of these principles?
