The 6 Principles of Virality

After analyzing hundreds of contagious messages, products, and ideas, Jonah Berger noticed that the same six “ingredients,” or principles, were often at work:

  2. Triggers
  3. Emotion 
  4. Public
  5. Practical Value
  6. Stories        

These principles can be compacted into an acronym. Taken together, they spell STEPPS.
