Viral Loop

Description

Here s how it works: you read a book, you recommend it to a friend. That friend tells another friend. And another... until the book becomes this year s word-of-mouth sensation. This is the first to analyze the power of the 'pass-it-on  phenomenon, introducing us to the architects of the mightily efficient, money-spinning model known as the Viral Loop - the secret behind some of the most successful businesses in recent history. Outfits such as Google, eBay, Flickr and Facebook all employ the model at their core; all have seen their stock valuations skyrocket within years of forming. The genius lies in the model s reliance on replication: what s the point of using Facebook if none of your friends can see your profile, or using Flickr if you can t share your photos?

Find out why the Loop will catch us all up, sooner rather than later... (Description from external book data)
