How Ideas Spread



We think of ideas that spread by word of mouth as most often the new and the clever. But that's not what spreads most, according to a new study available as a free download from the Keller Fay Group. Among several interesting findings is that word of mouth has more to do with the interest level than in novelty. Easy to talk about and worth talking about were leading characteristics, while innovative was in the lowest group.
