Best Business Audiobooks’ review: Contagious is a recent book (2014) that will show you the recipe to make your marketing content go viral. You want your message to be shared to as many people as possible. The author mention that he based himself on the finding from the book ‘Made To Stick’ from Chip Heath & Dan Heath and went a notch further to understand how sticky idea become contagious. Perhaps because I listen to ‘Made to Stick’ first, I have preferred it over ‘Contagious’. However both books are very good and similar, so you don’t have to listen to both.
