Made to Stick

Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die
Book • 2007
In this book, Chip and Dan Heath explore the anatomy of ideas that stick and provide methods to make ideas more memorable.

They introduce the SUCCESs formula, which stands for Simple, Unexpected, Concrete, Credible, Emotional, and Stories.

The book is filled with examples from urban legends, business stories, and personal anecdotes, demonstrating how these traits can be applied to make any idea stickier.

It is particularly useful for anyone interested in influencing others, whether in business, education, or other fields.
