Viral products are easy to watch and harder to shop. A product can look amazing in a ten-second video and still be forgettable once it arrives. The best viral gifts have one thing in common: the fun survives after the scroll.
What makes a viral product worth buying?
Look for products with an instant payoff. Can you understand why it is fun without a long explanation? Does it look interesting in person? Would you use it more than once? Those questions eliminate a lot of hype.
