Designing for virality?

Do you try to design your SaaS business to have a viral factor? If so:

  • How did you achieve spread?
  • What basic reproduction number have you achieved? Do you measure it?
  • Do you design new features for virality, if so, what techniques do you use?
  • Is going viral one of your primary goals?
