Edu: Habit Forming Products - The Secrets Of User Retention with Nir Eyal

If using your product becomes an ingrained habit for your users, you’re well on your way to massive success. But how do you make your product habit-forming?

On this episode of The Startup Podcast Yaniv talks to Nir Eyal, the world’s leading behavioural designer and author of the bestselling book Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products. Nir and Yaniv talk about what types of products can benefit from habit formation (it’s broader than you think!) and how you can implement the four-step “Hooked model” to make your customers reach for your product now and into the future.
