'One of the most influential books of the year' Michael Levin, Huffington Post
'The most buzzed about business book of the year!' Forbes
'Everything that a PR or spin doctor has traditionally advised: do the opposite' The Times
'The best in the business' Variety

*One of Bustle's 20 Best Nonfiction Books*


In the space of five years, Jeetendr Sehdev has shaken up the world of entertainment by revealing how social media stars generate more obsession than the Hollywood A-list. What can he teach us about making our own ideas, products and services break through?

Jeetendr shows why successful images today - the most famous being Kim Kardashian - are not photoshopped to perfection, but flawed, vulnerable, and in-your-face. This total transparency generates a level of authenticity that traditional marketing tactics just can't touch.

From YouTube sensations like Pew Die Pie to taxi-hailing app Uber, The Kim Kardashian Principle reveals the people, products and brands that do it best. After all, in a world where a big booty can break the internet, self-obsession is a must-have. No posturing, no apologies, and no shying away from the spotlight.

The Kim Kardashian Principle
by Jeetendr Sehdev is a fresh, provocative and eye-opening guide to understanding why only the boldest and baddest ideas will survive - and how to make sure yours is one of them.

Boring non-fiction about social media by a man who knows nothing about social media and actively buys bots to bolster his fake numbers. His “real life” examples are few and pathetic. I’m convinced he’s a narcissist.
