 | | The Snapple line of teas and juices was founded by three Brooklyn entrepreneurs who, in the process of goofing around with their small company, eventually stumbled on the brand's myth. |  | | The brand's viral characteristics—its buzz, its underground coolness, and the ragtag community of fans that formed around Snapple—all are consequences of the resonance of the brand's myth, which became embodied in the large-mouthed bottles of juices and teas. |  | | As we will see with Snapple, while viral processes are (as always) important for the diffusion of branding efforts, viral branding itself is not a viable approach for building an iconic brand. |
