You could simply have written:
C(t) = A + B exp( t/ t0) (*)
(identically the same equation after redefining some symbols)
This has an easy interpretation: you have some population of customers that is undergoing viral growth (quantified by B) and a population of steady customers that is remaining approximately static (quantified by A).
Are you trying to say:
When a product goes viral, you have disentangle the viral population from the static population.
(*) if you don't like using exponential functions, you can write this as
C(t) = A + B * 2^(t/ t_2)
where t_2 is the doubling time. 1 year ago
