McDonald’s Success is Built on Acceptance & Rejection

What?

Every decision we make as humans is built upon Acceptance & Rejection so if you use this fact correctly then you will make a fortune like McDonald’s have. If you do not use this fact correctly then you will struggle or even worse you may find yourself out of business sooner rather than later!

Acceptance & Rejection drives humans NATURALLY without any effort and that is what makes this tool THE most effective business tool to create maximum leverage for your business!

To clarify; imagine a family hungry in a town or city which they are unfamiliar with!

Now consider just a few known natural human drives like greed or value for money.

Then consider the fact that 9 out of 10 humans do not like making decisions and finally consider the decisions they must make as listed below if they wish to consider a different food outlet other than McDonalds and you will soon see why McDonalds is so successful:

What will the food taste like?
How much will it cost?
Do they have seats for children?
How long will it take to get served?
Etc, etc, etc.

In actual fact you only need 1 person in any group to fear any one or all of the above questions and… the rest of the group will follow just like sheep as no one wants conflict or rejection and everyone wants acceptance!

With such strong natural human attributes driving your clients’ every decision how well do you think your business will do if you build your business foundation on peoples’ natural fear of Rejection and desire for Acceptance…

From the age of 8 I started working in our family business, getting up at the crack of dawn (4 A.M) to go and buy the stock with my uncle which we would sell in our wholesale operations and chain of retial shops, on to my first entrepreneurial adventure, TCAS in Germany, one thing was completely clear to me then, and still is now.

It was and is my fundamental objective to identify and eradicate the weaknesses the damage our businesses chance of creating real and serious success.

Real profits lie in business operations and I have become an operations genius!

Marketing is a simple numbers game but streamlining before marketing ensures maximum return on everything you do!!!

Re: Anyone Uses Elance.com? Guru.com? Rentacoder.com? Re: Anyone Uses Elance.com? Guru.com? Rentacoder.com? - oDesk.com is by far the best freelancing web site out there. Built in reputation systems, built in accountability functions, and real-time mediation/arbitration for bad projects. They are good tools to outsource work.
A good screening process for new hires A good screening process for new hires - Another good screening method is the one McDonalds uses for its new employees. Applicants are subjected to two interviews (i.e. the first one by an assistant manager and the second by the store manager) and they have a "Crew Trainer" work with them for his/her first 3 shifts, each one being only 3 hours in duration. And at the end of the training period, an evaluation is done on the new hire and if he/she passes, there's a 6 month probation period before he/she is considered an "official" employee with full benefits (e.g. granted an employee card that allows them to get 50% off their meals at any McDonalds store location). And during the probation period, new hires are evaluated multiple times by various senior staff members (to ensure there's no biased performance reviews).
McDonald's rebranding McDonald's rebranding - I've just been doing a bit of research into McDonalds - not for any business reasons - but over at Wikipedia it says that: In 2006, McDonald's introduced its "Forever Young" brand by redesigning all of their restaurants, the first major redesign since the 1970s.[5][6] The new design will include the traditional McDonald's yellow and red colors, but the red will be muted to terra cotta, the yellow will turn golden for a more "sunny" look, and olive and sage green will be added. To warm up their look, the restaurants will have less plastic and more brick and wood, with modern hanging lights to produce a softer glow. Contemporary art or framed photographs will hang on the walls. The exterior will have golden awnings and a "swish brow" instead of the traditional double-slanted mansard roof. The new restaurants will feature areas: The "linger" zone will offer armchairs, sofas, and Wi-Fi connections. The "grab and go" zone will feature tall counters with bar stools for customers who eat alone; Plasma TVs will offer them news and weather reports. The "flexible" zone will be targeted toward families and will have booths featuring fabric cushions with colorful patterns and flexible seating. Different music will be targeted to each zone. Now I admit I haven't been to a McDonalds in a long time - I usually go to KFC, but their are two photos of the "old" and the "new" McDonalds frontages, and I've gotta tell ya, the old, white-fronted building looks a lot nicer than the new, "terra cotta" fronted building. I might nip into a local McDonalds tomorrow, see if I like the interior changes....
