Hmm. You converted me. I'll give it a shot in the next month or so. See if McDonalds will hire you as a part-time marketing rep (if you aren't one already)

I think I'll try this at my McDonalds job

If my app is only as successful as McDonalds, I'll take it.

I think you'll find McDonald's can make you do all of those things.

McDonald's is very often a love or hate divide as you can already see from some of the comments here. You could prevent that distraction by using a generic food takeout store and ask people to imagine their favorite. The article will resonate with a larger audience, and the comments will be higher quality.

Would be interesting as you are a specific target audience.

Do any of you guys even eat at McDonalds? I mean sure i did as Kid when i didn't knew better, but i reasonable Adult?


To what? Working at McDonald’s?

I got an ad for McDonalds on this

But does this get you any savings? To lure people back to restaurants (which McD's is, barely) there has to be some novel marketing

What the people who designed this website need is a job at McDonald's.

I think you'd only get feedback from people who eat at McDonald's.

Seems like a good way to promote the app specifically and McDonald's in general. I wonder what the ROI on something like this is vs a more traditional marketing campaign.

Yes, McDonald did this kind of thing a few years back https://youtu.be/rcu4Bj3xEyI

To be fair, I would do that McDonald’s thing without having ever seen that ad.

They may simply know their market well enough to know that people who tend to do McDonald’s take it as a “different kind of food”.


Do you think it would work for food. Or maybe that's what McDonalds is.

Sure but I don't think they'll be exactly in McDonalds target audience here. Their dietary habits are on the polar opposite end.

Ok so, this is good for McDonalds actually?

Visit mcdonalds.com?

"Gruseom likes McDonalds Hamburgers." It works if you just did it, or did it 3 years ago.

This is a good point. I'm not in the target audience for McDonalds either, but even if I were and I really really liked McDonalds, it wouldn't make it any healthier or more substantial. I would still be better off eating something else.
