Ray Kroc, the President of McDonald's, did not invent or even improve the hamburger. He invented a new way of marketing hamburgers.
The Original McDonald's restaurant was a small hamburger stand in San Bernardino, California. Two brothers, Maurice and Richard McDonald, ran the stand.
Kroc was a 52 years old salesman of multimixers, the mixers the McDonald brothers used to make their shakes. When Kroc received an order for eight multimixers-enough to make forty milkshakes at once from these brothers, he flew out to see the business for himself.
With sales of over $350000 a year, McDonald's was one of the most successful little restaurants in America, which had the potential to expand among the country. BUT BOTH BROTHERS HATED TO FLY.
When Kroc flew in and formed a partnership with them and took care of franchising their business, they signed on the dotted line. Kroc's marketing strategy aided around:
  1. Rigidly following McDonald brothers' original recipes even after buying them out.
  2. Rigidly ensuring that every customer from Anchorage to Miami get an identical product.
Many great fortunes have been based on a single marketing insight.
