Burger King is a black company, they also invest lots of money they don't really make anymore to black school funds and endowments to black schools.

They just wasted millions paying p diddy for a commercial slot, haha

stocks and such.

BK won't last long.

Also few years back they did heavy heavy advertising on promoting black colleges and black endowments in Louisiana and North Carolina so much that people stopped going, and they had to close over 30% of their locations in those areas. They won't change their menu, and their idea of a healthy snack is fried apples.

Some of what you say is true, but paying puff is not designed to reach the black crowd. Black America makes up 13 percent of the population, Puffs biggest audience is white, suburban, teens. Paying him to do an advertisement is not a bad move at all. He has been a part of extremely successful campains. Pepsi and Ciroc are an example.


A lot of fast food burger joints have gone black. Mc D's is a prime example of this, because that demo is the people who are buying tons of there product, and they are a growing demo. However, Mc's still cators to it's core demo's.

 
Burger King and Wendy's cannot compete against McDonalds.....to much brand recognition, and distribution. They try and be king of there own niche. Wendy's is very successful in their adversing, bk has not done as well.

No, it is a bad move considering how they are missing their numbers each quarter and advertising was too high to start with!

McDonald's mostly black customers I thought you said 13% of population was black?

McDonalds is a worldwide organization they target all demographics.

Have you seen the commercial? I did not think so. It was targeting towards blacks.

I'm not sure the last time I say a white kid walking around with a Sean John or whatever clothing line puff daddy endorses, targeting towards blacks.

I am pretty sure they aren't going anywhere.  hey have almost 12,000 restaurants in almost 70 countries (441 last year alone)  More than $13 billion in annual sales last year worldwide.  Their ARS is an average $1.2 million. They have more than 11 million customers a day meaning that is 11 million customers not going to Mcdonalds or Wendys or another burger joint.  They paid down $125 million in debt and declared two quarterly dividends in fiscal 2007.  They are the 2nd largest fast food restaurant of their type in the world. 

So I am pretty sure BK will be around for a long time.

BK's problems hitting their numbers could be from a slew of issues, the advertising moves they are making is an attempt to improve their brand with consumers, to turn things around. You have to spend money - to make money, and all I'm saying is that BK made a smart move investing in Diddy - he has done extremely well with other companies who have used him to market to consumers. You won't be able to gauge the success of this current venture, for at least 18 months. Advertising takes time. BK can't afford not to spend....Mcdonalds and Wendy's have two of the most successful advertising programs in history. BK would just lose customers standing still.

McDonald's current customers who spend the most (in regards to the size of their population), is black America.....They are trying to grow with the black community, thus investing major dollars marketing to them. They still maintain their core demo, which is already sold on the product (whites). African Americans are not the ones bucking the fast food world, it's white America. Mc D's can see what the future holds, and a large percentage of that future is with minorities. It's easier to get them to believe initiatives, and have less animosity towards the brand, if they get them when they are young.

That's true, but McDonald's media mix for America is totally different than their worldwide media plan. They have a lot of variation in the different types of media they use......nevermind how they approach the entire world. They don't have a single plan for their company, they target different places different ways.

Yes, and my point still stands. McDonald's is smart in that they knew that Diddy has the spillover that can help them accomplish two goals. They can target black America with his endorsement, and also hit the vast majority of the people who buy the Diddy brand, white America. Diddy is a two headed monster.....by default he hits African Americans, but he also has a huge audience that is young and white.

If you look at who is buying the Diddy brand - you will find that the largest percentage of his consumers are suburban white kids. The hip hop genre has been adopted by gen y, and they are soon to be the largest spending force in America. You don't have to be ghetto to like hip hop. You would be hard pressed to find a typical, white, suburban, teen, who doesent like at least one hip hop artist. Hip hop has been adopted by large companies, and some of the most successful marketing campaigns are using it currently. Sean John also has a serious fashion line, that has been shown at most the large shows in America - (and beyond). Aside from country, I don't see a bigger emerging spending force than hip hoppers, and gen y.


BK may be struggling right now, but they are not done - imo.

Better than "nig ger" isn't it?  By the way, the NAACP thinks "colored people" is an acceptable term.
