The company just posted its biggest quarterly sales gain in two years. While Burger King boosted North American sales by 3.6%, McDonald's plunged 3.3%
1. Promotions and discounting.
Cash-strapped Americans are increasingly unwilling to shell out for fast food.
Burger King has lured in customers with promotions like the two for $5 sandwich deal, Businessweek writes. The brand also started selling 10 chicken nuggets for $1.49.
To help offset the discounts, Burger King raised the prices of some items.
While McDonald's offered a promotion on free coffee, the higher price of burgers is a turnoff for consumers.
2. Simplified menu.
Burger King decided to focus on "fewer and more impactful products," chief executive Daniel Schwartz told analysts.
This strategy benefits Burger King because it simplifies operations in the kitchen, making service faster. It also means that franchisees aren't shelling out for a variety of products that potentially go to waste.
"Some products are just new permutations of things already in the kitchen," Wong writes. "The Rodeo Burger, for instance, is basically a standard burger with onion rings and barbecue sauce."
McDonald's, meanwhile is struggling with a menu that has become too complicated.
3. Fast renovations.
Burger King is on-track to remodel 40% of its restaurants by the end of 2015, boosting sales by as much as 10%, executives say.
McDonald's, which has a larger store footprint, "appears to be undergoing renovation at a slower rate," Wong writes.
By renovating stores with a modern feel, Burger King is able to better compete with fast-casual competitors like Chipotle.
While McDonald's has fallen on hard times, the average store still makes twice as much as Burger King restaurants.

Ew! Neither! I have to stay skinny.
I eat a lot, but I don't eat junk. I'm not trying to offend anyone that does eat it. It just isn't good for you. You will get a heart attack by age 50.

Burger King for sure.
The mac food don't just look so appealing. Also I grew up with friends parties going to Burger King, so i developed a taste for Burger King.
They are after the burger... king.

Well....maybe sometimes Yolo isn't such a good motto to live by. It doesn't sound like a fun way to end your life. "Smoke cigarettes and give more money to an industry that kills people daily, because Yolo!" No thank you! That stuff makes me so emotional! |
