I'm going to guess at what you're asking here..\n\nMcDonald's segments their marketing efforts into age and interest categories.\n\nObviously they target children with Happy Meals, Toys, Ronald McDonald, Play Areas, etc.\n\nA second area is parent's that are rushed, showing how you can get a FAST meal at McDonald's.\n\nLately they've been targeting "healthy eaters" by promoting salads, fruit, and other healthy alternatives.\n\nIf you just spend a little time watching their commercials, and trying to catch what they show on various TV channels, you'll quickly see the markets they play to...\n\nNow, if that's not what you're asking.. you need to clarify your question.

Dunkin is not managed wisely. If the execs do a little more research on the competition, and expansion, then DD may likely be all over the domestic US, and earning more bucks.\n\nI personally like the products DD sells they just need to position the stores where there is high traffic, look at Starbucks!

Seems a bit of a daft situation and one theat needs to be looked at.\n\nBusinesses can refuse legal tender just as they can refuse to sell you anything at all. There is no obligation on a business to sell goods or provide a service (other than certain statutory ones).

Thanks to all the third world countries who supply our fast food chains with all the low grade beef to meet their demands, fast food chains can keep on selling the average american.  Quit sending us low grade beef, and maybe the fast food chains will go out of buisness and Americans will be forced to eat something else.  Don' believe me look at what it happening to the rainforests, and the problem that surrounds their economy.  Rainforest Action Network will supply you with what i just sumed up for you.

You basically pick a few stocks that you like.  This could be companies that you're familiar with.  Many of them are publicly traded.  It could be anything from McDonald's to Disney.  Products that you use frequently.  Lots of places to look.

Hello,\n\nI am in Arbonne. No, the market is not flooded, far from it. There is so much room for growth. In 2007, Arbonne is going International. I can email you the demographics report if you would like! I'm clickable.

Businessmen are people, too.\nOK, just took off my rose-colored glasses. Corporate profits can be adversely affected by backlash from consumers and/or government.

If you have a brilliant recipe for fast food that will differ you from your competitors, such as McDonalds KFC, etc; then you have it big as soon as you can convience an investor which is your inventory. And your worth an investor with big pockets to pay for all necassary business activites such as Marketing Advertising, or you could take a loan from your bank, but you will also have to convience them such as business plans, taste actual product.

Market factors enter in when a large company decides to discontinue a product.  It is my belief that such sources of aggrevation become avenues of opportunity.  Not only make your own, look into getting into the market, you won't have RJR to compete with.

Ummm....not REALLY sure what you're asking, but I do know that 1.) Starbucks does not franchise, expect in rare cases like at airports.\n2.) Starbucks will look for "new markets" in highly profitable areas (ie rich neighboorhoods, will usually not open stores in poor retail areas). They will look for high-traffic areas, and areas where other coffee shops do well.

Try a franchise. The will offer you a turn key business opportunity complete with what you are looking for. There are many levels of franchise costs, form the few thousands to the millions (like McDonald's). Look for a market that you are interested. It's better to work at something that you find fun.

If you want to help, you can place an ad in the newspaper on business supl. depending what kind of food, you can also ad in different languages. The other point is to send inforamtion about this restaurant to others restaurant's owners, sometimes they want to expand and they don't care if the revenue is ok or not. But tell the owner he has to invest some money to sell it!!!

They're "about" selling food and products.\n\nWhat's your actual question?
