Episode Synopsis

This is the story of how McDonalds came to be the #1 fast food chain in the world, analyzed and explained.When Ray Kroc laid his eyes on Dick and Mac McDonald’s single-location operation in San Bernardino, he knew it was special. He’d never seen anything like it — the energy, the excitement and the efficiency, especially. So he asked the brothers out to dinner to pick their brain.With some time and convincing, the brothers reluctantly agreed to let Kroc come onboard as partner in the capacity of Head of Franchising. But Ray was a growth-minded entrepreneur, not a franchisee. Whereas the McDonald brothers were content to remain small and focused, Kroc was all about scale.Listen in as I recount the story of his ascent from those humble beginnings to the creation of an empire.Credit for sound clips: The Founder, 2016. ↓ 𝗡𝗘𝗫𝗧 𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗣𝗦 ↓===============📖 CONTENT CAPITALIST: https://t.ly/9_9JG===============🎓 eLearning Academy: https://t.ly/u0Dk5===============🌐 Articles: https://michaelbecker.org/articles/===============____________________________________👉👉👉 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐞, 𝐑𝐚𝐭𝐞, 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰____________________________________➤ Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/officialmbecker➤ Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mjbecker____________________________________➤ Get my book CONTENT CAPITALIST: https://t.ly/KDZAS➤ Get my book ORDER OF THE INFINITE: https://a.co/d/7yaVPcq➤ Enroll in my eLearning course for content entrepreneurs: https://michaelbecker.org/courses/content-capitalist-academy/____________________________________⭐ Turn on notifs to get pinged when I publish➕ Follow/Subscribe-- Thank you for listening, and namaste! -- Hosted on Acast.
