Mc Arnold's Fast Food Delivery
Company Background
Mc Arnolds is a new fast food restaurant located in Downtown
Atlanta, GA and after noticing a need for a fast food chain that
would deliver instead of just being a takeout or dine in
restaurant. Mc Arnold’s is located in the center of downtown
Atlanta by all of the main business, and by two major colleges
in the area. At the moment there are no fast food chains in the
area that provide such service and who would benefit from it.
Every day hundreds of workers want to leave their office for
lunch, but realize that it takes too much of their lunch time to

2. go get their food and have time to consume it at the same time.
So Mc Arnolds will provide that fast deliver the customer.

Competitors Analysis
When it comes to fast food it may be number one on the list for
people when they need a quick lunch meal, just something quick
while they are on lunch or even between classes while at school.
Yes most of the time the service is not the best at all, so while I
am trying to provide this delivery service to keep people from
having to leave their office. It will also come with outstanding
customer service. When it comes to the food cost that will
remain the same so that McArnolds can stay competitive, but
what Mc Arnolds will do is lower the for delivery or have it
where if the customer orders a certain amount the delivery
charge will be waived. Certain items on the menu will not be
able to delivery because it may be an item that may not make it
and still be in the same form it should be in. One key factor is
that Mc Arnolds will offer nutrients foods as well as your
burger and fries.
When it comes to competition you have Burger King, Subway,

4. and may be Wendy’s but none of them offer a delivery service
to your hotel room, office space or even to your school. So
when it comes to that outstanding customer service you will
always be able to count on Mc Arnolds for that.
Mc Arnolds will strive for the best and will succeed in
maintaining good quality food, great customer service, and
excellent delivery time on the food. If weekly or monthly
training is necessary then that is what will be done to stay on
that level.
Company Analysis
Mc Arnolds is solely owned by James Deering who have over 20
years customer service and about 14 years management
experience and who will setting for nothing but the best from
his employees. Mr. Deering understands that this type of job is
not a career job for most of his employees but with weekly and
monthly training, they should always be prepared for the worst.
When it comes to the customer the number one problem it helps
solve is time, and the ability to still be able to complete work or
do other things if need be. When it comes to the customer and
having to make a decision, it’s really not that hard because they
will eat something for lunch. Just deciding on who they will
order from are some of the key factors.
Market-Product Grid
The following information that is provided is the market-
product grid. According to the survey Mc Arnolds did this was

After conducting the market product research and it would be
better for Mc Arnolds to serve the locals in the area,
Businesses, students, and tourists at the local hotels. One main
factor for this is because there are two major Universities in the
area plus all the large corporation in the area including the
hotels. For the delivery service hours they will be from open
until close but Mc Arnold’s thinks that the best success will be
doing lunch hours from all the customers, and feels it will be ok
for the local hotels and schools at night. And due to the fact that
Mc Arnolds is fast food they will be able to operate during all
four seasons.
Market Segments
While conducting the research for the marketing plan, Mc

6. Arnolds interviewed a few potential customers that could see
themselves using the service. Having a lot of knowledge in the
fast food business the company can see the target market being
all ethnicities, and even gender. And when it comes to age
group I would say anyone above the age of 18 would benefit
from the service.
Mc Arnolds needs to remember that there are a lot of fast foods
chains in the area that do exist. So that’s also why Mc Arnolds
will deliver more than just French fries, and burgers, the menu
will consist of a lot of different items that will be low on
calories as well to help draw in the healthier eaters as well.
Mc Arnold’s main focus will be on the students at the local
college in the area, plus all of the business workers in the area.
Second will be local or nearby hotels and maybe late night
business workers.
Points of Difference
Here are some characteristics that set Mc Arnolds aside and
make them better:
· Mc Arnolds will be one of the only places that deliver besides
a pizza restaurant
· Delivery time will be on point to insure customer satisfaction
· Prices will be very competitive, even with the delivery charge
added
· Incorporating the healthy items will be business as well
Positioning
Mc Arnolds best interest will be providing customer
service to the highest level and making sure that all deliveries
are being meet with in the time allotted. And being able to have
that wide range on the menus that will always satisfy any taste
the customer may have.

When it comes to the stage, Mc Arnolds is at the Development/
testing phase. Within this testing phase we want to see how far
of a delivery range we can go and still be able to maintain hot
fresh food at the same time. So Mc Arnolds will be doing some
mock deliveries to insure everything works before it is
implemented, the less kickbacks the better. Depending on had
bad the test runs are will determine if it’s something Mc
Arnolds will send back to the development process or just do
away with it.
Promotion Strategy
Since Mc Arnolds is a business that has been around it
should not be that hard to start advertising that we now have a
delivery service, and Mc Arnolds will start off by word of
mouth, so when the customers come in to order or even while in
the drive through our employees are instructed to spread the
word as well as pass out fliers. As business starts to pick up we
may use the billboard and in the local area and put up some
signs on the door so as customers enter they are able to see
them.
Some other ways will be ads in the newspaper, along with
someone standing outside with a sign saying now offering
delivery service and maybe the radio station depending on the
cost of that form of advertising.
Place Strategy

8. As stated before Mc Arnolds is not a new store and it is located
in the heart of down town Atlanta, GA which should not be a
problem, because it is in the center of some of the busiest areas.
And when customers see the sign with the big MC they will
know automatically who it is from a distance.
Financial Projection
To insure that Mc Arnolds break even we took the total of
average meal with a drink, which is a typical meal. This price is
averaged at $8.00. So the fixed cost for Mc Arnolds per month
will be $9,360 which includes employees pay, food,
management, and bills for the building. To break even Mc
Arnolds would have to sell at least 2340 meals per month before
we can start making any profit.

Designing the Marketing Plan
Product innovation and marketing are the only enduring
competitive advantage companies can use to survive and thrive
in the marketplace. In the next seven weeks, you are going to
participate in designing and writing a marketing plan for a
product or service of your choosing. Your active participation
in this project is essential to building your understanding of
marketing and secondly, you can use a well written marketing
plan to show prospective employers a sample of your work.
A marketing plan is a travel guide for the marketing activities
of an organization for a specified future period of time. The
plan can be used internally to guide the marketing activities or
it can be used to communicate with external audiences to raise
capital. Important questions to keep in mind as you design your
plan are:
1. Is the marketing idea valid?
2. What is unique or distinctive about the product or service
that separates it from substitutes and competitors?
3. Does a viable market exist for the product or service?
4. Are the financial projections sound?
5. Is the management team competent?
6. How will the investors/debtors get their money back with a
return on their investment?
In order to help you answer these questions and many others the
course provides the following:

12. · "Building an Effective Marketing Plan" as Appendix A on
page 54 of your textbook. (Includes example of a marketing
plan)
· "Financial Aspects of Marketing" as Appendix B on page 380
of your textbook.
· A sample student written marketing plan located in Doc
Sharing.
· A marketing plan outline located in Doc Sharing. (Your focus
should be on content and not structure)
· A marketing plan student guide that describes each section of
the marketing plan.
· A grading rubric for the marketing plan.
· At the end of each chapter in your textbook, you will complete
the Building Your Marketing Plan (BYMP) exercise and use this
information as input into your plan.
