     |      May  2013      |      www.makesocialsense.com      |    [email protected]         •  We  would  recommend  considering  ways  to  expand  the  Collect  To  Win  system  to  build  on  the  excitement  of  collecFng   towards  a  prize.  Customers  clearly  appeared  far  more  interested  and  excited  about  the  prospect  of  progressively  working   their  way  closer  and  closer  to  a  desirable  prize,  than  simply  hoping  to  win  it  via  an  Instant  Win  fluke.     •  One  idea  could  be  introducing  a  rewards  system,  where  each  Lme  customers  buy  food  they  receive  ‘house’  sLckers  they  may   use  on  any  street  set  on  the  Monopoly  board,  and  e.g.  10  house  sLckers  allow  a  lucky  draw  -­‐    which  could  contain  a  street   sLcker  on  that  set  or  a  different  prize.  AddiLons  of  this  sort  could  help  further  increase  customers’  interest  in  the  Monopoly   game,  and  create  incenLves  to  eat  at  McDonald’s.     8   Powered  by  Brandwatch      |      www.brandwatch.com

     |      May  2013      |      www.makesocialsense.com      |    [email protected]       Mid-­‐Tier  Prizes     •  Mid-­‐Ler   prizes   received   less   glamour   and   publicity   than   the   50k   grand   prize.   Judging   by   the   comments,   mid-­‐Fer   prizes   however  provided  a  strong  incenFve  for  people  to  repeatedly  eat  at  McDonalds  due  to  the  fact  that  they  felt  they  actually   had  a  shot  at  winning.  The  50k  grand  prize  seemed  to  be  more  of  pipedream.   •  Consequently,  we  believe  it  is  important  to  offer  an  afracLve  range  of  mid-­‐Ler  prizes,  and  adverLse  them  as  a  key  feature  of   the  Monopoly  compeLLon.  The  Collect  To  Win  scheme  works  parLcularly  well  with  these  prize,  leading  people  to  believe  they   are  building  up  towards  winning  a  realisLc  prize.         e.g.     9   Powered  by  Brandwatch      |      www.brandwatch.com

         May  2013      |      www.makesocialsense.com      |    [email protected]       Is  That  It?     •  “Is  this  small  prize  really  all  I  get?”  was  a  recurring  theme  in  customers’  comments.  Some  customers  expressed  frustraLon   that  the  compeLLon  is  a  waste  of  money;  that  they  are  playing  for  serious  prizes  on  the  Monopoly  board  and  all  they   receive  are  endless  ‘cheap’  prizes  they  do  not  want,  or  could  have  bought  instead  of  spending  money  at  McDonalds.               •  In  conclusion,  not  all  customers  enjoy  receiving  small,  frequent  prizes.  Some  customers  who  parLcipate  in  the  McDonald’s   Monopoly  game  do  so  for  the  purpose  of  building  up  their  game  board  for  the  larger  rewards,  and  they  would  prefer  the   compeLLon  to  be  more  focused  towards  this,  and  less  on  offering  lots  of  trivial  prizes  along  the  way.  The  introducFon  of   the  Guaranteed  Win  system  has  therefore  been  received  differently  by  different  groups.     •  This  again  stems  from  the  fact  that  hosLng  a  compeLLon  creates  expectaLons  about  prizes,  and  different  people  will  have   different  expectaLons  and  moLves.  We  would  recommend  considering  ways  of  separaFng  these  customer  groups  out.   Perhaps   several   small   prizes   could   be   collected   to   trade   in   for   a   larger   prize,   or   instead   of   referring   to   the   lower   Ler   Guaranteed   Win   prizes   as   ‘prizes’   they   could   be   considered   ‘loyalty   perks’.   Another   opLon   could   be   to   focus   more   on   offering  various  McDonald’s  food  discount  vouchers  as  a  loyalty  scheme  –  this  way  the  loyalty  benefits  could  be  retained,   yet  people  would  not  feel  they  are  necessarily  winning  a  Monopoly  Prize.         e.g.     14   Powered  by  Brandwatch      |      www.brandwatch.com
