An article in Yahoo headlined as “McDonald’s Ranks Last in Customer Satisfaction Index” was bound to get some attention. It even inspired us enough to blog about it. Apparently as per the survey and the article, not all of McDonald’s customers are ‘lovin’ it’.

Why Should I care About McDonalds’ Service?

Should anyone care that in a report released by the American Consumer Satisfaction Index (ACSI), McDonald’s finished last among its restaurant peers in Fast food restaurants.

The question though one has to ask is does it make a difference if you serve 68 million customers a day?  The way this seems is that one in every four people could not be satisfied with the service received. Some of these feature obviously across the pond more so than they do in the UK. One can not help but wonder are there lessons to be learnt?

Satisfied Clients?

The list insofar as percentages are concerned is:

Papa John’s 83%

Subway 82%

Little Caesar 82%

Dunkin Donuts 79%

Pizza Hut 78%

Wendy’s 78%

Domino’s Pizza 77%

Taco Bell 77%

Starbucks 76%

KFC 75%

Burger King 75%

McDonald’s 73%

Improving Customer Satisfaction for Lawyers

As Macky D’s 73 percent satisfaction score is in fact a lot higher that it was 12 years ago at 59 percent. Whilst the businesses are different in nature, and the saying remains true that one can not please all of the people all of the time.

Why do I see McDonald’s on a law firm blog?
