On 1 January 2014, McDonald’s had a historic guest count of over 477,700 customers, with a record-breaking sale of over $16 million. People of Hong Kong got to enjoy a fantastic morning, afternoon and evening with delicious food while reading uplifting news stories and columns.
As a brand that represents happiness, we successfully gave Hong Kong a boost, by offering them great breakfast sets throughout the day and a fantastic start to the new year.
To launch its all-day breakfast promotion on 1 January 2014 for one day only, McDonald’s wants an engaging way to cheer people up. Since year 2013 was a year full of frustrating news in Hong Kong, we see this as a great opportunity to cheer people up and to connect with the community as another year approaches. We came up with a one-of-a-kind newspaper to go with the breakfast, because having breakfast and reading the paper always go together. The “Happy Newspaper” only ran great news. So consumers may enjoy their breakfast at any time of the day, while reading only delightful news and nothing else, kicking off a great start to a brand new year.
