Battle of the Burgers: Big Mac vs Whopper

February 15, 2011 | 3 Comments

Sure, you can measure overall online sentiment towards a brand but that’s not particularly useful. You need to measure very specific aspects of your brand such as the fizziness of the soda pop, the dust on the shelves, or the pickle in your burger. This case study demonstrates the level of detailed analysis that can be achieved by combining content analysis and social media research.

Even if you’ve never tried the competition, you have a favorite hamburger. Check out our newest case study pitting the McDonald’s Big Mac against the Burger King Whopper. Tomatos, sauce, and onions, oh my! Who will win and do you agree?

    This could have been a very interesting study. I would have more reason to pay attention if there was mention of how many people made up the study. The conclusion you have reached (a 2:1 preference on Whopper vs. Big Mac if you hold out neutral comments as statistically insignificant) does not seem to me to offer enough scope to determine its significance without knowing the numbers.

    Nicely presented.

    Thank you! Sample size was referenced as thousands on the second last slide. (Actually around 8 000 for each burger.)
