Maybe don't attach your name to a project that you're not actually supervising in sufficient detail to ensure its quality? The whole point of trademarks is that whoever's mark it is, is supposed to stand by their product.

That is sorta what he's doing right now. He's suing to terminate the agreement because they won't do it correctly. I mean, I get what you're saying, he isn't the one executing the project, but I can't blame him for suing at this point, and for trying I guess.

Is it just me, that whenever I see mrbeast face with that stupid smile I want so bad to punch him?

He needs to go the Linus Media Group approach if he wants to diversify his business.

Oh my god, Beast Burger is dead

Seems like a pretty complicated business model.. according to the article, if I have this correct, customers order his burgers and they’re made at another location? Like your burger could be made at a McDonald’s or a steak place? Then it’s delivered to the customers? I’ve never even heard of a MrBeast burger… damn.. now ****I want a burger 🍔 😑

A YouTuber called Eddy Burback did a decent job explaining things here I think: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkIkymh5Ayg

I enjoyed that video immensely! Thank you for sharing it! Definitely confusing and a little weird to think one kitchen can put out 44 restaurant’s menus. And I’ve personally never ordered food from any Uber eats/doordash etc. If I want a burger, I just make it at home…I’m probably in the minority here.. 😂
