What about inviting as many lactating moms and their children to come with her
to McD's and have a happy nursing party there, presenting the manager his future
clientele. He can take it or leave it: accept them now and have them later or
send them away and loose lots of future consumers. Don't forget to invite local
media.
McD should recognise this great opportunity for positive and free advertising
and building goodwill by presenting as a real family centered and family
friendly restaurant.
And by the way, if a salad is included and if it's not for every day, eating at
McD's or thelike is not necessairily a non-nutritve way to eat.
