Ray Kroc turned his problems into a global success. Kroc partnered with the founders of McDonald's restaurants in 1954. The finances caused the business to appear successful. Yet, Kroc recognized a problem. The founding brothers wanted to continue business with a small number of restaurants. Kroc saw the potential that was being missed.
Kroc solved the dilemma by discovering a hidden opportunity within the problem of limited restaurants. He decided to turn a small number of financially successful restaurants into a huge franchise. Later, the business would become the global giant named McDonald's Corporation.
