Mr. Best Burger Business

After its launch in 2020, the popular Youtuber, along with Ghost Kitchen Virtual Dining Concepts, launched the MrBeast Burger brand, which is currently embroiled in a scandal due to recent negative reviews due to the low quality of its burgers.

Given this, Jimmy Donaldson sued the company, accusing it of “irreparably damaging its reputation” and only seeking expansion at the expense of its image rather than focusing on the quality of the products.

The lawsuit included 85 pages of negative comments and photos of burgers that looked bad, “inedible” and even “disgusting” because of an ongoing problem with raw or undercooked meat.

With this lawsuit, Donaldson is seeking to terminate the contract with this company, which warrants that the preparation of food sold at MrBeast Burger is “a poor reflection of the MrBeast trademark.”

Likewise, it was learned that the legal document states that he “has spent years developing his brand to make it one of the most valuable brands in the world, and it was a key element of his deal that he maintained strict control over the use of his name, image, likeness.”

But, the YouTuber isn’t the only one suing, as Virtual Dining Concepts has filed a counterclaim alleging that Donaldson failed to comply with his contractual obligations, particularly advertising and promotion, by not publicly supporting MrBeast Burger, as well as making “false and offensive” statements that would It ruins the reputation of the burger.

These lawsuits lead the brand to bad reviews, which leave a bad opinion to the world’s consumers, so the company’s reputation is deteriorating all over the world.

There are many influencers who are dedicated to building businesses, as an example in Mexico is Luisito Comunica, which registers a large number of brands, which can range from services to food and others.

This is how a personal brand can be turned into a business, but if not managed, it can affect the creator’s brand.
