Bored Panda got in touch with the team of McSenget to learn more about their page and this initiative. We got curious about how they decide on which pictures are worth to be shared on their page. The creators shared that they have a team that will assess the submissions. "There are certain submissions that were just really funny and were no-brainers. Other times when a team member found a picture to be suspicious, or contentious of being “senget”, the team would discuss it over our team chat. Sometimes even putting up for a vote!"
The founders of McSenget's Instagram page revealed that they used to receive 20 submissions per day at their peak, but it had been relatively quiet these days. Nowadays they get around 2 or 3 posts in a week.
We asked the team whether they noticed any trends or common issues with the quality of McDonald's burgers. They answered that they do observe a significant drop in submissions "if that’s any indication of improvement in alignment quality. But it could mean that people no longer find “senget” burgers funny. But as a regular customer, I do observe that the burgers I personally receive tend to be very much improved. So kudos to McDonald’s and their staff!"
When it comes to the future, the team of McSenget's Instagram page doesn't really have specific plans. Mainly because the team each has a full-time job of their own. "Mcsenget is pretty much managed as a hobby at the moment as it’s fun for us! We barely broke even from our first line of T-shirts, but it was still a fun experience that we’re grateful for! As for plans to cover other restaurants, we did think about it, but we were cautious to implement this content strategy as it might dilute our McCore. But it’s definitely something still on the table for discussion if the team has time to expand on it. Ultimately, we’d be happy to expand our content as long as our fans enjoy it!"
