I've read that the most sophisticated and successful research operation for buying land on which to site a successful business is McDonald’s. The corporation has developed highly sophisticated matrixes and algorithms based on traffic patterns and population demographics, so when a McDonald’s open up, the franchisee is virtually guaranteed a money machine.

The second-most successful site research is done by Burger King, although a bit less sophisticated than McDonald’s.

Burger King watches McDonald’s, and opens up close by.

The tanning salon I bought is near McDonald's with no other competitive tanning salon nearby.
