6. Micro environmental factor effect
The micro-environment of a business includes the factors in the immediate area
of operation affecting its performance and decision making freedom.
They include competitors, customers, distribution channels, suppliers, and the
public. These factors affect the performance of the business in several ways and
understanding them is important for strategy formulation.

7. Customer analysis

8. • The secondary segment is considered secondary because they have
already experienced the traditional Disney atmosphere.
• Disney strives to cater to small children who have not experienced
the initial thrill of Disney like the primary market has.
• Disney’s primary and secondary target markets are very trusting of
Disney’s brand due to its exceptional customer service and wide array
of offerings that satisfy both segments wants, needs, and desires.
• With their transformation in design, quality, and product innovation;
Disney has been able to improve consumer perceptions of their brand
significantly.

9. Competitor analysis

Warner(TWC), 21st century Fox(FOX), Sony(SNE),

DVD/Blue-ray, video games and the internet.

13. Porter’s five forces model

14. 1. The bargaining power of buyers is relatively high mainly due to low
switching costs.
2. The bargaining power of suppliers is relatively low.
3. The threat of new entrants is also very low as the entry barriers are very
high due to immense capital requirements.
4. The threat of substitutes is rather high for the whole industry as there are a
lot of other activities a family can do in their free-time like visiting
museums, go hiking in National Parks, going to cinemas or making
vacations abroad.
5. The rivalry within the industry is intense as customers have low switching
costs.

15. Macro environmental factor effect
There are mainly six factors (PESTLE) which determine the external marketing environment and over
which marketers have little control:

16. Political factor:
Policies and governmental actions are evaluated in this component of the PESTEL/PESTLE
analysis framework. In this business analysis of The Walt Disney Company, such remote or
macro-environmental factors pertain to the political climate affecting merchandise trade and
entertainment access. For example, intellectual property policies impact the global business. In
the entertainment, mass media, and amusement park industry environment, the following
political external factors influence Disney’s strategic management:
1. Stronger intellectual property protection (opportunity)
2. Shifting free trade policies (threat and opportunity)
3. Stable political conditions in major markets (opportunity)
Political external factors create opportunities to improve the conglomerate’s business
performance in the global market.

17. Economic factor:
This component of the PESTEL/PESTLE framework assesses the economic trends that shape
the remote or macro-environment. Disney’s case involves diverse economic conditions,
considering the multinational reach of the business. Many of the relevant economic external
factors reflect the American industry environment, which is the company’s main source of
revenues.
The Walt Disney Company’s strategic management success depends on the economic
conditions linked to the following external factors:
1. Rapid economic development of developing markets (opportunity)
2. Increasing levels of disposable incomes (opportunity)
3. Slowing growth of the Chinese economy (threat)

18. Politiical and legal factor:
Social And Culture Factor:
The focus of this component of the PESTEL/PESTLE analysis framework is on social trends, which
affect Disney’s remote or macro-environment through customers’ and workers’ behaviors. In this
company analysis case, consumers’ behaviors toward products like movies, television programs, video
games, and amusement parks are considered.
The Walt Disney Company experiences the effects of the following sociocultural external
factors:
1.Favorable attitudes toward leisure (opportunity)
2.Increasing online activity (opportunity)
3.Increasing cultural diversity (threat and opportunity)

19. Technological Factor:
Available technologies are among the remote or macro-environmental factors that define
business capabilities and limitations. This component of the PESTEL/PESTLE analysis of
Disney accounts for technologies used in entertainment and mass media production, as well
as those used to develop Disneyland theme parks and resorts.
The following technological external factors determine many of the strategies and
management efforts at The Walt Disney Company:
1. High R&D rate in the industry (threat and opportunity)
2. Increasing mobile device use (opportunity)
3. Increasing popularity of augmented reality (opportunity)
The technological external factors in this component of the PESTEL/PESTLE analysis of
The Walt Disney Company present growth opportunities in the industry environment.

20. Environmental Factor:
The natural environment imposes limits, threats, and opportunities in the remote or macro-
environment, highlighting business dependence on ecological external factors.
Disney’s management faces strategic challenges related to the following ecological external
factors:
1.Changing and worsening cyclical weather (threat)
2.Increasing availability of renewable energy (opportunity)
3.Increasing industry support for sustainability (opportunity)

21. Legal Factor:
The legal factors evaluated in this component of the PESTEL/PESTLE analysis pertain to the rules
and regulations that apply to the business and its industry environment. In this case of The Walt
Disney Company, such external factors are based on the legal systems that define the leisure and
recreation remote environment. The company’s managers must address regulations based on
different countries and regions involved in the macro-environment.
This component of the PESTEL/PESTLE analysis points to the following legal external
factors that impose limits and requirements on Disney’s global business:
1.Environmental protection law (opportunity)
2.Improving legal protection for consumer rights in developing markets (opportunity)
3.Broadening intellectual property protections (opportunity)
