2)Place
Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL attracts visitors
from all over the world, as does Disneyland in California.
However, Disney realized they could grow their business if
they offered their product to other marketplaces outside of
the USA. As a result, Disney developed country specific
theme parks and delivered them to these marketplaces.
Disney built a Disneyland Paris, a Tokyo Disney and most
recently a Hong Kong Disneyland. These parks bring in many
visitors, as well as many repeat visitors who would not have
traveled to the USA. Disney has increased their marketplace
and expanded their brand worldwide by building these
country specific theme parks. Your Internet business can
again follow this business principle and do it with less of an
investment. It’s as easy as developing your site in other Goofy
languages and then submitting your site to search engines in
those languages.

3) Promotion
Walt Disney World is always advertising. They do
not start, stop and then start again. They have a marketing
budget and plan that’s designed to keep their message in
front of audiences. You regularly see their ads on TV, in print
publications, on the Internet and I’ve even gotten their ads on
grocery store coupon print-outs! Disney also continually sends
direct mail pieces to past customers with varying offers.
Disney’s promotions are designed to keep them in your mind.
So when it’s time for vacationing, you think of going to Disney
World or perhaps another (undefined) destination. But as
Disney has kept itself in your awareness it is always a
consideration. Other vacation destination have not
Donald Duck established themselves nearly as well! Your Internet business
should consider the advantage of continuous promotion.

Disney is never complacent. They are always
growing, building, expanding and improving. With their existing
theme parks they continuously work to add in new attractions
and shows. They update old outdated rides, as well as
refurbish and modernize long standing favorites. Disney is
constantly creating new products to sell. The most well known
of their products are their movies. Disney studios is always
working to create new motion pictures. Constantly making and
releasing movies to the marketplace brings in consistent profits
for Disney. In addition, Disney further leverages their movies
by creating products – dolls, toys, games, etc -. as well as
incorporating them into their theme park attractions. The
synergy Disney has developed between their theme parks and Pluto
their movies, helps drive movie sales in theaters as well as on
dvds, leads to increased sales of their dolls, toys, games, etc,
and continues to bring visitors to the parks.

8. Segmenting, Targeting and
Positioning
According to the marketing process of segmenting, targeting and positioning,
it is crucial that Disney select profitable segments in order to be success in their
operations. After identify the most worthwhile target market, the company should
be able to provide them additional value that competitors cannot provide. By
following this principle, Disney must then position itself basis on the targeted
customers' demands. Therefore, the consumers are being regarded as the driving
force behind Disney, and setting positioning strategies which can fit properly with its
marketing mix is the key element of successful marketing process. Another part of
marketing mix that is affected by Disney Studio's positioning strategy is the
presentation utilized by the company, it is especially important for service sector.
The physical environment is instrumental in customers' assessment of the quality
and level of service they can expect, for Disney Studio, in fact, the physical
environment is part of the product itself. As the two founders, Walt and Roy
believed that they had to always stay one step ahead of the competition.

12. Promotion mix
• The Walt Disney Company is very strong in entertainment and animation, the two
areas do fairly well in the global market, but just because a company has its
strengths doesn't mean its going to successfully sell its product without
advertising.
• Advertising is essential because let's face it, without advertising we wouldn't know
about half the products we use. In this case we are talking about Disney's
animated films, therefore Disney uses product advertising which is a form of
advertisement that touts the benefits of a specific good or service.
• In order to advertise a product, a company must first select an advertising appeal
which identifies a reason for a person to buy a product. Disney uses the "Fun and
Pleasure“ appeal to advertise their animated films. Next, the company must
choose a style to execute their message. Disney uses the "Mood or Image"
executional style for advertising which builds a mood or image around the product
such as love, happiness, or inspiration.
• For example, whenever you feel a certain emotion after watching a Disney movie
trailer, that's their "Mood or Image" tactics working on you.

13. • After the company has established how they are going to advertise, they must
determine which types of media will best communicate the benefits of their
product or service to the target audience and when and for how long the
advertisement will run, this is called media planning. Disney advertises through
newspapers, their own radio station - 1560 AM ©Radio Disney, television, internet,
and outdoor media. Of course each media type has its advantages and
disadvantages, but because Disney has such a powerful brand name and history,
they end up having more benefits than losses.
• Due to this powerful image, Disney can sell almost anything by just putting one of
their famous animated characters on the product. For example, because Disney
had teamed up with McDonald's and Mattel toy makers many years ago, each
time it comes out with a new film they simply let Mattel make toys out of their
characters of the upcoming film who distribute the toys to McDonald's who
advertises them with their Happy Meal for kids, which brings Disney more fame
and customers. As a result, the child begs the parent to take him or her to the
movie theater to watch the new Disney film the child now knows of just by eating
McDonald's.
