I. Alternative Courses of Action
- The Walt Disney Company should produce a modern version of other films.
- Provide new characters, shows and other form of entertainments that is not only suitable for kids but for all ages.
- Change the age bracket for their target market in order for the adults to consume their offers too.
- Show people that Disney is one of a kind. Disney should maximize their resources by offering something that will relax the people.
- The company should organize an international contest for the next big feature of Walt Disney.
- Walt Disney Company should add more learning materials such as story books and other forms that can generate revenue without harming its brand because it educates and gives lessons to the children.
II. Recommendations
We recommend to innovate new ideas to expand its limit to open new Amusement Parks and Resorts or Studios for everyone to come and feel the wonderful world of Disney that would lead to change the preferences of its guests and consumers. The company should conduct a survey to their guests that have choices of the Disney's new ideas to know whether it will be a hit or not. We also recommend that the company should have vision and mission statement that would serve as a guide that states their plan and vision for the company and maintain a competitive edge over competitors and to maintain the so called "Magic of Disney".
