FREAKISHLY LOYAL CUSTOMERS1)All theming, all the time
Disney’s theming is more than a few cartoon faces on side of rides. Its immersive, complete and, in its own cheesier-than-France way, kind of classy.

2)IMMERSION
Fans keep coming because
there is always more to see.
Disney’s moto isn’t “lots of
rides”, it is
“The Happiest Place on
Earth”

3)Everyone’s a princess
Cast members give children
badges and balloons at random;
princesses stop to greet little
girls dressed in princess gear;
guests are allowed to “Captain”
the jungle cruise and Mark
Twain riverboat,

4)Mining the Mythos
Disneyland’s greatest product is its
own mythology. The running of
the park maybe too tawdry for the
public eye, but the story of the
park is trumpeted everywhere.

THE FOUR P’s
Products-Wide variety of products from tangible goods at stores to experience at
their theme parks.
The use of wide variety of characters across their products solidifies their
customer-brand relationship.

2)Pricing
Disney keeps its prices just
on the border of affordable.
The strategy is to make the
price just high enough to
ensure that each experience
is unique since it is
infrequent.

3)Place/Distribution
Disney distributes its products
in areas with high amount of
people in order to make their
brand more familiar and
available to consumers. Theme
parks located in well known
areas like Florida, California,
Paris and Tokyo.

4)Promotion
Disney succeed in this area
especially in low peaks of the
year. Promotion such as low
price rooms, free or reduced
tickets and items are highly
utilized strategies of disney.
