Analysis of Disney’s Marketing Strategy- IP Authorization, Global Localization, and Youth-Oriented Innovation
Abstract
This study offers a thorough examination of The Walt Disney Company's marketing approach, emphasizing how it has developed into a globally integrated system focused on youth-oriented innovation, localization, and intellectual property (IP) empowerment. Disney developed a synergistic economic model that linked experience, product, and content by acquiring Pixar, Marvel, and Lucasfilm. Its STP approach creates emotional bonds between generations by efficiently segmenting consumers based on age and consumption scenarios. Disney's IP authorization as a high-profit engine is further examined in the study, which moves from basic licensing to full-chain brand consultancy. Disney uses cultural customisation to adapt to local markets while maintaining consistent models throughout its global expansion. It uses digitalized, interactive, and socially conscious marketing strategies for Generation Z and Alpha. The results show that Disney's success stems from its steady fusion of innovation, technology, and customer interaction, establishing the company as a representation of creativity, happiness, and enduring brand loyalty.
