Disney+ have some lofty goals for platform growth - 260 million subscribers by 2024.
Background: Disney+ have some lofty goals for platform growth. They want to have 260 million subscribers by 2024. Right now, they're on 118 million.
What happened: Former CEO Bob Iger - who left Disney+ in 2020 - hit Disney+ with some truth bombs. He reckons the company needs more volume, meaning, content...for more people...across more demographics.
What else: So...we think he's talking about content diversification.
💡When it comes to content, there are a few things companies need to consider: originality, exclusivity and diversification. But it's really that third one that's key.
💡Diversifying content can help companies reach new target markets, which ultimately helps them generate more revenue. So far, Disney+ has clung to its old faithfuls: Marvel, Star Wars, and family-friendly films.
💡This means for people who haven't already subscribed to Disney+...there really isn't any incentive to do so. But if they diversify their content...they may be able to give new audiences an incentive to subscribe.
