EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Carnival of Joy (C.O.J), will establish a quality theme amusement park in Gurgaon, Haryana, to present Indian culture to the Indians and the world The park is designed to create a quality culture experience for families and customers of all ages. It will offer its customers an attractive, economical and fun-filled facility for their entertainment and enjoyment. The forerunner to the Carnival of Joy is the 4-D animated shows of mythological characters like Hanuman, Ganesha, Krishna and Ramayana which brings more advanced technology of animations and hi-tech rides into the business. Our business model is based on the Synergy of retail and entertainment. As we will have strategic alliances with different shopping malls and food providers, so that our customers can shop from different outlets like Pantaloons, Westside,Lifestyle,Shopper’s stop,PVR and satisfy their hunger with the help of food court ,that will include Mc Donalds,Pizza Hut, Punjabi by nature, Café coffee day, and KFC It will generate Tickets for rides and theatre = 60% – Shopping = 20% – Food outlets = 20% The Carnival of Joy will be located on 70 acres with an additional five acres dedicated for parking. The area will be completely fenced and have a single-entry admission for all as the primary revenue source. Customers will not be allowed to bring their own food or drink into the park but will have access to a variety of food and drink concessions at a fair price. Whereas the other amusement parks just provide fun rides to children, we would provide the rides as secondary to some theme stories on characters of mythology from our culture. It is not only about children but also families who can spend their time in shopping and leisure. The park will also encourage tourism as it depicts the country’s heritage culture to the world. C.O.J has engaged leading experts to help plan and develop the park. Senior management has been a member of the Indian Amusement Park Association for 25 years and has attended all of their conventions to learn about the latest product technology, water safety training, marketing and operational issues. In its first year, the

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS Given the surge in India's middle classes, the family entertainment and amusement sector of the India economy holds out promise for investors, both domestic and foreign. • As at the start of 2001, this industry incorporated an investment of Rs. 1,000 crore (1 crore = 10 million). • Between 2001-04, the industry is expected to grow three-fold in terms of both number of parks and total investment intake. • Between 2001 and 2005, an estimated 400 new parks in this category are expected to be built all over India. • However, as at the start of 2001, there were no rules specific to the development of amusement parks. Businesses wanting to enter this sector had to get as many as 19 renewable no-objection certificates annually. • There is no legally defined requirement of area for amusement parks in India. But, the general norm is that a population centre of six million people can be served with an a park covering an area of 40-60 acres • Foreign direct investment (FDI) in India's amusement parks sector is inhibited by low gate fees (currently varying between Rs 30-250 per person. In some parks, such as Essel World and Water Kingdom (85 acres) in Mumbai, the gate fee is on the higher side but most games (expect the water games) are covered by it. In contrast, Calcutta's Nicco Park (40 acres) has a relatively low gate fee but many of the games are separately charged. • Foreign companies reportedly interested in the Indian amusement parks market include Universal Studios, Time Warner and Disney. • According to the Indian Association of Amusement Parks and Industries, a park can be profitable if revenues from gate collections and other sources (such as food, toy memorabilia sales) reach a 50:50 ratio. However, in Essel World and Water Kingdom in Mumbai, the ratio still stands at 70:30 in favor of gate collections. •

8

Entry Barriers The primary barrier to the company is controlled by four factors: 1. Cost of land 2. Location proximity of available land to the market area 3. General community support for the amusement park. 4. Permit process that includes environmental impact, traffic and sound studies that could become a three to five year process from the time the site is identified. The likelihood of an additional amusement park locating in an area that is already covered marketing wise is remote at best.

Market Share: The market share for theme amusement park will be dependent upon the effectiveness of the marketing plans and customer databases. Essel world and Calcutta's Nicco Park both have a customer base for Water Park sales. C.O.J has a customer base through rides, movies and shopping complex and a limited database from the same facility. The advantage for the first three years will favor our competition. C.O.J intends to level the playing field with an aggressive advertising and promotion budget

MARKETPLACE ANALYSIS Target Market/ Customer base There is a surge in India's middle class and increasing disposable incomes, the family entertainment and amusement sector of the Indian economy. The leisure market has a current consumer size of 30 million people and is growing at a rate of 10-12 percent per annum. The developments planned now are incorporating an element of fun and avenues where the whole family can spend time together. With increasing disposable income and with surplus time for recreation, Indians are spending more on amusement activities. Also, Indians are now traveling abroad with increasing frequency and experiencing quality entertainment and leisure facilities there. The target market will include: • Children and teenagers • Families • Tourists • Business customers Characteristics of target market: • Children and teenagers • Families • Tourists The demographics, age and income characteristics of the guests, follow attraction mix, and vice versa. All age groups, and includes both male and female. Geographic location: Near Delhi, NCR Characteristics of target market: • Business customers • Retail and food industry • Both small scale and large scale

Customer buying habits: Amusement park business is highly dependent on weather conditions; it will have lowest sales in rainy season. Also in season time there will be higher sales on weekends rather than on weekdays. It will also not follow a regular buying pattern, as it is a leisure activity. The average expenditure of the target customer is approximately in range of Rs 25000 above/ month.

COMPETITIVE STRATEGY – Whereas the other amusement parks just provide fun rides to children, we would provide the rides as secondary to some theme stories on characters of mythology from our culture, with latest technology such as 4-D effect. – It is not only about children but also families who can spend their time in shopping and leisure. – The park will also encourage tourism as it depicts the country’s heritage culture to the world.

RISKS AND CONTINGENCIES There are unseen risks to all the amusement parks and carnival rides. Thousands of injury and accidents happen at carnival rides and amusement park rides. An amusement park accident can happen from poor construction plans, defective construction of the ride, from an employee error, bad training and even negligence. Safety devices can and do fail also causing amusement ride accidents. Fear is the stock in trade of many theme parks, where children and adults relish the thought of being scared to death by gravity-defying rides. But the fright is all in fun. Visitors leave their real world worries at the gate. Behind the scenes, however, park managers are aware of all the threats that could keep the good times from rolling. And they have prepared contingency plans for each. For a theme park, the range of potential disasters is large. Natural disasters, such as sudden storms, tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes, represent one aspect of the threatscape. Mechanical problems, such as when a fast-moving roller coaster malfunctions, leaving children stranded upside-down, are another. Other threats include fires or a bomb scare that could cause panic and a stampede. Even an emergency at a nearby factory could create problems, resulting in the need to evacuate tens of thousands of visitors from the park. Whatever the emergency, any financial effects can have long-term ramifications because, given the amusement industry's seasonal nature, lost business days are not easily recouped. Even worse, damage to a facility's reputation could be fatal. To keep an amusement park from becoming a house of horrors, management needs to develop a comprehensive contingency plan, which in the industry is referred to as an emergency response or emergency action plan. As with any other industry's plan, the goal is to set out how the staff should respond to an event in an efficient and professional manner while minimizing the impact to the business operation. In most facilities, the security, safety, risk, or loss prevention manager reports directly to the general manager, ensure that he or she always has the ear of the facility's executives. Their assistance and input is critical to the completion and success of the plan. Getting amusementfacility managers to buy in to security is not difficult, however. Because the industry is so unforgiving, safety and emergency planning are considered even before the facility is built; everyone, from the owners and developers on down, understands that these issues must be addressed to create a successful venture. Threat assessment: The first step in creating an emergency response plan is to conduct a threat assessment. Managers from across the enterprise should be involved in this process, including the head of the food service department and the director of maintenance. The threat assessment starts with the obvious threats to a business such as fire, robbery, and power outage. Depending on geographic location, threats such as earthquakes, tornadoes, and flooding may also be considered.

21

Nearby businesses and existing infrastructure must be taken into account as well. An airport, chemical factory, or nuclear power plant in the vicinity presents risks that must be factored into the assessment. Train tracks or a highway frequented by tractor-trailers even several miles from the park may also present danger from hazardous materials spills. In addition, like other businesses that attract enormous crowds, theme parks must consider crimes such as kidnappings, shootings, and fights. When It "Rains" on Parade What you might do to make the crowd safer: • • •

• •

Limit the speed of motorized vehicles in your parade to 10 mph. Restrict drivers (including clowns on bicycles or unicycles) from weaving or swerving towards the crowd. Forbid throwing of candies, toys, trinkets or other items into the crowd, or only permit entrants walking along the curb to hand out such items, to prevent small children from running onto the parade route. Require that animals be under control at all times: those riding on floats must be tethered to the float; experienced equestrians must handle horses. Bar fireworks, starter pistols and canon; moderate the level of amplified sound effects and music, which can startle animals or drivers.

What you might do to make entrants safer: • • • • • • • •

Limit the length, height and width of floats to dimensions that accommodate the route's street widths, turns, bridge clearances and overhanging branches. Require all decorations be fire retardant. Insist that each float carry a fire extinguisher. Require that floats carrying people to have secured handrails that riders must grasp at all times, and that no one extend arms or legs beyond the edges of the float. Prohibit anyone in the parade from using alcohol or drugs prior or during the event and from smoking anywhere near floats or costumes in the staging area or during the event. Require that vehicles be in good mechanical condition. Specify there must be two unimpeded, quick exits from the vehicle for the driver. Monitor weather conditions and make adjustments as needed.

Races that may run wild What you might do to level the playing field: • • •

Find out what laws pertain to your event and make certain that you follow the laws' intent. Verify that there is handicapped parking and how close it is to the event entrance. Make certain the terrain between parking space and entrance is accessible: smooth pavement, ramps or elevators.

22

• •

Require handicapped-accessible bathroom facilities. Set up registration tables at a height convenient for those seated or standing.

What you might do to make the marathon route safer: • • •



Work with a local runners club to map out the best route for your competition. Publicize the route well in advance and publish/post a map of the route with start and end times on the day before the race. Enlist the help of local law enforcement to block streets intersecting with the route and to direct traffic elsewhere and clear the route of all parked vehicles the night before the event. Assign a lead vehicle to proceed the front runners by and eighth of a mile and a "sweep" vehicle to trail the last runners by the same distance.

What you might do to improve safety in a high-risk event. • • • • •

Decide whether or not the event is worth the risks. Prepare for how you will respond should the risks materialize and whom you can call on for help. Develop a set of criteria for when to postpone or cancel the event. Provide onsite medical care, as well as procedures for transporting people to offsite care. Require appropriate personal protective equipment be worn and competitors to train for a specified length of time or to a specified level for the event.

2. The Walt Disney Company-a case study The Walt Disney Company was funded in 1922, and has became a world leader in family entertainment. Today, the company is operating on a multinational level, and has over 58,000 employees world wide, and over 189,000 share holders. What are the factors that contributed to the company's successes and failures on its way towards becoming the World's largest family entertaining company? I would like to answer the stated question by analyzing the following four factors;  (1) Disney's industry in relation toPorter's Five-Forces Model,  (2) the strengths and the weaknesses and the opportunities and the threats that the company is facing (a SWOT analysis),  (3) the corporate-level strategy and finally, financial trend for the years 1989 through 1991. In addition, I would like to deliberate on the strategic changes and tactical changes that are needed to be made at the Walt Disney Company. Porter's-Five-Forces Model focuses on the external environment that the company has to be able to cope with. The first force to be discussed is the threat of new entrants. Since the Disney company has been able to find a very distinctive niche in the industry, the entrance barriers are relatively high. The company has been able to grow over a long period of time, and has developed from within the departments of Research and development, marketing, and finance. By relying on past experience, company officials know to a large extent what the target customer wants. As Disney pretty much dominates the family entertainment market, it will be very difficult for such a new organization to develop brand recognition/identification, and product differentiation. Disney has focused of market diversification for years and the company covers a wide array of products and services. Being a market leader has made it possible for the company to practice effective economies of scale in production. For example, over 500,000 copies of the

25

Videocassette "Pinocchio" was sold in only two months, and has 20-30 million visitors to its theme parks every year. In addition, extremely large amounts of capital investment is required for new entrants into the industry. The capital requirements are extremely high. For instance, Disney spent USD3.6 billion in its European theme park (Euro Disneyland). Only very large companies can meet such large capital requirement. Lastly, the government policy towards the industry appears to be very favorable. The French government invested USD 1.2 billion (40%) in Euro Disneyland, provided public transportation facilities, provided a large tax relief (from 18.6% to 7%) on the cost of goods sold. The bargaining power of customers is high in the service and in the entertainment industry. Since a large number of customers are needed to make Disney's operations run smoothly, the customers have certain powers. For instance, if the price on a particular home video is too high, customers may be reluctant to spending the money needed to purchase the product. Another example is the entrance fee charged at Disney's theme parks. It is stated in the case that the maximum amount of money that customers are willing to pay is USD 33. Furthermore, the entertainment industry does not save the buyer money. Instead it is designed in a way that it will make the buyer spend more. A majority of Disney's product mix focuses on intangible returns on the buyer's money. The case that some customers may not realize that they are getting such a return may increase the bargaining power of the customers. The bargaining power of suppliers is moderate. As the Disney company is operating in a highly differentiated and unique industry with high switching costs associated with operations, the suppliers are dominated by a few companies and is most probably very concentrated. However, Disney is a unique and important customer of many of the suppliers. Furthermore, the size of the company may certainly be a great advantage. By being able to order large volumes of unique products from unique suppliers, will create a dependency relationship in the industry. The threat of substitute products or services is moderate to low. Obviously, other cartoon figures, theme parks, and movies can penetrate the market in which Disney is operating in, but I do not believe that this is representing a significant threat. The Disney company has already placed price ceilings on many of its product lines, and should be able to compete with new competitors. However, the threat alone of new entrants into the market requires Disney to hedge against such risk by concurrently upgrading products and services. . External opportunities should be recognized, analyzed, and responded to in a very early stage. The Disney company is facing several external opportunities, however, presently I believe that the external threats facing the company are out-numbering the opportunities. Opportunities includes the following; Positive government attitudes towards its operations, Barriers of entry are significant, and the entertainment industry itself. Legal and legislative forces are usually identified as being negative external factors to a company. Ironically, in Disney's case, the French government contributed greatly in the Euro Disneyworld project. The French government invested over USD 1.2 billion in the project, built communication facilities, and gave Disney tax relief's on cost of goods sold accounts. In

addition, since the barriers of entry into the highly specialized industry in which Disney is operating, competition will find it difficult to penetrate the company's highly diversified product/service mix. Furthermore, large initial capital investments are required to enter the industry.
