I love that this book is valuable to large and small businesses. Walt Disney definitely was a successful man. I have no doubt he faced many challenges and felt more than a few failures. I think this book will be a great one to read.

Walt Disney did indeed build an empire. There are arguments both on sides about the pros and cons. This book sounds like it would be helpful even for book reviewers. I'm not so sure about using the scarcity of a product as a marketing tactic. As long as it was scarce, to begin with, then I supposed it is fine. Thanks for your informative and well-written review.

I am not looking into starting or going into business with anyone. But if I were a Disney fan,this would not be for any time of business. I would read up on him because of him.

I'm not an avid reader of non-fiction novels and this book doesn't sound like it will really pique my interest so I'm going to pass on this one. Thanks for the well-written review.

I find the #BOTD to be an interesting view on Walt Disney's positive business points. I have heard many distasteful rumors about Disney and seen unedited cartoon movies that are reputation damaging; I am hopeful for this guide to change my view. Great review.

The book is a helpful resource for entrepreneurs to improve their marketing strategies. Even the best products need appropriate marketing methods to keep them in demand. Learning the time-tested practices of an established and successful company is a step closer to growth, and ultimately, success. Thanks for the insights and recommendation.

At first glance I wasn't too exited by the title of the book, but from the first few chapters of the sample Walt Disney's Way has proven itself to be something that I would enjoy. The author's light and at times humorous style of writing sold me first, but to take the Walt Disney Empire and draw from it principles that small business owners may apply to build successful businesses, I thought was quite ingenious. I only read the first three chapters, but I will be returning shortly to finish reading this book to the end.
