In this episode, recorded while I'm preparing for IMPACT 2026, I'm continuing my deep dive into business and marketing lessons from the House of Mouse. Using real examples from Disney parks, hotels, and dining experiences, I break down how world-class businesses maximise customer value without it feeling pushy or salesy. I explore why offering premium upsells isn't about squeezing more money out of clients — it's about giving them better choices.
