Considering the health and welfare of customers, including those with disabilities, is good business practice making the establishment more attractive ...

1. Who is the target audience for your repurposed product? Why did you choose this audience?

The target audience would consist of the people who plan to go to Disneyland,

particularly the students, children, parents, and tourists. We chose this audience because

they are the ones most likely to visit Disneyland, but since they probably don’t frequent

Disneyland that much or may even be going to Disneyland for the first time, they would

surely be interested to learn more about what they can see and do in Disneyland and how

they can go to the different places within the theme park.

I think I do not have to say that I am not ashamed but proud of it anymore because I have already said it to my friends and acquaintances ...

If his consciousness were to be revived today and placed into another body, he would almost certainly be interested in all the latest developments ...
