Mr.narut said “Movie On demand is a movie lover choice,Aafter all this time they maybe have a problem about freetime that was not available to come and watch a movies or miss it on showing times but still want to watch it on cinema. Major Cineplex descry which films that the client desired to re-play when a movies on cinema were enjoy more than watch it on tv. We expected that Movie on demand will help us to increase admission also the base of movie lover. Now a days, Marketing must have a fast adaptation to keep up with the demand also make a new choice that can meet consumer need that help the number and the base of consumer to have more increase. So, Segmentation marketing is a good choice for this solution”
