Never underestimate the Netflix audience\nIt's not smart to bet against Netflix. It doesn't make a move unless it has thoroughly thought things through. How many times were we asking Netflix to rent video games by mail during its red envelope days? How many analysts have wondered about the money that Netflix could rake in it if sold ads on top of its streams in this era of rising connected-TV rates?\nNetflix is way smarter than me. It may also be smarter than you when it comes to how it runs its business.

If they see the light of day -- as we're seeing with consumer product -- it's because the company knows what it's doing.\nNetflix had 207.6 million subscribersat the end of March, and we're talking about entire families here. The reach and breadth is larger than the account base. It's a captive audience spending hours a day getting lost in Netflix's growing digital catalog of content.\nFolks trust Netflix to get it right. They stick around, even if it means prices keep moving higher. Netflix has increased its monthly rates in the U.S.five times over the last seven years, and the sub count is always higher by the time the next hike rolls around.\nNetflix is a media stock. It's not a surprise that traditional media behemoths are generating significant sums of incremental revenue through vibrant consumer product sales. Why wouldn't Netflix -- a company that's been collecting gobs of data on your viewing habits for years -- be as good at nailing what you'll want to buy next as it is at knowing what you want to view next? We may never see a theme park, though I would be the first in line through the turnstiles of Netflixlandia to ride theOzarkroller coaster or experience theStranger Thingsdark ride. Selling unique merch to an engaged audience will be a lot easier, and unlike thatOzarkcoaster there are no height requirements or seat restraints to keep you from making the most of the consumer products ride.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":169718064,"gmtCreate":1623850823058,"gmtModify":1634027109140,"author":{"id":"3581571807225162","authorId":"3581571807225162","name":"Anneater","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dd99ef969b35027be1194d21c5482e54","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3581571807225162","authorIdStr":"3581571807225162"},"htmlText":"Cool","listText":"Cool","text":"Cool","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/169718064","repostId":1137428482,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1137428482","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623815725,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1137428482?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-16 11:55","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Reasons Netflix Will Win Its Merchandising Gambit","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1137428482","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The leading premium streaming video service has an online store.
