Hi everyone!
(CAN YOU ALL BELIEVE IT'S SEPTEMBER??? O0O)
(CAN YOU ALL BELIEVE IT'S SEPTEMBER??? O0O)
I am here posting with my new schedule! I can already tell I'm gonna like only posting once a week! It totally gives me the time I need to make quality posts!:)
This post is about what I would do differently if I owned the American Girl company!:D Let's get right on into it-
1. Lower the ding-dang prices
SERIOUSLY. I remember the times when I was younger and dolls only costed like $95 and the furniture was $60, and everything was WAAAYYY cheaper! I would bring it back down to that so more people could afford it. And if more people can afford it, more people will buy it, which means MORE MONEY FOR ME!XD
2. Get the advice of some reputable bloggers
Everyone knows that we bloggers have some amazing ideas that American Girl needs to follow. And I really do think that someone in the AG company does look at some of our blogs because does anyone notice the lack of pink in the most recent releases? That was all of the people who didn't like it getting their voices heard! (So, that means that people need to stop complaining about all of the blue and purple. THERE'S NO PINK SO TRY TO LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE!!!XD)
But since bloggers have such great, creative ideas, I would hire some occasionally to give me ideas to make AG better.:)
3. Clothing...
I have lots of thoughts about AG clothes...I couldn't pin this change down to just one idea. So here are all of my ideas for changes to AG clothes-
More neutrals! I think that having some outfits that include neutrals would be a great idea for more of the older doll collectors. They could still be super cute and fun, but not all colorful.;)
More pieces! Is it just me or do you think that the prices are getting higher, and there seems to sometimes be fewer pieces in the sets? I'd change that!
Things would ACTUALLY go! Yeah, the outfits would actually match or at least compliment the other colors. Because some of the outfits AG has come out with need to have some color changes.XD
4. New face molds
I have no idea if this would be hard, but I would want to do it! Because I am getting a little tired of the classic face mold and Josefina face mold...
Plus, how about they make another doll with the Marie-Grace face mold? Huh? HUH?!
5. Stop. Making. Movies.
I would stop making GOTY movies! They're terribly cheesy most of the time and the acting...*shudders* AND if the American Girl's age is 11, I'd ACTUALLY get an 11 year old to play the part, not a Justice model who looks like she is 14!XD
Adding onto this idea, I would bring back the Historical Character movies. I'd make them like how they used to be made- AMAZING.
6. Character creativity
It can't be just me who thinks that American Girl reuses a lot of the same themes for their dolls (especially GOTY). We've had at least three somewhat tropical Girl of the Years... We've had tons who love horses or animals in general.
I think it's time to get some new ideas!
How about a brainiac who wants to grow up to be an inventor? What about a girl who has a passion to help people who suffer. The story would be all about her helping kids at hospitals or helping out at elderly homes! A girl living in the U.S. who comes from a Mexican heritage, and some family emergency occurs, pulling her out of America and forcing her to go back to Mexico and get in touch with her roots!
These are just some random ideas off of the top of my head, but we could use some diversity for their stories and interests!
7. MAKE YOUR OWN CUSTOM DOLL BOOTH!!!!
I would do this so hard. You would be able to make a custom doll in store and get her within a couple weeks or so! I have no idea how realistic this is, but I would love to do it!:D

So, those are just some ideas I have that might help make the company better. You know, for when I become CEO in 10 years.
Pssssshhh...
I love AG, and this wasn't a post where I could complain, but just some ideas I have.;) I hope you enjoyed!

What kind of changes would YOU make to American Girl if you had the chance?:)
