With tremendous amount of competition targeting the audience, as an organization we need to formulate a strategy that urges user to purchase our product, thereby increasing sales for the business. Furthermore, overall strategy of the company can be at macro-level which might differ as the company penetrate into different geographies like Europe-Africa, Asia-Pacific, Latin America along with establishing strong presence in North America.

eadth of the product line, endorsements and cele
ity associations that can help us to garner more penetration of the
and as well as lead generation in the fan following of the cele
ity.
Second is More Value for Money Strategy - This is our second strategy that we have selected. By the virtue of this strategy, we intend to provide best quality products at least price or at a price much lower than what other companies are offering. This strategy demands to provide ability to incorporate captivating footwear at much lower price relative to the competitors. This strategy can help us to underprice the competitors those have close characteristics and similar attributes
Third is the Market leader approach that urges to focus on the wholesale of the footwear retailer, sales on internet as well as private label footwear to the various chain retailers.
