Competitor Analysis
H&M AB Company is the major competition to Betsey Johnson LLC. Because Betsey Johnson is now an entity of Steve Madden Inc., she must therefore compete with Madden’s competitors.
While H&M and its affiliates continue to open retail stores, Betsey Johnson is at a disadvantage.
The closest direct competitor as part of Steve Madden Inc. is Michael Kors, but Betsey’s whimsi-cal style is risky for competitors to imitate.

ConclusionBetsey Johnson has been a fashion icon for decades. It’s time to bring a new sense of sophistication to her well-known name.
While “the name speaks for itself,” it should also say new, fresh, and full of attitude. Betsey’s new image should add more excitement. Let go of a little pink and grow.
