A Study on Marketing Strategies of Trendy Apparel Brands Based on the 4P Model: The Case of Stussy

Abstract

This study utilizes the classic marketing 4P model (Product, Price, Place, Promotion) as an analytical framework to examine the marketing strategies and their effectiveness of the streetwear brand Stussy in the global market. Through a systematic analysis incorporating quantitative methods, including regression analysis of pricing elasticity and statistical modeling of consumer demand patterns, this paper reveals how Stussy maintains brand influence and consumer loyalty amidst intense market competition. The mathematical models demonstrate that Stussy sustains product competitiveness through classic items and high-end collaborations, with a calculated price elasticity of -1.2 indicating optimal pricing positioning. The brand covers the global market via a multi-channel distribution network optimized through network analysis algorithms and enhances brand heat through community marketing and limited releases modeled by queuing theory. However, facing competition from emerging brands and increasing consumer demand for innovation, Stussy needs to further strengthen design innovation and digital experiences. This study provides theoretical reference and practical insights into the marketing strategies of trendy apparel brands through mathematical modeling approaches.
