This is the best thing to do, cause these people already have an advantage in the fact that they where there before you and already have a customer base. So if you want to succeed, you need to find out the areas they are lacking and build on that.

Our competitors are sometimes Killing our business. It's better if we can always monitor their plans to avoid disgusts like what you experienced. That competitor might have suffered losses because of his insanity reducing the price of his goods Hoping you were able to get back at that person.

Sometimes I feel I don't have problem with my competitors in business but I just need to make sure I satisfy my customer because once I can satisfy my customer in quality and price then the competitors already fail

It is indeed needed for them to do this. If not, it would be a big problem once the business is launched.

Study your competition to exploit gaps and not to copy what they are doing. You can't be authentic that way.
