We can never overcome competition. Competitors will always be competitive. They need to compete whatever it takes to gain the market share. It is how the business world works. It is a fact.

Unfortunately there is no way you are going to avoid competition in any business that you do but you can try as much as possible to be the best of what you are doing so that customers will always choose your product.

To outsmart your competitors, you need to do a competitive analysis. Identify the strengths and weaknesses of your competitors relative to yours. Value the patronage of your loyal customers by offering nice surprises such as small gifts or special discounts on birthday. Most important of all, always offer quality products and excellent customer service.

I think the pricing system should be taken into consideration because when you sell at a competitive price, it will be better.

One of the best ways to overcome competition in a business is through niche marketing. Niche marketing means you market your products to a certain segment of the market and in crease the chances of selling more.
