Competition-based pricing is a strategy where businesses set prices by analyzing competitors' pricing. It involves market analysis, positioning products relative to rivals, and adapting to changes in the competitive landscape. This approach can attract price-conscious consumers and aid new market entrants, but it also carries risks like price wars and potential legal issues.
