You are right about this. But you should be able to deal with competition as well. You don't just be at the forefront because there is a high demand, you have to do some certain things to improve your customer base and sales. Do what your competitors are not, check what they are not offering in terms of services as well, your customer relationship must be top notch, you should make sure you act quickly and rationally on feedback from your customers.
