In general, there are two types of competitive advantage a firm can pursue: low cost or uniqueness. Using a low-cost strategy, a firm simply tries to have lower costs than the marginal producer in the industry.

A uniqueness strategy usually entails offering products of higher quality or with more features than other products in the marketplace.
