you have to tune the reporting queries eventually.
this is not a simple process, as you need to check the queries of the one that "block" the others as they run long time, and use (block) resources long time.
if you have a reporting on the OLTP database, you might consider to replicate the users database to a reporting database, so you separate the OLTP transactions completely from the reporting queries.
depending on what reporting you have, it could be a daily full backup + restore, or indeed a full transactional replication.
