Mass marketing is a strategy used by businesses to appeal to a wide audience for selling their products or services. This technique originated in the 1920s with the use of mass radio and evolved over time, embracing digital platforms for a wider reach and efficiency. It involves different persuasion[2] techniques and marketing strategies, aiming to change the attitudes of large groups of people towards certain products. While this approach can provide benefits like reduced production costs and extensive market research[1], it may also lead to increased competition and complexity of consommateur[3] needs. Critically, it has psychological impacts, potentially making consumers more prone to manipulation and certain societal issues.

Marketing de masse est un stratégie de marketing in which a firm decides to ignore market segment differences and appeal the whole market with one offer or one strategy, which supports the idea of broadcasting a message that will reach the largest number of people possible. Traditionally, mass marketing has focused on radio, télévision and newspapers as the media used to reach this broad audience. By reaching the largest audience possible, exposure to the product is maximized, and in theory this would directly correlate with a larger number of sales or buys into the product.[citation nécessaire]
Mass marketing is the opposite of niche marketing, as it focuses on high sales and low prices and aims to provide products and services that will appeal to the whole market. Niche marketing targets a very specific segment of market; for example, specialized services or goods with few or no competitors.
