1) Explain the difference between a targeted marketing strategy and a mass marketing strategy.

2) What are the advantages of utilizing a targeted marketing strategy?

Expert Solution
Step 1

1)

 

A targeted marketing strategy is a strategy that aims at smaller and defined target segments. It produces more accurate results in comparison to mass marketing. On the contrary, mass marketing strategy refers to a strategy wherein a company decides to ignore the differences in the market segment and appeal to the entire market with a single strategy or offer. It makes the broadest appeal possible and thus the result obtained using this strategy can become diluted.
