This term is commonly used in Brazilian business discourse, particularly in marketing, advertising, and organizational management. It reflects the tension between efficiency (reaching many people quickly) and effectiveness (meeting individual needs). In Portugal, the term is also used in formal business and academic settings. The concept became increasingly scrutinized in the 21st century as companies shifted toward personalization and targeted marketing strategies.
