The Mars Agency Recognized on 2023 Inc. 5000 List of Fastest-Growing Companies

Independently Owned, Global Commerce Marketing Company Joins Inc. Magazine’s Annual List for The First Time

The Mars Agency, an independent, global commerce marketing practice, has been listed on Inc.’s annual Inc. 5000 list, one of the most prestigious rankings of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies.

The recognition marks the first time the company has made this Inc. list. In May, Inc. Magazine named The Mars Agency to its Best Places to Work list, as did Advertising Age in January.

“Being named among Inc. Magazine’s fastest growing companies is a tremendous honor and an acknowledgment of the impact our unique blend of retail intelligence, technology, and commerce solutions has on creating connected commerce experiences that drive shopper conversion for many of the world’s leading brands,” said Rob Rivenburgh, Global CEO of The Mars Agency. “Our mission is to make our clients’ business better today than it was yesterday, which ultimately enables us to deliver on our company’s purpose of growth, growth for our clients, our communities, and our people.”

The Mars Agency is known for creating connected commerce experiences through the combination of the smartest humanity – a team of 750+ Martians – and the latest technology, in the form of its Marilyn commerce marketing technology platform which is threaded through its Commerce Media, Performance Analytics and Ecommerce solutions.

“The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., in light of recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation, hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”

Methodology

Companies on the 2023 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2019 to 2022. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2019. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2019. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2019 is $100,000; the minimum for 2022 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places. The top 500 companies on the Inc. 5000 are featured in Inc. magazine’s September issue. The entire Inc. 5000 can be found at http://www.inc.com/inc5000.
