According to the Effies, the Index analyzes finalist and winner data from the annual North American Effie competition. It reveals the most effective agencies and "provides an insightful glimpse into which ones are actually delivering ideas that work here and across the globe."

Rob Rivenburgh, CEO, The Mars Agency North America, said of the win: "The Effies Effectiveness Index features those agencies who most effectively drive results for their clients. It's one thing to win awards, but it's an honor to be among the few distinguished agencies that have been the most effective business partners for their clients. It's another validation of our agency purpose, to drive sustainable growth for our clients, company, employees and community."

This notable 2017 Effies Award comes on the heels of five new business wins for The Mars Agency and its selection as a Who's Who in Shopper Marketing Agencies by Shopper Marketing magazine and the Path to Purchase Institute for a sixth consecutive year.
