Mars the Label follows up its successful event in Manchester with a London variation of the Friends with Mars event. Bringing the experience to the next city, founder Arianna Ajtar engages closely with customers as drinks and bites are served. Attendees have the close experience of personalizing their own pieces with paint, patchwork, gems, and much more.
This is fueled by the brand's focus on word-of-mouth marketing, rooted in its belief that this is the most impactful point of a customer's journey. Ajtar has built her brand to become a loyal community, encouraging an authentic voice for the brand and growth channeled through deep and meaningful relationships which is achieved through community events, timeless designs, inclusive product offerings, and affordable price points.
