The Myna Marketing Origin Story
Now Hawaii’s First AI-Focused Marketing Agency

When we began in 2018, Hawaii’s digital landscape was far behind the mainland. Most local businesses hadn’t yet embraced online marketing, and those who did were forced to choose between large, impersonal corporations or unreliable freelancers. Our CEO, Nick Ponte – born and raised in Upcountry Maui – saw a huge gap: Hawaii needed a marketing agency built for Hawaii that also understood modern technology.

That same drive is what later positioned Myna Marketing at the forefront of the AI revolution.

What started as Nick Ponte Marketing (NPM) has evolved into Myna Marketing, named after the Myna bird: loud, intelligent, strategic, and relentless – just like our approach. As AI began to reshape the marketing world, we moved aggressively, investing early, testing often, and building proprietary processes long before AI SEO and GEO became industry buzzwords.

Today, Myna Marketing stands as Hawaii’s first and leading AI-focused digital marketing agency, helping businesses dominate both traditional search AND AI-powered search results.

Nick’s expertise has been recognized nationwide – Forbes, Inc., YEC, PBN’s Hawaii Business Leader Honoree of the Year – but his mission has always stayed local: Bring world-class digital marketing and cutting-edge AI strategies to Hawaii businesses.

He’s also trained over 50,000 students in digital marketing, sharing insights on AI adoption, automation, and next-gen SEO. His work, including generating millions in sales and earning three Two Comma Club Awards, reflects our agency’s deep technical and strategic foundation.

For many years, Myna Marketing remained intentionally small – an elite, high-performance team focused on mastery over volume. By 2022, AI had reshaped the industry, and we knew Hawaii businesses needed a partner who understood this shift. That’s when we expanded, built a full expert team, and doubled down on our vision.

With our 2024 rebrand to Myna Marketing, we made our mission clear: Lead Hawaii into the new era of AI-powered marketing.

From local businesses to major brands like Maui Ocean Center, Pearl Harbor Oahu, and Maui Babe, our clients trust us because we combine Hawaii market expertise with the most advanced AI tools, strategies, and GEO optimization methods available today.

We continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible. We innovate relentlessly. And we bring AI capabilities to Hawaii businesses that simply didn’t exist before.
