About Mynt Agency

Mynt helps growth brands turn video and audio into measurable acquisition channels. We plan, buy, and measure across CTV, linear TV, YouTube, podcasts, streaming audio, and radio, with a specific focus on using premium media more efficiently than traditional agencies and proving the business impact through attribution, lift testing, and incrementality. We work with amazing brands including Oats Overnight, Grüns, Liquid Death, Prenuvo, and many more.

The broader Mynt story is simple: we have generated $3bn+ in incremental client revenue, have 5.5+ years of average client tenure, and average 4x ROAS on evergreen campaigns. We are not a generic media agency.
