About New Moon

Hi, I’m Emily Thurston.

With nearly 20 years of marketing experience, I help small businesses outshine their corporate competitors. As a fellow small business owner, you can trust that I am always on your side.

New Moon Believes:

  • Authenticity Beats Big Budgets: Your business doesn’t need a massive budget to win—just consistent, strategic visibility in your local community.

  • Simple is Better: No corporate buzzwords, temporary fads, or endless contracts.

  • Empowerment Over Reliance: Replace marketing chaos with a clear, budget-friendly strategy putting you in control.

Think of New Moon as your temporary marketing director and your ongoing resource. When you’re ready to stop stressing over algorithms and get back to doing what you love, I’m ready to help build the foundation to do it.
