Moonshot offers a full array of services across government, media, and grassroots organizing. We’re at our best when the stakes are high, and failure is not an option. No firm knows New York better – and no firm can match the expertise, relationships, and record of success we bring our clients.
| GOVERNMENT RELATIONS
+ LOBBYING
Moonshot has valuable government relations experience in both Albany and New York City. No lobbying firm offers a broader network of contacts among the key decision makers in our city and state, and we will craft a holistic strategy to help further your agenda.
Navigating New York Government
Moonshot can help you navigate New York’s complex web of State and local laws, rules, and regulations. We conduct due diligence for businesses unfamiliar with New York’s regulatory climate or for emerging sectors that do not fit neatly into existing systems. Our team reviews current or proposed business models to determine their position within New York’s regulatory framework and will work with you to secure any required permits, licenses, or other government approvals.
Turning Your Ideas Into Action
Moonshot guides companies through the entire legislative and rulemaking processes in New York City and State. We create detailed roadmaps for success by drafting rules or legislation, and navigating any legal or political obstacles. And we help organizations “translate” requests for intervention into language that reaches lawmakers and bureaucrats where they are.
Assessing Risks and Opportunities
Moonshot advises companies and investors on the political, legal, and communications challenges often posed by the New York market. With our extensive, direct experience in government, we know the keys for developing solutions, messaging them to decision-makers, and turning risks into opportunities.
| STRATEGY
Whatever your mission is, Moonshot can help get you there with a comprehensive strategy that puts our experience and connections to work for you. Our leadership has spent years engineering some of the highest-profile campaigns in New York City and State. We will use that experience to guide you toward success.
| PAID MEDIA + DIGITAL
Moonshot crafts engaging, highly-targeted content through digital and influencer marketing, television, radio, direct mail and other media. We use integrated, data-driven strategies to reach audiences where they are - and ensure your message breaks through the noise with a clear signal. Whether the goal is to persuade, mobilize, or create conditions that move policymakers, we’re experts in achieving outcomes through media creation and buying.
| COMMUNICATIONS
Moonshot can help refine your message and then share it with the audiences who need to hear it the most. Our skills include crisis communications, public relations, media training, political messaging, earned media, and digital and social media. We also have deep relationships with top reporters, editorial boards, and TV assignment desks across New York City and State.
| LABOR
With decades of experience working in and alongside New York’s most influential unions, our team offers unparalleled insights into labor dynamics. We have successfully navigated several complex and high-profile negotiations, such as securing a historic labor agreement involving Apollo Global Management and the Venetian hotel owners, and we can bring that same expertise to bear for your business. We provide strategic guidance on labor relations, including helping both sides find common ground and achieve sustainable agreements. We can also predict and manage the responses of elected officials and the media to any major labor news.
