We're Moonwater. For 15+ years, we've scaled brands that refuse to burn cash.
We partner with growth-stage companies where paid ads are the growth engine.
We believe the best marketers do it differently.
This is how.
We're Moonwater. For 15+ years, we've scaled brands that refuse to burn cash.
We partner with growth-stage companies where paid ads are the growth engine.
We believe the best marketers do it differently.
This is how.
Make something great. Spend money. Make more back. That's it.
Somewhere along the way, the industry complicated the obvious.
Most agencies sell activity:
Complexity, cloudiness, meetings about meetings, dashboards full of noise.
Not here. Not ever.
We sell outcomes. Marketing should compound, not drain.
Before Moonwater, we built and scaled brands from the inside.
We hired agencies—even good ones—and the same cracks showed up every time.
So we built what we couldn't find.
We have zero ambition to become one.
We stay small, expert-only, and high craft.
That's why we're here.
Too many irons leads to too many priorities—and mediocre work.
Great work needs focus. We protect it.
We don't fake performance—not to you, not to ourselves.
Being honest gets you there faster.
CAC is a repeat offender. So are blended dashboards built to feel good.
We care about what actually happened—and what it cost.
In-platform performance is easy to fake. Bottom-line impact is not.
The P&L is king. Everything else is commentary.
More tools and charts. Less clarity.
Growth is hard. But measuring it isn't.
Ads are for new customers, not people who would've converted anyway.
We structure accounts so this can't be missed.
It's worth repeating: ads exist to create demand.
Retention matters deeply—but ads aren't the tool for it.
No percentages. No games.
We're happy to leave money on the table. Fair work at a fair price.
We're month-to-month with thirty days' notice.
You always get our best work—at the start or at the end.
We run a specific playbook. It doesn't work for everyone.
When it's not a fit, we say so—out loud.
Most agencies neglect most clients. We don't.
Same fees. Same level of investment from us.
The recipe is simple: a great setup, repeated over time.
What makes it hard is the discipline to stay the course.
Revenue is one lever. Costs are the other.
Most ignore the second. We focus on both.
Short-term wins are fleeting.
Good work compounds—and it takes time.
The best marketing looks different.
It turns left when most go right. That takes courage—and that's true of anything good.
