Who are we?

We are a political consulting firm that focuses on real results. Helping you position your campaign or organization in a way that can set you up for longterm success.

Forward Motion Strategies is a by-the-hour firm, which means that we don’t require you to lock into any never-ending contracts and we don’t build in long retainers when you no longer need help.

We work on a variety of issues from getting your website or social media looking good to helping you cut turf so you can be canvassing during GOTV. No matter where you are in the process we can offer some momentum.

Forward Motion Strategies is a fully remote firm working at all levels of the ballot, from school board up to United States Congress.

Our founding CEO, Nicholas Thurston, managed multiple Congressional races and served as a Candidate Services Manager helping local candidates up and down the ballot before starting Forward Motion Strategies LLC. After dealing with shady consultants and recognizing a need for early and affordable help for candidates, he decided to do something about it. Forward Motion Strategies was born to give candidates a fighting chance early in their race and help candidates who need a political professional to steer their campaign in the right direction.
