Our Story

We work with small business owners ready to grow through government contracting.

At Creative Cresco, growth is at the core of everything we do.
We nurture growth in relationships, opportunities, and impact. Founded in 2024 by Ashley Johnson, a consultant with both PMP and CF APMP certifications, Creative Cresco emerged from a genuine desire to support small businesses, with special attention to minority and women-owned firms, in the government contracting space.

With 10 years guiding businesses through proposal processes and helping secure over $65 million in contract awards, we understand what makes a winning proposal. Our creative approach transforms your capabilities into compelling narratives that capture attention and win contracts.

We combine professional expertise with personal care, working closely with you to highlight your unique strengths. Your success becomes our success as we guide you through each step of the government contracting process with clarity and confidence.
