Inspired by what makes you different. Built to make it unforgettable.
Momentum Creative Group exists because we believe every business, regardless of size or budget, deserves creative work that's strategic, intentional, world-class, and genuinely collaborative.
We're not a vendor you hire. We're a partner you build with.
Who we are
-
We lean into people, believe in big ideas, and that you’re the best person to tell your story. We provide the expertise and experience of Fortune 500 companies in an approachable and personalized boutique agency to make it possible.
-
People first | We lead with relationships. Every project starts with understanding you — your goals, your audience, and what success actually looks like.
Partners, not vendors | We work with you, not around you. Your input shapes the work. Your growth is the goal.
Quality without compromise | Small businesses deserve enterprise-level thinking. We don't scale down our standards based on budget.
Honest over impressive | We'll tell you what we think, even when it's not what you expected. The best partnerships are built on candor, not just capability.
Clarity over complexity | We don't overexplain, overdesign, or overcomplicate. We find the clearest way to say what needs to be said.
Momentum, always | There's energy behind everything we do — and we bring that to every client, every project, every deliverable.

John and Ryan worked together in technology and corporate marketing: managing global product launches, leading creative programs, aligning cross-functional teams, and executing marketing campaigns at scale. They were good at it. But they kept noticing the same problem.
Smaller businesses and startups (the ones with the most to prove and the most to gain) weren't getting the quality of creative and strategic support they deserved. Some couldn't access it. Others were stuck with agencies that had stopped listening years ago, delivering the same work on autopilot while collecting the same retainer.
That felt wrong. So they built something different.
Momentum Creative Group was founded on a simple belief: business doesn't have to feel cold and transactional. The best work happens when there's real trust, genuine curiosity, and a shared investment in the outcome. We start every engagement by learning what matters to you — your goals, your audience, your story — and we stay in that collaborative space from kickoff to delivery.
We're not here to oversell, overpromise, or pad a scope. We're here to help you grow. And to grow alongside you as we do.
We want to learn what your passion is — and help you build something worthy of it.
Meet the team
Ryan Stewart
Co-founder & Managing Director
Ryan co-founded Momentum Creative Group with one core belief: small businesses deserve the same strategic firepower as the big guys — without the big-agency friction.
With 14 years across communications, marketing, and program management in higher education and technology, Ryan brings a rare combination of big-picture thinking and ground-level execution. He's the kind of collaborator who gets genuinely energized by someone else's vision and equally energized by helping them see how much further it can go.
At Momentum, alongside co-founder John Collins, Ryan leads brand, marketing, consulting, and video engagements built around one question: what do you actually need? No retainers. No minimums. Just a committed outside perspective, delivered with honesty, creativity, and a healthy nudge toward what's possible.
John Collins
Co-founder & Creative Director
John's career has run through television production and corporate marketing, built on a foundation of helping people figure out what they actually need. When you start from the right place, finding new and creative ways to accomplish goals together becomes the fun part.
On the production side, he learned how to build narratives that move people. In corporate marketing, he learned how to point those narratives at real business problems — and throughout, he stayed focused on helping real people, not just checking boxes.
At Momentum, John leads creative direction with a clear point of view: great work starts with understanding people and their perspectives, not just audiences.
