Empowering Montana Makers: Grow Your Craft, Expand Your Reach
Your Gateway to Digital Success
Being a Montana maker is about passion, skill, and connection to our incredible state. But we know it also comes with unique challenges: navigating vast geographies, securing cost-effective shipping and logistics, understanding social media trends to genuinely connect, reaching a broader audience beyond our borders, and even the complexities of sourcing quality raw materials.
At MontanaGateway.com, we’re building a new resource specifically designed to help you overcome these hurdles and thrive in the digital world.
Our Montana Story
My connection to Montana runs deep. My family has called this state home since the 70s, and my father spent 30 years with the Bell Systems, building out the very fiber optic network that carries our internet today. After decades in the digital world working with national brands like T-Mobile, Coors, and Microsoft, along with beloved local favorites, I’ve returned to my roots, inspired to help bring “Made in Montana” products to a broader market.
I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with artisans across the Northwest – from musicians to adventure travel companies (think backcountry mountain biking in Alaska or glamping right here in Montana), and even artisan food producers in Washington and Oregon creating custom spices, gourmet chocolates, candies, and of course, beer! My appreciation for handcrafted quality is immense, and I’m here to put my digital expertise to work for you.
