Our base camp is located in Missoula, Montana – a vibrant community with an eclectic spirit and a creative environment, both online and off. Missoulians are not afraid of getting their hands dirty, and we work as hard as we play. We mined the local “natural resources” to put together an innovative team of web developers and search engine marketers with over 20 years of combined industry experience.

Mike has been online since before Al Gore invented the Internet, if that give you any idea about his experience. He’s got what those in the know call “digital chops”, which is to say if it’s remotely related to the Internet, he can figure out how to get it done. Take this wealth of knowledge and multiply it with his extensive background in sales and marketing, and you begin to see what a valueable resource he is to the BlendedMarket team.
When he’s not at the helm of the S.S. BlendedMarket, he’s often hiking the hills above Missoula with his fiance while identifying raptor species.
Nate can best be described as a “Digital Beast”. Period. He runs circles around supposed digital marketers in larger cities which means he’s about as good as it gets in Western Montana. Bravado? Call it confidence. A casual chat with Nate about your marketing challenges, and within minutes you’re left breathless with dozens of new ideas and approaches you hadn’t thought possible. You see Nate’s been marketing businesses of all types online since back in the day when folks thought the Internet was just a fad. Most all conversations with Nate invariable lead back to marketing or a new tools he’s developing online. “Why talk about the weather?” we’ve heard him say, “when building a growing customer base is all that really matters in this world.”
The rare occasion when he’s free to unwind, Nate enjoys time with his beautiful wife and their new baby. Or he can be found in his home studio mixing Wu-Tang and Garth Brooks.
