"To whom much is given, much is expected." That is the message of Bozeman businessman and tech entrepreneur Greg Gianforte's latest TV that launched over the weekend.
The ad is an opportunity for Gianforte to highlight both his and his family's 20+ year history of serving the people of Montana. From creating 500 good paying Montana jobs, to starting Bootstrap Montana, to supporting local charities and scholarships, the Gianfortes have worked hard to make Montana a better place.
Gianforte is the founder of RightNow Technologies. He started the company out of his house in Bozeman, and created over 500 jobs in Montana. The average Montana salary at RightNow was nearly $90,000 a year. Oracle purchased RightNow in 2012, and continues to expand the company's footprint in Montana.
