Bootstrap Montana Loan Program Description

The Bootstrap Montana Loan Program is designed to provide funds for initiatives that will have a rapid and positive impact on sales or the competitiveness of a company. These loans are for marketing and sales related activities. Such uses of funds might be:

• To supplement the salary of a new high potential salesperson
• To attend a trade show at which orders will be taken
• To purchase key prospect lists

Applicants should view these dollars as 'sales acceleration funding' or a way to capitalize on a sales or market opportunity that requires quick, but limited, financial investment.

The loan committee meets monthly.
