Who we are

A marketing agency that owns Montana's most popular magazine.

Distinctly Media is a Montana marketing agency. We also own and publish Distinctly Montana, the state's only statewide magazine, and Faces of Bozeman, and we've run our own online store, Distinctly Montana Marketplace, since 2016. So everything we do for Montana businesses, we already do every day for our own brands.

We're in Bozeman, we answer our own phones, and we've always been Montana owned. Call the office, press Sales, and you're talking to one of us.
