Happy Holidays to everyone!

DEALER SHOWCASE
Please welcome Touchless Outdoor Lifestyles to our Touchless Cover family. They will be servicing in the Montana area. Their story is below.
Growing up rafting and fly fishing in the North Idaho rivers from the age of ten, Austin knew he belonged on the water. When he turned 14 and could legally drive, working at a floating jet ski rental shop on the lake only made sense. From there the boats got bigger and the opportunities began in the guest service industry. Managing a resort marina during summer vacations from the University of Idaho, he fell in love with the boating community culture and set out to make a life of it after graduating. Kaleb, Nebraska born and raised and a Husker fan through and through, enjoyed the vast hunting grounds and waterfowl Nebraska had to offer. Learning his strong suit was in sales, he traveled through North America spending time in British Columbia, South Carolina and North Carolina selling, advertising and listing heavy machinery for weekly online options.
Noticing that most people can only experience an outdoor lifestyle for a week while on vacation, both Austin and Kaleb moved to a small town in Northwestern Montana. Whitefish, a thriving ski town of 2,500, sits on the doorstep to Glacier National Park with peaks taunting all who gaze in awe to the summit. When offers for executive team lead positions at Target came after college, a quick Google search of a town far from home lead to a leap of faith, the start of a friendship and the pursuit of the Montana Touchless Lifestyle. MTL will start out this upcoming spring selling and installing the Touchless Boat Covers and plans to expand to other outdoor and marine accessories. Currently, nothing is off the table, except their retail management careers as the evolution of Montana Touchless Lifestyle begins to evolve. Loving the area they are blessed to live in, they strive to create the best experience for local lake dwellers and outdoor enthusiasts.
