PFL Tech Inc. is a marketing technology company that provides sales enablement and marketing automation solutions, as well asprinting, mailing, and fulfillment services. They also provide some great Montana Jobs.

Montana’s tourism industry had cause to celebrate on Tuesday when Travelocity http://www.travelocity.com , the global travel company, announced a big gift at the Montana Economic Development Summit.

With great fanfare – and a giant check – Sam Gilliland, CEO of the company, announced that Travelocity is investing $500,000 to help promote Montana tourism and will give $10,000 to the inaugural Montana Folk Festival in Butte.

Bringing more tourists to Montana is cause to celebrate, came the response from Secretary of State Linda McCulloch. To wit: More than 10 million visitors came to the state in 2009 and spent $3 billion while they were here.

But Montana relies heavily on travel companies – including Travelocity – to get out the word about the state’s beauty and culture.
