Matthew Paulsen
Owner & Founder of Design Labs of Montana, LLC
With an extensive background in business management, marketing, and ownership, I’m passionate about supporting community-focused organizations and helping local businesses thrive.
Throughout my career, I’ve sought to make a positive and meaningful impact on small, local businesses. And in a town like Helena, mom-and-pop shops aren’t just businesses, they’re the heart and soul of who we are as a community.
After years of working for larger companies, I grew supremely dissatisfied with how smaller clients were treated. These are dreamers and doers, just like me. These are people who need someone willing to take a chance on them, understand their goals, and help them succeed. That’s why I left the corporate world: to take a chance on myself so that I could take chances for others.
Design Labs is the culmination of years of experience in customer service, business strategy, and mentorship. It's built by design to give small businesses better products, better support, and better opportunities to grow.
