GREAT SUCCESSES: EDGE OF THE PLAINS DOCUMENTARY
Entrepreneurs are a special breed. They build thriving businesses from nothing more than an idea. They start with zero credibility on kitchen tables and use their faith, passion and confidence to convince people to buy from them. They hear 'no' constantly. They fail, start over, then fail and start over again. They are the backbone of the US and Montana.
This documentary is a rare glimpse into the inspiring stories of entrepreneurs throughout central and southeast Montana who turned their pipe dreams into a reality.
