Background

About Johnny Scott

A former Sales Fellow with CROP, where I earned a role in their Sales Enablement Department two months before completing the year-long tech sales program. But my story didn’t stop there. After two months supporting enablement at CROP, I came across an opportunity to join an early-stage startup—Nuve—as a Sales Development Representative. I jumped in. Why? Because I wanted hands-on experience in the trenches: cold outreach, booking meetings, handling objections, and learning what it truly takes to succeed as an SDR. My goal? To grow from the ground up and eventually train and uplift others following in my footsteps. At Nuve, I’m learning fast, building confidence, and refining my craft every day. I stay sharp through podcasts, workshops, and by plugging into every learning and networking opportunity I can find. But most importantly—I share what I learn. Some might call it a competitive risk, but I believe real leadership is about lifting your team, not outshining them. Before tech, I worked in politics, explored procurement, and sharpened my people skills selling on the streets of San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf with Big Bus Tours. It was there—engaging with people from around the world—that I learned how to read a room in seconds, speak across cultures, and go from pitching products to providing solutions to problems. I don’t come from a traditional background—I come from one that forged resilience, grit, and purpose. Sales isn’t just my career—it’s my calling. I’m here to learn, grow, and build pathways for others like me. Let’s connect—especially if you’re building a team, championing diverse talent, or believe the best sellers are lifelong learners who lift others as they climb.
