About Scott

Scott @ Home

While most racers have a large trophy collection, Scott’s shelves don’t hold many mementos of that sort.  It is true, he has won a few matches, but his strict philosophy of passing on the good vibes applies to the thrill of winning on the track as well.  “If we give the trophy away, not only does the team feel the thrill of the win, but whomever we pass the trophy along to feels the excitement as well.”

Scott is the CEO and Founder of RealTruck.Com, an online truck accessories and car accessory store that was created in 1999.  Although its humble beginnings were in the basement, RealTruck has now grown into a multi-million dollar online ecommerce superstore.  Its mission is simple, to make people’s lives and vehicles better.

Like the beginnings of RealTruck, Scott’s first business ventures were humble as well.  He started at age nine selling greeting cards door to door.  And win or lose, has kept his entrepreneurial spirit alive since then.

Scotty @ Work

After graduating from Minot State University, North Dakota in 1993 with a BA in Economics, Scott worked at CellularONE as a sales rep.  During this time, cellular companies didn’t sell many accessories for phone, but aftermarket companies offered some items.  Cellular World was born and Scott’s seed for self proprietorship was planted.

Interest in the truck accessory world led Scott to work for ACI Agri-Cover in 1994.  The man was a beast at driving a bargain and became a regional sales manager and then the national sales manager.  A few years with Agri-Cover had Scott yearning to be on his own to discover his potential… thus, RealTruck was born.

In reality, being the CEO of a retail website is Scott’s second job.  His life’s career is being the best father, husband and friend he can be.   Scott is married to his bride, Shannon and father to their 5 beautiful kids (4 girls & 1 boy).  Spiritual seeker, Internet Business Consultant, blogger and dirt track race car driver (Central Region Midwest Modified Rookie of the Year for Wissota, 2008), all fall under his ‘additional skill’ list on his resume.

Driven by an innate human force to be considerate to those around him and the daily drive to be a better father, husband and business leader, Scott sees each day as a new challenge.  “Let’s not be so busy we don’t have time to help those around us with a kind word or considerate act.”
