A Story of Growth and Innovation

For Thomas Randazzo, the founder of Optimum Pest Control, pest control isn’t just a business—it’s a family legacy. Thomas grew up learning the industry firsthand while working alongside his father at Brothers Exterminating, a pest control business established in 1977. With years of experience under his belt, he founded Optimum Pest Control in 2007, building a company focused on providing exceptional pest control services with integrity and expertise.

In 2017, after his father’s semi-retirement, Optimum Pest Control merged with Brothers Exterminating, solidifying its reputation as a premier pest control provider in Long Island and NYC. With a growing team of 7 technicians, Thomas set his sights on expanding the company’s reach, offering top-quality pest management solutions across more areas.

As part of their 2024 growth strategy, Optimum Pest Control aimed to establish a stronger presence in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan while maintaining its foothold in Long Island and expanding to Westchester. Thomas knew that digital marketing would play a key role in reaching new customers, building trust, and standing out in a competitive market.

Dijital Karma stepped in to transform their marketing approach, strengthening their website, advertising, lead tracking, and customer retention systems to drive real, measurable growth.

“We’ve always prioritized high-quality service and customer satisfaction,” Thomas said. “But as we expanded, we needed to ensure our online presence reflected our expertise. That’s why we partnered with Dijital Karma to enhance our digital marketing strategy.”
