Derek Giordano’s Summary
Internet entrepreneur and Investor in keyword Internet domain names. Future focus will be centered on development of these web properties into eBusinesses.
Prior to making my living off of the Internet, I created and ran a pest control business in Orlando, FL, Columbia, SC, Raleigh, NC, Birmingham, AL, and Saint Louis, MO with five business partners. Our business, Summit Pest Control, was sold to a large pest control company in January 2007.

Owner
Summit Pest Control
(Consumer Services industry)
2004 — 2007 (3 years)
Started business from scratch. Built customer base by employing college age salesmen to sign up customers going door-to-door during summer months. Results were very positive, and allowed our offices in five separate states to grow in a single summer at a pace that takes most pest control businesses years to accomplish.
Three years after starting the business... we sold it. Which was our plan from the beginning. -
