When Asadullah Ali lost his job in construction after a fall from scaffolding, he found himself at a crossroads. Physically limited, financially uncertain, and unsure of the road ahead, he made a bold choice. Armed with little more than a $30 pump sprayer, a generic pesticide, and an old 2005 Mazda 3, he launched Armani Pest Control—a business built from grit, resilience, and one very clear goal: to keep going.
Today, Armani Pest Control is not only a trusted name in the industry but also one of ServiceSeeking.com.au’s top-performing businesses—and it all began with one man refusing to give up.
After his accident, Asadullah needed to reimagine his working life. “I needed a job where I could use one arm,” he says, candidly. Pest control offered that possibility—and a new beginning. He didn’t start with fancy branding or high-end gear. He started with what he had and a determination to do the job right.
That down-to-earth approach became the foundation of his business.
For Armani Pest Control, growth didn’t come overnight. Asadullah turned to lead generation platforms like ServiceSeeking, Oneflare, and Hipages to connect with new customers. But what truly set him apart wasn’t just showing up—it was how he showed up.
“Honesty, professionalism and friendliness,” he says. “Do the job right, own mistakes, and manage expectations.”
It’s a simple formula, but one that continues to earn him repeat clients and glowing recommendations.
Our site has played a significant role in Armani Pest Control’s growth story. “Absolutely, I have received a 10x return on investment,” Asadullah shares.
That’s not just numbers on a page—it’s real work, real customers, and real outcomes. He recalls several key jobs that came through ServiceSeeking, each one leading to word-of-mouth referrals and stronger community trust.
Running a small business is rarely smooth sailing. But Asadullah’s steady mindset has helped him weather the ups and downs. “Just keep going,” he says. “Doesn’t matter if it’s quiet, keep going.”
One lesson he learned the hard way? “Customers are not your friends,” he says. “But they can be the best ambassadors for your business.” It’s a reminder that professionalism and boundaries matter—but so does building genuine trust.
With so many options out there, what keeps Armani Pest Control rising to the top? It’s not flashy gimmicks or big-budget marketing. It’s consistent, reliable service built on values.
Clients aren’t just hiring someone to get rid of pests—they’re choosing someone who takes pride in the work, speaks honestly, and shows up when he says he will.
That’s the kind of reputation money can’t buy—and it’s exactly what platforms like ServiceSeeking were designed to support.
Asadullah’s story isn’t just about pest control—it’s about rebuilding, adapting, and thriving. For other tradies wondering if they can start something from scratch, his message is clear: You can.
You don’t need the latest van or the best equipment from day one. You need integrity, effort, and a platform that connects you to people who need what you offer.
And sometimes, the journey that begins in a beat-up Mazda 3 turns into a business worth celebrating.
