Roy DiMarco’s journey began in 1985 at KRS Communications, a prominent Long Island sales promotion agency.
Rapidly rising through the ranks, Roy demonstrated his prowess by expanding the client base and elevating agency revenues. Notable achievements include securing top-tier clients such as Banfi Vintners, General Cigar, Rock Bottom Drug Stores, Mistic Beverages, Jumby Bay Island, Beacon Photo, Schein Dental and various regional B2B enterprises.
Following the merger of KRS Communications with Harrison Leifer DiMarco in 2001, Roy assumed a pivotal role as chief operating officer in propelling HLD’s growth trajectory.
Through strategic acquisitions, he bolstered the agency’s capabilities in marketing, public relations, and digital services. This strategic vision catapulted HLD to become one of Long Island’s largest and most accomplished branding, advertising, public relations, and interactive agencies.
In a testament to its success, HLD was honored as the first advertising and public relations agency named to Hofstra University and KPMG’s list of the 25 Fastest-Growing Private Companies on Long Island in 2002.
Transitioning from his tenure at Harrison Leifer DiMarco, where he played a pivotal role in propelling the agency’s growth trajectory through strategic acquisitions and visionary leadership, Roy seized the opportunity in 2013 to establish his own agency, RGD Marketing.
As president, he embarked on a new chapter, steering a nimble organization on Long Island that thrives on close collaboration with business owners and key decision-makers.
Drawing on his extensive expertise in branding and a suite of modern marketing strategies, Roy tailors bespoke solutions that drive revenue and cultivate strong brand identities for his diverse clientele.
Roy holds a bachelor’s degree in business marketing and management from LIU Post, a testament to his commitment to excellence and lifelong learning.
Outside of his professional endeavors, Roy is deeply involved in philanthropy. In 2017, he co-founded Warriors For A Cause, a non-profit organization dedicated to raising money for worthy Long Island, New York-based not-for-profits, charities, and foundations, such as the Michal Magro Foundation, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and The Tunnel To Towers Foundation, where he serves as treasurer and holds a position on the executive committee.
Prior to this, Roy dedicated 13 years to serving on the board of Island Harvest, a testament to his enduring commitment to making a positive impact. His contributions were further recognized when he was honored as the golf honoree for the annual golf classic in 2009.
