Meet the Owner

Tony de la Cruz, owner of DLC Marketing Group.Greetings,

I appreciate your time and the opportunity to share more information about our history! It was late 2014, I was Digital Account Manager for Digital First Media, a major newspaper publisher known for its digital first strategy. After transitioning from print ad sales to digital sales, my journey would include many months of rigorous online training and classroom instruction. Subsequently, they merged with a private equity company and our group was dissolved.  

I had gained a wealth of knowledge in digital marketing and wanted to remain in the industry but wasn’t sure that I wanted to work for another media company. In early 2015, my daughter said, “Dad, why don’t you start your own marketing company?” and the rest is history! 

When I started this business in 2015, my vision was to help all businesses improve their online presence. We set out to provide a full portfolio of digital marketing services. In 2017, we began offering Sales and Marketing business consulting and as you can imagine this became very strenuous work, managing various business partners, vendors, clients and independent contractors.

Today, I’m solely dedicated to providing the retail sector and agencies, business class, text marketing software and support. This is my only focus and commitment to you!

As we turn over a new chapter in life and business, my wife Angela and I are happy to call Arlington, Texas our home. We are blessed to have raised three amazing children (Anthony, Alex and Ariana yes all “A” names, talk to my wife) About a year ago, we became proud GP’s to our granddaughter, Natalia! 

In 2025, we are proud to celebrate 10 years in business and excited for another decade, with new successes and memories! Providing exceptional service is not just a motto at DLC Marketing Group, it is the lifeblood and cornerstone of my business. For me, it’s the single most important premise of my company!

I truly appreciate your trust and partnership! 

Cheers!

Tony de la Cruz
