Debbie LaChusa

Debbie LaChusaDebbie LaChusa began her journey as an entrepreneur 18 years ago when her daughter Brianna was born. While she enjoyed her career in marketing and advertising she just couldn’t see keeping up the long hours it required with a new baby in the family. She wanted to be there for her daughter, and still have a fulfilling career and was determined to find a way to have both.

What started out as a flex-time work arrangement, eventually turned into part-time consulting work, allowing Debbie the time and freedom to begin building her own work-at-home business.

In 1998 Debbie opened DLC Marketing, a marketing consulting firm and virtual marketing agency. Through DLC Marketing, Debbie provides full-service marketing support to small business owners who can’t afford to hire a large agency.

In 2004, Debbie launched 10stepmarketing, an Internet-based marketing coaching, training and info-preneuring business, to help solo-professionals grow their businesses. 

And, in 2007, Debbie launched her third venture, 6FigureWorkAtHomeMom to help other moms learn how they too can build successful 6 figure businesses while also being home with their children.

Now, a mother of two teenagers, Debbie feels blessed to be a work-at-home mom who gets to spend time with her family, do work she loves and earn a great living. http://www.DebbieLaChusa.com
