The awards behind the story.
Nine photographs supplied by AJ Khubani on September 30, 2026. This record distinguishes personal honors, company recognition and awards presented to collaborators or retail partners.
The photographs are reproduced with their full framing and inscriptions intact. Publication permission is supplied by AJ’s request to feature this collection on his website. Identifications follow legible inscriptions and the supporting records described below; the collection is not an independent audit or a count of distinct honors.
Photograph 02
Advertising Hall of Fame of New Jersey · 2010
Personal honor. The inscription names AJ Khubani and the year 2010.
Photograph 03
Direct Response Hall of Fame · 2014
Personal honor. The inscription identifies AJ Khubani as a 2014 inductee and names Response Magazine and DRMA Alliance as presenters. The supplied filename says “Direct Marketing”; the website uses the trophy’s exact “Direct Response” title.
Photograph 04
DRMA Marketer of the Year · 2015 finalist
Company recognition. The recipient is TeleBrands and the inscription explicitly says “Finalist.” This is separate from the 2017 ERA Marketer of the Year award documented in the website’s source 08.
Photograph 05
CVS Caremark recognition
The visible trophy face contains the CVS Caremark logo and a handshake emblem, but no readable award title, recipient or year. AJ supplied it as the CVS Vendor of the Year award. TeleBrands’ September 3, 2015 company announcement separately records a CVS vendor honor. No award year is inferred from that announcement’s publication date.
Photograph 06
Dollar General PRIDE Award · 2014
Company recognition. The trophy names TeleBrands as Seasonal Division Top Vendor. Its inscription expands PRIDE as Partner Recognition for Innovation, Dependability & Excellence. This is a division-specific honor.
Photograph 07
Retail and product milestone display
A collection photograph. Readable PedEgg plaques state that TeleBrands presented awards to retailers, including Walmart, Harmon Stores, Garden Ridge and Sally Beauty Supply. These are not awards given by those retailers to AJ. The Star Shower display is not used to establish the date or scope of the Walmart ranking; that story retains Joe Grady’s separately attributed 2015 account. No new rankings are inferred from the display.
Photograph 08
Industry awards display
A collection photograph showing multiple trophies and framed articles. It is used to show the collection, not to establish a complete award inventory or to identify unclear titles, recipients or years.
Photograph 09
Advertising certificates
The photograph includes a 2004 Classic Telly Winner certificate naming TeleBrands and Concepts TV Productions; a 2011 Bronze Telly Winner certificate naming Concepts TV Productions for TeleBrands Corp.; and an AdSphere Awards 2017 certificate reading “2016 - Long Form Winner, Star Shower Motion Laser Light.” These are advertising/company/collaborator recognitions, not three personal awards to AJ. Other small or unclear certificate text is not transcribed or used for additional claims.
