AJ Khubani, CEO of Telebrands, was recently interviewed by Barbara White-Sax from Drug Store News. According to Khubani, products in the As Seen on TV category have grown in sales by about 20% in the last year and are predicted to continue to increase in the coming year.

“Our market model is very sound. As a group of companies, we test market hundreds of products on television, then bring the top 10 to retail. Drug chains are only getting the products that are most successful. They are consumer-tested with a known demand and significant advertising support,” said Khubani.
