JCN Takes Home Telly Award for Bernie Marcus Tribute Video

Washington, D.C. (June 10, 2025)—The Job Creators Network (JCN), a leading conservative small business advocacy organization, won a Telly Award for a video produced in 2024. Over the past decade, the organization has earned 18 of the accolades. Telly Awards—which recognize excellence in video advertising—are judged by a group of leading experts from prestigious companies in advertising, entertainment, publishing, and emerging technology.

This year, JCN took home a Telly Award for its tribute video to Bernie Marcus, founder of JCN and co-founder of The Home Depot. He passed away in 2024 and the video highlights his remarkable life, achievement of the American Dream, generous philanthropy, and dedication to small businesses. Watch the video here.

“Bernie Marcus was one of the great American success stories,” said Alfredo Ortiz, JCN Chief Executive Officer. “While no tribute video can encapsulate the impact he had on helping others achieve the American Dream, we’re proud to continue telling his story and carrying the torch of free enterprise.”
