Meet Ruby Juu

Today we’d like to introduce you to Ruby Juu.

Ruby, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
As a child, I was always a talker, an entertainer and the one that gets the party started. So as I grew into an adult, my personality develops a lot more. People would always tell me I should have my own TV Show or Radio Station, so I decided to go ahead and start my journey into the Radio/Podcast world last year. I started a Radio Station /Podcast with nothing to begin with no fancy equipment, no DJ, or Radio Station producer just me, my creativity and my phones. I used an app called Stationhead to develop my Radio Personality which turned into a Podcast.

The Podcast has become a success for me in terms of exploring different stories, interviewing people, and just being able to be myself in my own creative way. When I first started my Podcast I was a little nervous. I didn’t know where to start, what exactly to talk about, or how to present my content to people. I started to look at some of my favorite Talk Show Host and Radio Host which prompted ideas for my content on my Podcast to flow so easily, then I just jumped out there.

Fast Forward today I am 100 plus episodes into my podcast, I have developed a very informative Instagram full of content that makes you laugh, inspires you, provides you with celebrity gossip, and news stories.

Has it been a smooth road?
There were some challenges with starting my Radio Station/Podcast. The main challenge was getting people to listen to my content and accept my personality for what it was. I had a lot of people tell me I was too raw, I was too loud, nobody would listen to me talking as straight- forward as I talked. There was a lot of doubt and negativity from people I didn’t expect it from. This part of the journey was truly challenging, I had many days and nights of feeling like the world was against me. I took that energy and turned it into drive, ambition, determination, and dedication.

The other challenge I faced was creating advertising content to attract people to my Podcast and my Instagram. So I started researching different apps and different ways to advertise. I would often mimic other people’s ways of advertising and their content set up. I also figured out ways to drive traffic to my Instagram page without having buy robots or followers which lead to more plays on my podcast.

Fast Forward today I have over 1,000 plays on my Podcast, My Podcast is streaming and being played in six different countries. My Instagram page receives 500 visits every week, constant traffic, and constant engagements.

Please tell us more about your work, what you are currently focused on and most proud of.
Ruby Juu Radio Traffikk Drive is a new business I just launched helping new businesses and people that are new to Instagram drive traffic to their Instagram page and also helping them understand the analytics of Instagram. My main focus is advertisement, I specialize in creating simple, eye-catching content/materials to drive traffic to your business, Instagram page, website, etc.

I am mostly known for my stories( which are my truths), my live videos I do on Facebook, and my Podcast. People enjoy listening to my entertaining content. Ruby Juu Radio is what I am most proud of. My journey I have had and the obstacles I have faced when creating my brand. What sets me apart from the rest is that I am very versatile, straight forward, no cut, no chase, and genuine with my content. I give people something to look forward to. Comedy, Culture, and Motivation.

How do you think the industry will change over the next decade?
The Podcast world is definitely going to improve within the next 5-10 years. People are starting a podcast every day. Podcasting is giving people who never really had a voice a chance to have a voice and giving them a chance to tell their story. Podcasting is also shifting traditional radio to be able to be broadcast any and everywhere and not just in some studio of some sort. It will become a thing to have a Podcast instead of people saying whats your Instagram they will say what is your Podcast.

In the next 5- 10 years I see myself helping other people that have been through similar struggles I have been through with creating my brand. I see my webinars on how to drive traffic to your Instagram page being a very successful in helping businesses and people new to social media marketing. I also see myself setting trends and changing the game with letting people know it is OK to be yourself, it’s OK not to be the it girl or the most popular dude on the block, it’s OK to go after your dreams and do what you love. I am also an artist. I see my music touching souls, inspiring people to love and express their feelings.
