ARN Brings iHeartMedia’s Leading Branded Content Studio ‘Ruby’ to Australia

 ARN today announced it will debut iHeartMedia’s branded content studio Ruby in Australia, dedicated to crafting meaningful, impactful, and culturally relevant storytelling with partners through branded podcasts. 

Now, through the debut of Ruby Australia, ARN will seamlessly be able to connect brands to audiences by translating brand messaging, products, and services into original and engaging stories that audiences love.

In the United States, Ruby has built the industry’s largest slate of branded podcasts, producing more than fifty original titles with partners and delivering proven results for the world’s biggest advertisers including Audible, HBO, IBM, Salesforce, and more.

Ruby allows advertisers to engage audiences with creative, long-form native content. Now, with ARN launching Ruby Australia, local advertisers have the capability to create holistic podcast concepts that resonate with their targeted audiences in a unique environment, with opportunities for storytelling that are not possible anywhere else in their media mix including social video. 

At the heart of Ruby is a simple promise: brands invest in the media, and Ruby covers all production, talent and distribution costs – delivering premium content and measurable ROI as added value to a hardworking media plan. Ruby Australia will aim to provide a complete end-to-end service, handling every step of the branded podcast journey: 

  • Creative conception and production of premium, story-driven audio and video podcast content using ARN state-of-the-art facilities
  • Development of all sales, marketing and social assets
  • Promotion and amplification across ARN’s broadcast network and the iHeart digital ecosystem
  • Management of all social amplification
  • Measurement and reporting that prove ROI

From Food to Finance, Fashion to Football, Dating to Drama, Ruby Australia will provide the expertise, creative capability, and data-driven insights to bring any story to life.

“The average ad receives less than three seconds of attention,” said Corey Layton, ARN’s Head of Digital Audio. “What stories would you tell if you had 30 minutes with your audience? With unmatched audience recall, deeper emotional connections, and higher engagement when compared to other mediums, audio offers brands the opportunity to make a lasting impact in a crowded advertising landscape.”

Ben Campbell, ARN Chief Digital and Technology Officer, added: “Ruby has transformed the way brands in the U.S. connect with audiences, and we’re excited to bring that proven model to Australia. With Ruby, advertisers don’t just buy media – they get a full-service content partner that handles everything from ideation and production to promotion and measurement. By creating turnkey solutions, we’re making it easier than ever for brands to unlock the power of podcasts.”

With the arrival of Ruby Australia, ARN will now offer advertisers a full-service branded content solution that delivers impactful, long-form storytelling at scale – across audio, visual, social, and live experiences.
