Yobi

Yobi is the probiotic-based skin, scalp, and hair-care company founded by Ruchi Gupta and discussed in Advice Line with Susan Griffin-Black of EO Products. The company grew out of Gupta’s effort to solve her daughter’s severe eczema and cradle cap with help from dermatologists and microbiologists.

The episode frames Yobi as a trust-heavy consumer health brand. It sells through its website, Amazon, and professional channels such as spas, salons, physician offices, and mini spas. Guy and Susan Griffin-Black advise keeping DTC while building professional discovery locally, because Ruchi’s medical authority and founder story can make Mission Driven Customer Education and Customer Pull stronger.
