Sirius XM Advertising Guidelines

9

Sirius XM does not publish its audience sizes. You can get them by calling Mike. Audience sizes range from 1M on the low side to 4M for Howard and up to 8M for Fox News.

9
60 second spots are preferred, especially when advertising something “new.” 30 second spots are fine for products/services easily recognized and understood by the audience.
9
60 second spots are priced by channel and range from $100 to $850, except for Howard Stern. He’s much more and that pricing is very dynamic.
9
In our buys, we seek a minimum of 3 spots per day per channel.
9
Sirius XM does not flight spots by time of day. Ads run between 6a and 12p EST. That’s because your advertising across four times zones simultaneously.
9
Sirius is national only, plus Mexico and Canada. Because it beams down via satellite, you cannot place buys for specific geographies.
9
Your average CPM (cost per thousand impressions) will average $1-$2. That’s about a quarter of Google SEM and 10X to 50X cheaper than Pandora or Spotify. It’s also 10X to 30X less expensive than traditional radio.
9
Why such a good deal? Because Sirius XM’s primary revenue comes from subscriptions. Plus, because you can’t parcel your audience by demographics or geography, you get a big discount.
9
There’s nothing like reaching an audience of around 15 million when you advertise on 3 channels for $20-30k. The impact is direct and immediate. Plus, you get the added benefit of putting your digital marketing and SEO on steroids, as hundreds and thousands of listeners visit your website.
9
Sirius XM does not have remnant advertising. Be wary of anyone who might claim that.
9
We have been working with Sirius XM since 2016.

What does it cost to reach a 25 million audience, and how?

For $20,000 to $30,000 spent over two weeks, your spot can reach this audience by advertising on the news channels. Or, you can do a combo of news and sports. Or news, sports and comedies. These audiences easily build up to around 25 million weekly listeners. No other national advertising media can offer an audience of this size at anything near Sirius XM’s pricing.

Sirius XM audience advantage

Advertising on SiriusXM is the Most Cost Effective Way to Reach C-Suite and Business Owners

Yes, we all know SiriusXM reaches a stunning national audience of millions of paying listeners. When you think about it, the fact that subscribers pay for their radio means:

  • They have higher discretionary income.
  • They’re buyers.
  • They’re inclined to technology.

SiriusXM marketing helps you deliver your message to a targeted and captive audience at a more affordable price than other, regular advertising mediums. Satellite radio is an advertising medium that has a fixed loyal audience, making it rewarding to invest in SiriusXM commercials.

Reach Business Owners and Decision Makers

SiriusXM excels at reaching a 45+, college educated, business owner, C-suite executive audience … with the right channel placement. Let’s say that again; if you’re in B2B and want to reach CEO, president, business owner decision makers, SiriusXM is for you.

Of course, SiriusXM has channels for other markets too, including news, sports, comedy, entertainment, lifestyle and religious. It’s all in how you pick them. We’ll help you find your audience for the wisest ad spend.

Advertising on the Howard Stern radio show, for example, provides an opportunity to reach millions of listeners. Howard Stern has one of the most popular shows on satellite radio today and you can reach Howard Stern listeners easily, plus, you get to buy the lowest cost per thousand (CPM) in radio.

Large Reach and Cost-effective

When advertising your business, you want the advantage of a large reach with a cost-effective price. With SiriusXM, you get just that. In addition to the United States, SiriusXM also serves ads to Canada and Mexico. Your ads will be heard in all three countries.
