Satellite radio targets an upscale audience nationwide with messaging that can’t be zapped or skipped. In today’s media landscape, that’s a BIG reason advertisers prefer Sirus XM radio. In addition, the current political climate is driving additional listeners to this medium, making this channel even more attractive.
The strategy consists of using satellite radio to target adults listening to news radio – both CNN and Fox News to create awareness for the adjustable Perfect Pressure Mattress Topper and position the product as effective for new and older mattresses – essentially making them adjustable.
However, rather than relying on ONLY the radio spots to drive conversions, Green Dot recommends using social media to target followers of CNN and Fox News on their smartphones with sponsored newsfeed ads. This tactic leverages the awareness created by the radio ads and gives the audience something to “click on” vs. waiting for them to call.
Those targets who engage and click the ad for the adjustable topper will be linked to a landing page which adds a visual component to the campaign. If they leave without ordering, retargeting banner ads will follow them anywhere they go online for up to 2 weeks.
Green Dot can target CNN and Fox News followers, who also follow Sirius XM radio on Facebook and make upwards of $100k, live in the US and are between 40-65 years old. Using these parameters, the audience size is about 250,000 online, while the Sirius XM radio ads will reach almost 7,500,000 people up to 4 times per week.
Advertising Sirius XM radio provides access to a nationwide audience that is actively listening to news radio from their favorite source – CNN or Fox News.
This buy reaches up 7.5 million people with 60 second spots explaining the concept and running for a period of 5 weeks during the 4th of July holiday period. Green Dot expects a frequency of approximately 4 impressions per week for the average listener.
Green Dot will place and manage the buy and produce the radio spot. The campaign will be supported by a digital social media marketing component to help enhance conversions.
In order to ensure we capture every possible order resulting from the awareness generated by the Sirus XM radio ads, Green Dot suggests running a low cost Google Adwords campaign focused on branded searches.
That means searches for “Perfect Pressure Mattress Topper” and “Adjustable Mattress Topper”. These key phrases will be very inexpensive as there will be no existing search volume until the commercials begin running. Only those people who have heard the commercial will be able to search for these key phrases, making them highly qualified potential buyers.
Digital display ads are used to retarget all prospects who visited your website but did not complete the desired action. These display ads can be shown to visitors from all traffic sources. The retargeting ads run on a wide network of websites that support display advertising and “follow” your prospects from site to site as the browse the net, giving you a second and third opportunity to close the deal.
This landing page will leverage and repeat the same messaging consumers heard on satellite radio, feature the Sirus XM logo, as well as the logo of the news station they prefer (CNN listeners will see a different version of the page than FoxNews listeners).
The landing page will be designed for both mobile devices and desktop computers with mobile responsive code ensuring content renders consistently on tablets and smartphones.
Green Dot ensures you know how your campaigns are performing at all times. Clients have direct access to the marketers working on their campaigns as well as to reporting platforms like Google Analytics (website performance), RavenTools (campaign performance) and Call Tracking Metrics (phone call lead tracking).

Social Advertising & Marketing
Social Advertising
These days, the consumer’s eyeballs are primarily focused on their smartphone. Even while watching TV, driving or while at work, consumers are distracted by their social media feeds. There’s simply no better place to advertise.
Green Dot suggests targeting followers of CNN and Fox News, and cross referencing that with followers of Sirus XM to reduce the audience size to those consumers most likely to have heard the radio ad, and targeting them with sponsored newsfeed ads linking to a landing page specifically designed to make the connection between the radio spot and the newsfeed ad.
