In what seemed like minutes apart from each other, Sirius yesterday sent out a promotion offering a $20 reward check for referring a friend to the service.
This is actually part of the Sirius Friends promotion which was launched in early September. Sirius one-ups the XM promotion by offering a 15% discount on radios for your friends. Sirius referrals also need to stay active for 60-days.
Regardless of the subtle details between the two, they're both good promotions.
But I'd still like to see something more targeted (say an MLB or NASCAR themed promotion). Take it maybe one step further and create widgets with the associated referral code that people can embed into their MySpace pages. Doesn't have to be anything crazy, just make it a "pull" rather than a "push" promotion.
