"Hilarious!" - Jennifer Weaver / American Advertising Federation 5th District ADDY Awards Judge
At times, a client’s messaging calls for a very specific voice, and we’ve had good success finding just the right voice for the job, even if it’s someone we’ve never worked with before.

Record the clips of what you want your callers to hear, then use an audio editing software to arrange the clips and add background music.
And the best part is that you don’t need to write your on hold message script to be so formal. The point of an on hold message is to keep them on the line, not to bore them to death! So, you might as well try to have some fun with it and make your customers laugh while they wait.
Hold music is one of those subjects that unites people from all walks of life. No matter where you’re from or what your background is, the prospect of five minutes listening to poorly chosen music while your telephone gradually makes a painful imprint on the side of your head fills everyone with a justifiable sense of dread.
When Big Surf Waterpark wanted to enhance their Caller Experience, while making sure it stayed true to their brand, they asked Prosound to create the bridge between the real world, and the phone world. We were able to give voice to their shark mascot, Gil the Shark, in this fun and engaging On-Hold message. This particular message uses a variety of voices to keep the message fresh and interesting. Brian Holsopple stars as the voice of Gil the Shark!

Let’s face it, customers who call to a business don’t want to be on-hold. The best on hold message is no hold at all!
Someone is late for the conference call, so the music starts. "Well, I've been sitting here all day," the song begins, sort of croony, with a vaguely country affect — the kind of opening that leads you to expect there is, somewhere, an ex-lover who probably isn't coming back. A certain variety of pining. But then, a few bars in, a turn: "Yes I'm waiting on this conference call, all alone. And I'm on hold, yes I'm on hold... I hope it's not all day, ey!"

For example, you can offer customers who spend more than $99 free shipping, customers who order 3 items a 4th item free, etc. Think “upsell” with your ads on hold – you’ve got the customer on the line patiently waiting to (hopefully) spend money.
