Whether it’s when being transferred through to someone else, or simply waiting for the correct person to become available, being on hold presents a marketing window of opportunity to sell additional products and services, enhance your branding efforts, offer a more professional image or provide helpful information.
Call hold/call wait is a network feature (while it is activated by the handset) as such any music would be supplied by your carrier, there should be some there but chances are it's some wonderfull elevator style stuff (I'm partial to Brahms myself 😉 ).

Hi, is there an app for android phones? when I put a caller on hold, they hear music until I return! If so what is it called? "Can i add music on hold on cell phone?~when i put someone..." "When you place a call on hold on your cell phone..."
You will most likely run into the typical Stalingrad-esque repeating messages that state how important your call is to the business. It is only slightly less annoying to have some form of default music that plays on a loop, and gives you the virtual experience of being stuck in an elevator, listening to muzak ad infinitum.
No business can afford to run the risk of customers hanging up. That’s when investing in professional on hold messages saves you money and wins you extra business. Call us on 1800 837 844 today and take advantage of our FREE business message demo.
How to Format Your On Hold Script. For an average IVR phone system where customers are on hold for 1-3 minutes, it’s wise to have at least two courtesy messages and two marketing messages, with each message timing out to precisely 30 seconds (:30). Hold music should play in between the messages for 30 seconds (:30).
We collaborate with your business to create an on hold message that’s specifically designed for your needs.
Instead of writing to inform people or to entertain them, you need to write your script as a way to create a conversation. You need to imagine what someone would say to another person and then put it on the page. Don’t be afraid if it feels like you’re talking to yourself — that just means you’re writing well.
A study by Infomax inc found that callers tend to stay online for 25% longer if there is a mix of on hold messaging and not just plain music. So you need to mix it up.
Easy On Hold Founder Tim Brown says that the new scheduling mechanism is what makes the Easy On Hold streaming message unique. "The traditional four-minute on-hold loop, where several paragraphs are edited over one piece of music, is an outdated approach," he says. "Our service puts together a library of individual spots that can be told when to play and how often. You can schedule start and stop dates, too, so old content is never heard."
