The included software is easy to use, although, sadly, won't work with an Apple computer (which is why I downgraded my review by one star). I solved that problem by bringing an old Windows-based computer out of retirement.
If you stray away from the company brand, your audience will notice and your on hold message will backfire. People will feel tricked as they wait to talk to an actual person, and by the time they reach someone real, they’ll be furious.

"Congratulations on Best of Show! I was in charge of the [Fifth District ADDY Awards] judging and was there when we played your On Hold Messaging. Very creative. I remember the judges commenting that it was a great use of an underutilized medium. Funny (and effective) stuff. Also goes to show that you don't need to go to the big city to get great creative work." - John McCafferty / McCafferty and Company Advertising

Watch the video and see how simple it is to create your own custom on-hold message productions.
On hold messages have been around for quite some time. Today, they have become even more useful to businesses in need of some communication organization. If you want customizable extensions, VoIP access and phone call analytics, you need to give on hold messaging a try.
One of the most valuable benefits of a Message On Hold program is its ability to help your customer service representatives. As a starting point for your Message On Hold, consider adding frequently asked questions to your on hold script. Ask your customer service reps what questions they hear again, and again, and again, they put those answers on hold. This way, you might answer questions before even talking to a customer.
For the average 4-minute on hold message, we recommend no more than 2 music tracks. Having too much variation in music can distract your audience. Longer programs can accommodate more music themes. To sample our music, please visit our production music library.

Combine with a Business Intro Message to provide menu options and assist in telephone navigation. As opposed to the passive nature of Messages On Hold, voice prompts are interactive. They are designed to bring out a physical reaction from the caller, a call to action. And because voice prompts are directive, it’s important they’re concise, well written, and recorded by a professional voice artist.
The following list is my own personal “Top 10” list of songs which will not shorten your hold time, but may add a little levity to it:
Our experiences over the years with OnHold Studio and in particular with Tom Harrison have been exceptional. Tom has provided timely communication and assisted us as a business in finding the right set up to meet our growing needs. In addition, Alexia has been fantastic, I can highly recommend their services for those that require it for their business. I really cannot recommend Onhold Studio enough. Brilliant service over the years and better still, very consistent. With best wishes, Glenn.
