The way we approach musical genres today is much more fluid, from both the musician and the listener’s perspectives. Thanks to the age of MP3 players and streaming services, we can group music by other metrics than language and style or what’s popular in our specific region.
On-hold messages let your customers know you haven't forgotten about them, and they are also a great advertising tool. While your customers are on hold you can tell them why your company is the best, or tell them about new product offerings. You pay only once for production, then the air time is free!

Messages On Hold began as a one-man operation out of CEO and owner, Kym Illman's spare bedroom in 1988 and has since evolved to become a creative global marketing company.

We have an old at&t Merlin phone system and that could be the cause of volume issue but not sure. If you buy this box and volume is too low for cell phones, I recommend buying the IBOOST to solve this problem.
We needed a new 18 line telephone system for our purpose built factory. Birmingham Telecom were extremely helpful, knowledgable, and good value. The installation and training went smoothly and we are very happy with the Panasonic system we purchased - it has worked without any problems since the day it was installed and we have been able to fine tune the configuration to make it work just as we want. If your looking for a provider, I thoroughly recommend Birmingham Telecom

On hold messages and ads are growing in popularity, but there are still plenty of businesses in Australia that don’t realise that their phone is a marketing tool. Think about it – having professional and marketing-driven on hold messages is like having a really great salesperson on the phone with your customers every time they call.
"I selected Binkelman's [On Hold Marketing] because of the unexpected comedy, quirkiness and edge! You actually want to wait on hold and hear what is said next. The script's humor is dry and sharp. The [music] and voices are catchy. I think it's very funny and creative. It paints Binkelman's personality as being comedic, but humble. I also like to see creative pushing boundaries and not too afraid to be a little on edge." - Shaun Culbertson / American Advertising Federation Judge
Avoid beeps and radio silence. Once a customer has been placed on hold on radio silence, the customer tends to hang up in less than 40 seconds because that customer thinks, "I've been forgotten".
As an example of what that actually means, let’s listen to the popular hold music staple that is Pachelbel’s Canon in D. At CD quality it sounds soothing. As hold music it starts to grate very, very quickly.
"We don't add the expense of sales reps, account managers and lengthy contracts. We simply provide top class voice over, audio production and music on hold free of PRS, BMI or ASCAP fees."
There are three parts to a perfect on hold message: the script, the speaking tone and the written tone. And of course, there is also the music, which plays a big part in representing your business brand.
