“Providing information on hold results in a 40% increase in retention of callers on hold... a 15% increase in inquiries... and a 12% direct increase for products and services mentioned on hold.” – US West Communications Study
Aren’t these on hold messages a lot better than being left in silence or just listening to the radio? Rather than being frustrated about waiting you’re being told exactly what you need to know. This saves both the caller and the business time all while increasing the likelihood of a successful deal.
For a more modern example of a bad choice of hold music, let’s take an example I have to endure on a regular basis, Month of Sundays by Passenger. At CD quality it’s got lots of interesting stuff going on, which you’d imagine might be ideal to distract someone from the fact they’re being kept on hold for ages. However, playing it over the phone it’s simply too busy. As soon as the brass and backing vocals kick in it just sounds yuck.

Digital technologies have made Telephone On-Hold Messages more reliable than ever! Whether you have an enterprise phone system or a couple of retail phones hooked up to a simple wall port, we have a solution that covers you!
We have a few examples below we’d like to share so you can customize your on hold messages based on your needs and industry:
83% of callers who are put into a queue without custom on-hold features will hang up after just 15 seconds. 36% of these people will never call back again. With Custom hold messaging you can reduce hang-up rates for your business and engage callers while they wait.
While we are technically unable to put hold music directly onto a cell phone, there IS a way to have this feature and many other functions of an expensive phone system, using a cloud-based phone setup and a simple application on your smartphone. Whether you work on your cell phone exclusively, or you need an office phone (or phones) in addition
"I just wanted to tell you that I stumbled onto your website for Humor On Hold™, and I listened to every recording. Your work is hilarious and it brightened my day. And who doesn't want a compliment from a random stranger on the Internet? So, thanks." - A.H.
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.
