Hey there trendsetter! You could be the first review for Custom On-Hold Messages.
Had an urgent recording request and Sophie at Messages on Hold was onto it for me straight away. On this occasion, she was able to make my ridiculous next day timeline request and I'm very happy with the results of the 7 recordings! Great customer service the whole way through. Highly recommend. 7 months ago

Once you enroll in the Service, you enjoy access to our complete content library.
This is your opportunity to demonstrate professionalism and communicate directly to your caller. You should provide as many sections as required, depending on how long you expect the average caller to be on hold. Usually, 6-10 sections of dialogue are sufficient.
Choose on hold music that suits your business or utilise customer waiting time with tailored advertising solutions. Your business’ on hold communications could be helping you sell or educate callers to the services and products you provide. Invest in the professional on hold messaging services from us today. 70% of all calls are placed on hold. The average on hold time is a staggering 43+ seconds. 90% of new callers hang up after 40 seconds without a hold message. 34% of callers that hang up will not call back. Callers stay on the line up to 3 times longer because of our tailored messages.
The decision to update your on-hold message depends largely on the content you are sharing. If you are sharing content that includes short-term promotions, this information will need frequent updating so consumers are always aware of the status of any offers. However, if you’re only sharing general information about your standard products, your operating hours and location, then the decision to update the message can be more reliant on metrics.
This is an easy and effective way to improve your business image while providing greater value to the 85% of callers who prefer an on hold service with commercials over silence.
You’ve heard the basic format for on hold messages before: “Thank you for holding. A representative will be with you shortly…” But there’s far more to an on hold message than the same robotic voice over and over.
Forming first impressions is an important part of building strong relationships with people. Many times, the first contact between a customer and your business is on the phone. It is estimated that 70% of business callers experience some type of hold time and that time spent on hold can be the first impression of your company. This can influence whether your caller chooses to do business with you.
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.

2. YOU HAVE A CAPTIVE AUDIENCE. The time that your callers spend on hold is time when they are a captive audience. Providing messaging when callers are on hold helps occupy and entertain them to some degree; and most importantly, your business can make the most of that captive customer time.
It would be helpful to be able to choose a greeting for the voicemail override on the online portal and the pc phone app instead of just on the mobile app. The doctor's cell phone is connected to weave, but we do not have office cell phones. The doctor wants the front office staff to be able to handle changing the office phones and greetings without having to ask to use his personal cell phone and he does not want to require the front office staff to connect their personal cell phones to Weave in order to choose a greeting for the Voicemail override. Please consider adding this feature to the online portal. Thanks. Kristina Tague commented · November 27, 2019 9:28 AM · Flag as inappropriateFlag as inappropriate · Edit… · Delete…
