“The human brain reacts differently to different types of music, eliciting very specific emotional, physical, and behavioral responses, almost as if music were a map, communicating emotions to a brain even better than words. As in conversation, different inputs stimulate nearly all of the brain.”

Suddenly, your optimism regarding the call takes a nose dive as your Customer Service Representative says flatly, “I’ll have to put you on hold while I look into this for you.” Or, worse yet, “Let me transfer you to the right department. You’ve reached the [insert the name of a department that has nothing to do with your needs] department.”
3. HELP PROCESS CALLS FASTER ONCE THEY CONNECT. If you add preparatory information to your Message-On-Hold messages, you can actually improve the speed at which calls are processed and improve call handling time metrics.
3) An experienced and reputable on-hold messaging provider should have a variety of male or female voice talents and with sample on hold demos for each.
One that makes time not seem like a constraint, one that has a mix on hold music and voice messaging sprinkled across.

At times, a client’s messaging calls for a very specific voice, and we’ve had good success finding just the right voice for the job, even if it’s someone we’ve never worked with before.
-When callers are presented with On Hold Messaging vs. silence or a radio commercial they will stay on hold longer, they are more likely to exhibit interest in the product advertised, they are more likely to retain information, and they are less agitated.

Why wouldn’t you give the same attention to the tool that keeps your callers on the line? "As a species, if you like, we feel like music helps us. That's the only way you can explain it persisting for so long." –Professor Adrian North,Head of the School of Psychology and Speech Pathology at Curtin University, Huffpost.com How to Choose On Hold Music for Your Business
I haven't used this device for an extended period, but since there are no mechanical parts, I expect that it will last. We have been using a professional on hold service for many years at about $60/month. The box that the professional company gave us sounded great when customers would call from a Lan Line. But, when calling from cell phone the voice messages were lower volume and the music would sound horrible. Music keeps cutting in and out and sounds very staticky. So we decided to save some $ and cancel our subscription and buy this unit. We are using the default music and voice messages that came preloaded instead of doing our own music and messages.
Our team will guide you through our extensive music library where you can choose your favorite type of music, from jazz to rock, to urban and holiday music and everything in between.
