“The service we have received from Media Music Now has been fantastic. The process was managed quickly and efficient from start to finish and the quality of what was an unintentionally tricky edit is seamless. We now have a professional sounding IVR and great on-hold marketing packages all for a very reasonable price." Steve Jones, CCC & SchoolCare
Hiring a specialized on hold messaging company can get expensive. As a more affordable alternative, you can use pre-made, ready to use on hold messages and music, like the examples we mentioned earlier.

4. SET A BUSINESS TONE BEFORE THE CALL CONNECTS. A set of on-hold messages & music helps to establish a tone for your business before the caller ever connects with an employee.
It’s very important to thank your customers for waiting. Being on hold is not a desirable experience for anyone. The least you can do it thank your clients for their time and to help them not feel neglected.
The cost of a message/music on hold system depends on whether you require physical media equipment. Digital MOH equipment can cost between $150 to $1,500, due to differences in the type of hardware and its capabilities (i.e. included phones, or phone line and extension capacity). If you already have on hold equipment, a virtual media MOH system is typically billed as a one time fee or yearly contract ($100 to $700). Vendors may charge a one time set up fee (up to $100) and charge additional monthly ($50 to $90) or quarterly fees ($75 to $95). Many offer free 30 day system trials. On Hold Messaging System Sample Costs InteliTouch MOH500E Music on Hold Adaptor for NON Ksu Phone - The Telecom Spot - $55 (free shipping) - On-hold audio capability for single or multi-line phones (music on hold for 1-4 lines & up to 16 extensions). Hold button activation requires a TEHMA device on each extension; purchase includes 2 TEHMAS.
If your phone system(s) or VOiP solution has a built-in MOH player, we can format and deliver your audio file to provide optimum performance. If you are using Cisco, Avaya, NEC, Samsung, or virtually any available system, we’ll determine and deliver exactly what you require.
Finally, take into account the reduction in quality that goes hand in hand with hold music. The audio quality is—at best—24 times worse than that from a CD. Yes, we just said CD. The public telephone network wasn’t built with HD music in mind. Thankfully for OnSIP customers, we provide HD radio for VoIP music on hold. That said, your company might have top of the line audio quality, but if clients call in from an old landline or cell, they might hear some distortion.
In 2012, the Audio Marketing Association (Europe) conducted a survey with the OHMA (On Hold Marketing Association in the US), into On Hold Messaging and its effectiveness as a marketing tool. 1555 clients responded from a broad range of industries.
Let’s drop some jargon: Caller retention. Customer satisfaction. Reducing churn. If you care about any of these, hold music should matter to you. Music affects mood. It can even have an effect on purchasing and decision-making behavior. Skip the sponsored Instagram posts of avocado toast; hold music is a bonafide influencer!
Here’s an example of some royalty-free music that we use both at CD quality and hold music quality.

Music Serves the Message. The whole purpose of playing music for someone on hold was originally to give a few moments between messages for the caller to absorb the message they just heard, for maximum recall later. Music serves the message, while also helping to pass the time. Not just any music will do, however; certain types of music calm a
