How about an on-hold message combined with a custom jingle for your business? Remember, jingles create a tune that all your customers will remember is your tune. Even with just our licensed music, your message on-hold means your customers will remember that catchy tune along with “Our Company won the Gold Star for International shipping” or “We now have the new 4K TVs for sale”. These are the kinds of advertising tools that Advanced Productions encourages your business to use —and we provide for you!

message. Important notice. Since the phones can be used anywhere in the world, Emergency 911 will not always work as intended. If the phone system is in Reno and the desk phone is in Phoenix and you dial 911, Reno will get the ambulance.

USA Business Telephone Today conducted a survey of 30,000 callers to study the effects of hold music, or the lack of it, for a single minute. More than half the callers who were put on hold without any auditory stimulation hung up. The silence affected the rest of the group’s perception of time: More than 27 percent thought their wait time exceeded five minutes, and 18 percent thought it exceeded three minutes. Only 3 percent judged their wait time to be close to the actual one-minute timeframe. All of the callers in the study had listened to dead air for only 60 seconds.

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.
