Though it can be convenient and cost-effective, don’t let Bob from the copy room record your telephone voice messages. Phone communications represent a crucial component of a successful business. Whoever you pick will become the voice of your brand and business. When choosing a voice for your on-hold recordings, your target audience should be the most important factor. Who would one of your prospective clients take advice from? Who would they find the most captivating and trustworthy? Whether they’d prefer a conversation with a friend, command from an authority figure or advice from their mom, keep your audience’s needs at the forefront when listening to voice samples. Concept & Copywriting Directing & Producing Latest Audio Formats I'm a small business. Do I need professional recorded messages? Yes, you do! The size of your business has no bearing on its quality and professionalism. Whether you have a team of 200 employees or you're the one and only, having a professionally recorded message puts your business in a different category. This level of quality and attention to detail is a testament to your professionalism and dedication. On-hold programs vary from industry to industry. A doctor may tell you what insurance coverage they accept, while an auto body shop may want to share directions for after-hours drop-off information. Regardless of your industry, there are a few things all businesses should consider including in their on-hold program: Of course! In most case, we do recommend the use of music. Music is essential to most productions. At Migrate Sound, we spend countless hours looking for the right piece of music. When the music is right, your audience will go from being interested to being attentive and absorbed into your story or message. This is a subjective matter and can only be answered comparatively with other businesses providing the same services. We are probably more expensive than those online services. Some of these guys will sell you a fully produced message for $25. That said, we are definitely less expensive than those large Hollywood studios who charge a whopping $350 an hour. We are a small business in Santa Clarita, California. We care about the quality of our product, and more importantly our clients. We're happy when you're happy and we will do whatever it takes to get you there. Audio is our business and we've been doing it for many years.

Having an on hold message or on hold recordings for your business makes all the difference.

I agree with you. The music phone service provider use is never the best! Like you, when I switch to my calendar on iPhone and ask my caller to wait while I do that, it would be great to have one of my iPod tracks play to him until I pressed the green bar again to return to the call. Surely one could set that up independently of the phone service provider: just a matter of substituting my music choice for my voice until I clicked back off hold??

Record the clips of what you want your callers to hear, then use an audio editing software to arrange the clips and add background music.
Depending on how large your business is, you may want more than one on hold messaging option. If you have several departments to take care of, you should consider the customizable extensions feature available through most systems. This feature allows you to craft specific messages for various phone extensions throughout your organization. If you need to provide different information to different callers, this is the best way to do it.
