Our Company, The Phoenix Pattern & Tool Co Ltd, have been customers of Birmingham Telecom since they started out. They have replaced our phone system 3 times, recently bringing us into the 21st Century. The 3CX system that we have now is user friendly and the app enables working from home much more convenient. Special thanks to Andy for always getting the right product to suit us and Shaun for the time and effort put in with us during and after the installation, Dan and Lee for attention given quickly to any of our queries. A great job, I have no hesitation recommending Birmingham Telecom.
Talk to your customer before you even pick up the phone. On hold messages are one of the best ways to communicate with your customer audience.
We can create tailored on hold messages for you. Using the information you want to convey, the products and services you want to showcase, and the deals and offers you want to promote. We offer a totally customisable and collaborative service, which combines the knowledge you have of your business and industry and our specialist expertise.
-88% of callers preferred on-hold messages to other hold options, and 16 – 20% made a purchase based on an on-hold offer.
Verbal Content – generally, you should use 100 words to make up 1 minute of content produced with background music. In other words, one to two paragraphs per minute. The topic can range from product promotions to general company information.
Unfortunately, it gets worse. Due to general sloppiness when it comes to setting the volume level for music on hold, a form of distortion known as “clipping” can appear, and regularly does if you’re willing to believe personal anecdotal evidence. If you want to know about the science behind clipping, then Wikipedia will tell you everything you need to know, but for those of us who have things to get on with, we can get by just knowing that when something is played too loud down a phone line, the sound starts to distort and sound really horrible.
“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.”
To find about our friendly service with simple pricing (and no crazy contract)...
Don’t allow their holding time to be a waste of time for them or for you as a business.
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
