If you still can’t find the right hold music or are lost among all the possibilities, you can create your own radio station that streams any music you’d like to your callers or upload your own MP3 files.
-88% of callers preferred on-hold messages to other hold options, and 16 – 20% made a purchase based on an on-hold offer.

On hold messages can be recorded for many purposes, such as promoting your business, answering FAQs or announcing important customer service information. It's important to be clear in the message you are trying to get across. Confusion leads to disengagement and reflects badly on the brand. Determining your callers' wait times is necessary to determine the required length of the on-hold message. Making the recording too short can lead to the message being played too many times. This can be repetitive and lose the caller's attention while they hold.
Need options to load multiple files to play messages or music on hold, with much larger limits. We like to have messages from different docs on different topics (different types of cleanings, why xrays are so important, etc) and mix and match (periodically change what is 1st). It's a pain to try to combine to one file PLUS the max file size doesn't accommodate them. Susan commented · November 27, 2019 9:51 AM · Flag as inappropriateFlag as inappropriate · Edit… · Delete…

I need more options for hold music. Having fast classical guitar in minor key is not what our anxiety patients want to hear. Slower, happy jazz would be better. Anna commented · April 1, 2019 5:21 PM · Flag as inappropriateFlag as inappropriate · Edit… · Delete…

A typical Message on Hold program is 4 minutes long. Because a voice over talent typically reads between 100 and 112 words per minute, the script for a four-minute program can be up to 400 words, allowing for four to six paragraphs or messages, interspersed by brief intervals of music. Longer audio storage and program lengths are available if necessary.
