Our business phone app adds a stand-alone business phone number to your personal cell phone, preserving the privacy of your personal number. One cell phone – two phone numbers – a personal number and a business number. It’s easy, convenient, and adds tremendous value to the daily lives of small business owners and entrepreneurs.
Once your script is cleared and your voice and music chosen, we’ll record your on hold message with the voiceover, ensuring they have just the right tone and style for your business.

So what can we do to avoid inflicting further musical misery on our own customers while they’re patiently sitting on hold? We could just go back to playing a ringing sound, or an intermittent beep just to let people know they’re still connected, but that would be awfully dull. The best compromise is relatively simple electronic music that doesn't have too much going on as the ideal choice for hold music as it requires far less refined sound quality to get a decent rendition down a telephone connection.
With a strong commitment to customer service and quality on hold messages, AyerPlay has continued to be an industry leader, with over 7,000 clients nationwide. Let AyerPlay help you target your clients with effective on hold message programs for your business.

Until recently, it has not been possible to have cell phone music on hold and most people assume it is impossible to have any audio on hold, since there is no “hold button” on a cell phone. However, now there is a way to provide music on hold or messages on hold on your smart phone using the RingCentral virtual PBX service app.
The best hold music has few instruments and preferably only one. Simple music handles the change in quality better than a full orchestra arrangement. The latter gets distorted, particularly if it’s too loud for the phone to handle and clipping happens. No one wants to hear a dirge-like cacophony masquerading as “Pachelbel’s Canon in D.”
Our on hold services focus on making sure you make the most out of every marketing dollar.
We put together some resources for a mix of both free-to-use and royalty-free hold music:
If we learned anything from Napster, it’s that music doesn’t come for free. While there are a few free music sites out there, there are plenty of royalty-free websites for finding hold music, but keep in mind you may have to pay a subscription fee or download fee. (OnSIP subscribers can access three free music channels; read on for more details.) If you’re of the mind that your business could and should use Top 40 or other recent tracks, you will have to pay royalties for the right to use them.
There aren’t many things people hate more than being put on hold when they call your company. They expect to talk to a person and to be treated like one, and instead, they’re ignored and have to spend time waiting for someone to answer. It’s annoying, and it can cost you business. Yet, there are simple ways to keep people on the line if they’re on hold, and the best one is to write an on hold message script.

So how do you choose the right hold music? Start with what’s appropriate for your business. A funeral home wouldn’t blast the Bee Gees. A sports arena isn’t going to stream some easy listening to the fans. Know your audience, understand their mind space, and pick your music accordingly.
So that the customer will call you, right? If so, why are you missing the opportunity to let them know why you are the right choice?
One that makes time not seem like a constraint, one that has a mix on hold music and voice messaging sprinkled across.
Engage, attract and appeal to your callers while promoting your business and reinforcing your brand.
That said, despite having the tools to get it done, you may still be wondering how to actually sit down and create on hold messages. At its essence, your script is the business’s framework and what sets the stage for how callers interact with you. The only other 2 alternatives are your front door (if you have one) and your website.
