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.

If your target market is primarily business professionals, then a more articulate choice of words would be more suitable.
