Above all you must encourage the caller to remain on the line. Provide reassurance to your clients that an agent will be available soon and don’t forget to convey the idea that their time is valued and their call is important.
*This does not include phones purchased off the shelf at office supply stores such as Staples and Officemax. For the most part, these phones do not have the Message on Hold capability built-in. Add-ons are available for some models but their functionality can be problematic or inconvenient for the user. The best course of action is to upgrade to either a basic key phone system or one of the new virtual phone systems, for which Holdcom is a key audio production supplier.

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?
You’ve heard the basic format for on hold messages before: “Thank you for holding. A representative will be with you shortly…” But there’s far more to an on hold message than the same robotic voice over and over.
Let’s face it, customers who call to a business don’t want to be on-hold. The best on hold message is no hold at all!
Instead of writing to inform people or to entertain them, you need to write your script as a way to create a conversation. You need to imagine what someone would say to another person and then put it on the page. Don’t be afraid if it feels like you’re talking to yourself — that just means you’re writing well.
Here’s something else you can do with your mobile phone – it can help you run your business, whether you’re a team of one or many. Today, most business owners stay in touch with customers using both an office phone and a mobile phone. Because they don’t want to mix personal and business communications or give out their personal phone number, they typically buy a separate cell phone. LinkedPhone is changing that – and saving business owners a lot of money in the process.
Where this creates an extra snag with music on hold is that the loudest part of a song doesn’t typically come in until the final chorus or reprise. This means that if you just listen to the first 10 seconds to check that your new hold music is working, then chances are you’ll be blissfully unaware that three minutes into holding (just as customers are beginning to feel irritated anyway), you start playing a sound like fingernails on a blackboard to them.
