Messaging on hold is an excellent tool for keeping callers and clients updated with company news and goings-on. Recordings can be used to update customers on changes to opening hours and scheduling, service delivery information, daily events and much more.
UPDATE: I have had this unit for almost 2 years now. It is connected to a UPS battery backup. I has literally been running non-stop since I set it up over a year and a half ago.
Message on Hold starts with a great script. A basic script consultation is included with every order. One of our script consultants will review your script and verify pronunciations of any special terminology, as well as provide suggested verbiage improvements, if necessary. For custom script orders, your consultant will take your ideas and source materials and transform them into customized scripting that will engage your callers. Our experienced staff will work with you to create, revise, and finalize your audio script so that it’s ready for studio production. We’ve helped businesses of all sizes, and within various industries, ensure their scripting will keep their callers informed and engaged.
2. YOU HAVE A CAPTIVE AUDIENCE. The time that your callers spend on hold is time when they are a captive audience. Providing messaging when callers are on hold helps occupy and entertain them to some degree; and most importantly, your business can make the most of that captive customer time.
In 1962, inventor and entrepreneur Alfred Levy found a loose wire touching a metal girder at his factory. It amplified the broadcast signal from the radio station next door and transmitted the audio through the loose wire to calls on hold. Four years later he patented his work, and music on hold was born.
