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.
Hiring a specialized on hold messaging company can get expensive. As a more affordable alternative, you can use pre-made, ready to use on hold messages and music, like the examples we mentioned earlier.
-88% of callers surveyed want to hear product information on-hold and will stay on the line longer if provided with this information – roughly 16-20% said that they have purchased additional products based on information they heard while on-hold.
I agree with you. The music phone service provider use is never the best! Like you, when I switch to my calendar on iPhone and ask my caller to wait while I do that, it would be great to have one of my iPod tracks play to him until I pressed the green bar again to return to the call. Surely one could set that up independently of the phone service provider: just a matter of substituting my music choice for my voice until I clicked back off hold??

Whether it’s when being transferred through to someone else, or simply waiting for the correct person to become available, being on hold presents a marketing window of opportunity to sell additional products and services, enhance your branding efforts, offer a more professional image or provide helpful information.
