More On Hold Message Samples. Our custom on hold messages with music will work with all phone systems including PBX, Voip, Hosted or Cloud phones. If you have “non-system”, cordless, single or two line telephones you will need to purchase an on hold adapter.
On-hold messaging is also great time to encourage consumers to spend.
