On-hold Alternatives?

Callers never appreciate the Silent treatment

Radio on hold

"Silence is golden…” Except when you are waiting for service, or wondering if your call was abandon or disconnected!"
Clearly, the alternatives to on hold messaging and music are not your best bet. What’s most important about choosing an on-hold solution is that 85 percent of callers prefer information on hold to other options (Sales and Marketing Magazine). Callers will stay on hold longer with information, as opposed to hearing silence or music only (Connections). According to a U.S. West Communications study, when callers were provided information on hold, it resulted in a 45 percent increase in caller retention, a 15 percent increase in inquiries, and a 12 percent increase in requests for products and services mentioned during on-hold messages. The bottom line one in five respondents said they made a purchase or decision based on information they heard while on hold (Telemarketing Magazine survey).
