Company creates on-hold messaging that improves customer retention and sales
Newbury Park, CA  Phone On-Hold, the leader in on-hold messaging solutions, has announced the recording of its 25,000th spot, an on-holdmessage for Costco Wholesale Corporation. From its headquarters/studios in Newbury Park, CA, the company creates on-hold messaging that improves customer retention and sales. The spots may take an educational tone (“Did you know…”) or upsell specific products and services.
Phone On-Hold’s spots average 6 minutes in length but can range from 3 to 32-minute loops. The recordings use professional writers, actors and technicians to create audio productions that can include sound effects and background scores. Client companies link with Phone On-Hold through the Internet to activate, schedule and rotate their custom on-hold recordings.
Company founder and President Peter Turpel began his career in the radio industry. His experience as a radio announcer and station manager translated into Phone On-Hold’s business model of using audio production talent to convey marketing messages during “the point of opportunity,” a customer phoning a company to have a sales conversation.
“Companies spend huge amounts of money to get the phone to ring, then they waste those final moments with the customer. That’s why on-hold messaging is so important,” said Turpel. “When your customer is on-hold, he has made a buying decision. There are no other distractions. Your company is top-of-mind. Messages you send to the customer at that exact moment will have impact. It is the perfect time to reinforce your image and use suggestive seller to boost the pending order.”
Phone On-Hold creates on-hold messages from a broad range of companies and industries throughout the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.
