    How We Create Messages On Hold?

    Getting to Know the Industry
    To kick things off, we dive into the client’s world by learning what kind of business they’re in and who they serve. This helps us get a real feel for their vibe—whether it’s fun and upbeat, professional and corporate, serious and informative, or warm and friendly. Understanding their tone and audience from the start allows us to create audio messaging that truly reflects their brand personality and connects with their callers in a meaningful way.

    Deep Dive Into Your Brand
    Next, we take a virtual tour of the client’s website to get a clear sense of the brand they’ve already built. This step helps us understand their visual identity, messaging style, and overall tone. We pay close attention to the language they use, the values they highlight, and how they communicate with their audience. All of this guides us in fine-tuning our writing style to ensure the on-hold messaging feels like a natural extension of their brand—consistent, authentic, and on point.

    Creating Content
    Once we’ve got a solid understanding of the client’s brand, our wordsmiths get to work. We craft engaging paragraphs of content that align with their industry, reflect the tone of their website, and even echo the personality found in their social media presence. Every word is chosen with purpose—setting the stage for selecting the perfect voice and talent. This ensures the final production feels cohesive, authentic, and completely in tune with the client’s overall identity.

    Teamwork with the Client
    We’re all about collaboration. Once the initial script is ready, we share a draft with the client and genuinely look forward to hearing their thoughts. Their feedback is invaluable—it helps us fine-tune the tone, language, and messaging to make sure everything aligns perfectly with their audio brand. This back-and-forth ensures the final script not only sounds great but truly reflects the heart of their business. After all, no one knows their audience better than they do, and we’re here to bring that voice to life.

    Picking the Perfect Soundtrack
    We also love offering our recommendations for voice talent and music options to help bring the script to life. Each voice and music track carries its own personality, so we carefully consider what best fits the client’s brand—whether it’s calm and professional, upbeat and friendly, or anything in between. That said, the final decision is always in the client’s hands. We’re here to guide the process and ensure the audio branding feels like a perfect fit, but ultimately, it’s their voice we’re helping to shape.

    Polishing the Script
    Once we get the green light, our writers dive back in to add the final polish to the script. This stage is all about refining the details—adjusting the flow, tweaking word choices, and structuring sentences to ensure the script sounds natural and engaging when spoken aloud. It’s not just about what looks good on paper—it’s about what sounds great in the ears of your callers. These subtle adjustments make a big difference in delivering a smooth, professional VoiceOver that truly connects.

    Bring it to Life and Share
    Now, it’s showtime! Once the script is finalized, we slot it into our production queue and bring it to life. Our team gets to work—recording with the chosen voice talent, editing for clarity, and mixing in music and sound elements to create a polished, professional audio file. When everything sounds just right, we upload it directly to the client’s phone system or deliver it in their preferred format. The entire process is efficient and seamless—typically completed within just five business days.

    COHM is where success takes center stage. With our reliable systems, you can build unshakeable customer satisfaction and forge lasting client relationships. Join our community of thriving clients today. Experience the COHM edge and unleash your business’s true potential.

    The Impact of Being On Hold

    Now, let’s talk about the real impact of being on hold. While it might seem like a small part of the customer journey, the truth is—it matters more than most people realize. In fact, the statistics speak for themselves: on-hold time is not just a waiting period, it’s a valuable opportunity to engage, inform, and leave a lasting impression.

    Boosting Customer Retention

    Did you know that customers are more likely to remain on the line when they hear engaging audio productions rather than silence? Our services boost client retention by up to 40%, helping to keep your callers engaged and connected.

    Effective Marketing Tool

    On-hold marketing leads to an average 28% increase in inquiries and requests for service and product information. This clearly demonstrates its effectiveness as a powerful marketing tool that enhances customer engagement and interest.

    Seizing Opportunities

    Approximately 34% of callers who disconnect from a call do not attempt to reconnect. This proves how important it is to make the most of every customer interaction. This starts the moment a client is waiting. Using creative marketing tools will keep them on the line so your team can close the sale.

    Preferential Treatment

    Did you know that 85% of clients prefer hearing music during wait times rather than silence? This simple detail can make a significant difference in customer satisfaction. By incorporating captivating audio productions into your on-hold messaging, you can effectively engage your customers, reduce perceived wait times, and keep them interested and informed during this crucial period. Whether it’s soothing background music or informative messages, enhancing the waiting experience can help retain customers and leave a positive impression of your brand.

    Engaging Audio Productions

    Studies indicate that when confronted with silence, 90% of callers disconnect the call within 40 seconds. This emphasizes the need for engaging audio productions that keep your callers interested and connected while they wait on hold. The end goal is to keep them on the line, longer.

    Importance of a Great Impression

    Did you know that 94% of marketing budgets are invested in getting that crucial business phone call? If people hang up the call, businesses lose their investment. This highlights just how essential it is to make a positive impression during waiting times. Using on hold advertising improves customer support and experience.
