Frequently Asked Questions
How long should on-hold messaging be?
Most on-hold messaging programs run between 2 and 4 minutes and loop automatically. Your callers will never hear dead air or repetition too quickly. That’s enough time to promote specials, highlight your online ordering, and answer common questions when they are waiting.
Can messages be updated?
Absolutely. Messages can be updated anytime to reflect new specials, holiday hours, limited-time offers, or seasonal promotions. Whether you’re running a weekend deal or a catering push, we make it easy to keep your on-hold messaging updated and relevant.
Will this work with my phone system?
Yes. Our on-hold messaging service is compatible with the majority of phone systems and VoIP platforms used by restaurants and QSRs today. If you’re unsure about compatibility, our team will check your setup during onboarding and make sure everything plays clearly and consistently.
Do I need to write the script myself?
Not at all. You simply tell us what to promote, your specials, add-ons, loyalty programs, or seasonal offers, and our team handles the scripting and professional voice recording for you. Everything is written with pizza and QSR customers in mind, so it sounds natural, not like a generic ad.
How quickly can I get on-hold messaging up and running?
It is faster than you would expect. Once you share your priorities and messaging goals, we handle scripting, recording, and setup. The service is live within a short turnaround.
