ON-HOLD MARKETING SYSTEMS®

On-Hold Marketing president Jeff McNeal is honored by the distinction of being included in the dedication of the Third Edition of Guerrilla Marketing - available now.
WE TRY NOT TO PUT OUR CALLERS ON HOLD
We applaud your efforts. We dont encourage our clients to put people
on hold either. But there are legitimate reasons why your callers are put
on hold, every day. Many callers prefer to wait a few moments if their
intended party is busy or on another extension. Perhaps the caller needs
information that has to be looked up, or they wish to wait while their
party is paged... You need never be ashamed for placing a caller on hold
when you employ On Hold Marketing.
WHY HIRE PROFESSIONALS TO MAKE OUR TAPES?
Legal issues aside, we have the skills, the tools and the know-how
to inspire caller confidence. No one should take a chance with their business
identity unless they have the experience and resources to deliver recordings
of the highest quality and presence. After all, your business is, quite
literally, on the line.
Since 1978 we have been providing major market copy writing and broadcast
audio production, making us one of the most experienced, trusted, reliable
and proven audio production houses in the country today. As for quality,
we hope that you'll compare our services and sound to the competition.
Even then, if you're not completely thrilled with our service or recordings,
you don't pay. If you can think of a more fair way to approach new customers,
please let us know. We're always open to new ideas...
HOW CAN WE JUSTIFY THE EXPENSE?
On-Hold Marketing, like any kind of marketing, is an investment,
not an expense. Besides, like all advertising your company engages in, the modest cost of our service is tax deductible! Youll find that On-Hold Marketing will pay for itself many times
over, by building customer loyalty, decreasing hang-ups and promoting a
higher awareness of your products and services. On-Hold Marketing will
also inspire customer confidence in your business. More and more, smart
companies are utilizing this unique self-promotional tool. Think of your
On-Hold Marketing System as a personal attendant that takes care of your
customers when you cant. The bottom line? We're in business to help increase
your profits. Perhaps that's why over 95% of our customers remain with
us year after year. On-Hold Marketing really works
when implemented properly. And we do it right.
Our full service includes on site music licensing, complimentary use
of state-of-the-art digital playback equipment, script writing, professional
voice recording and background music selected from
our in-house library of over one thousand fully orchestrated themes
produced by the same composers who record music used by the motion picture
and television industries.
WHAT ARE MUSIC LICENSING FEES?
The commercial use or rebroadcast of copyrighted material (even the
radio on hold) requires the payment of royalties to a third party such
as ASCAP or BMI. In this way, the composers of the work receive their royalties.
The music we provide is licensed on your behalf through On-Hold
Marketing Systems directly from the publishers that create them and there
are no additional music license fees required for you to pay. The licensing
is included in our small monthly fee.
WHAT
KIND OF EQUIPMENT DO WE NEED?
All you need is a telephone! We provide everything else; digital playback
equipment, easy installation instructions and a nationwide 800 number to
call if you need assistance. If you have a standard business telephone
system with a KSU, you'll need music on hold (MOH) capabilites. If you
just have a single or two line telephone, we offer an exciting new product
that will provide you with high quality MOH capabilites. Our service is
complete and there are no installation fees or hidden charges.
OKAY, BUT WHAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE?
We feel confident
that we truly offer our customers the greatest value for their marketing
investment by generating results. But don't just take our word
for that. We wouldn't expect you to. See
what our customers have to say. Our rates are comparable to what you'd
pay for the cost of music licensing alone -- and we don't require you to
pay for expensive equipment, either. The actual costs are determined by
the service option you select, but start as low as $39 a month! For the whole story, just zip yourself over to our Rates and Options page. Or better yet, to receive a personal quote by fax or email to fill your specific needs, simply fill out our Quickstart order form for a custom
bid based on your criterion. Remember this important fact: The
net cost of our service, if implemented properly, will be negligible,
since our programming is intended to increase your profits by promoting
a higher awareness of your products or services. On-Hold Marketing is an
investment that truly pays for itself and then some.
ARE WE LOCKED INTO A LONG COMMITMENT?
Not at all. We don't do business that way. Evaluate
our services risk-free for 30 days with no obligation. The only
way to determine the true quality and value of our service is to try it
for yourself. Then, subscribe only for as long as our service produces
the desired results. No hassles, no lengthy committments. Fair enough?
SOUNDS GREAT! HOW DO WE GET STARTED?
Simply fill out and return our Quickstart order
form and well have your system delivered with a generic recording
to get you started in just three business days from the time we receive
payment from your VISA or MasterCard. A bit longer if you're paying by
company check. At the same time, well contact you for custom scripting
information. Our writing staff will then produce a custom script and fax
it to you within 24 hours for review. Once you give us the nod, well record
and ship your custom tape within 48 hours. Its that easy! If you belong to a large corporate or service organization, we'll custom design a unique on hold program just for you! Click on the California Association of Nurserymen logo (above right) to see what we mean!
