KALAMAZOO, Mich., Aug. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Easy On Hold®, the exclusive distributor of Brandi Music, announced today that it has curated a music channel for on-hold queues that solves a major issue for contact center managers: how to offer vocal hit music that doesn't offend callers who are waiting on hold. The channel, called Pop Smile, is designed to offer an enjoyable, positive listening experience for callers of any age and background.

Key Points: 
  • The channel, called Pop Smile, is designed to offer an enjoyable, positive listening experience for callers of any age and background.
  • Songs with suggestive phrases, innuendo, violence, drug use, profanity, and more can trigger callers on hold.
  • "Callers on hold are more focused on lyrics than they would be if that same song was background music in, say, a retail store.
  • So, we can understand why contact centers are wary of offering any kind of vocal music, yet they don't want to be limited to 'safe but boring' instrumental music."
