Frequently Asked Questions
New to audio messaging? Here are answers to some common questions to help you understand this powerful tool.
What is the difference between on-hold music and on-hold messaging?
On-hold music keeps callers from hanging up by playing soothing songs. On-hold messaging uses a voice to give them info while they wait. Combining both makes for the best customer experience.
How often should I update my on-hold messages or in-store promotions?
We recommend updating your messaging at least once a season to keep things fresh. If you have weekly specials or new products arriving often, updating monthly is even better.
Do I need a license to play music on my phone or in my store?
Yes, to legally play music in a business, you need performance rights licenses. Mood Media handles it all for you, so your business stays fully compliant and protected from fines.
Can I use professional voice actors for my messaging?
Absolutely. We have a network of professional voice talent to give you a broadcast-quality sound. Choosing the right voice helps your small business sound polished and trustworthy.
Can I use AI for my audio messaging?
Yes. Mood Media’s AI Messaging Copilot is a great tool for small businesses. It makes creating high-quality audio messages quick and affordable.
How does in-store audio messaging influence purchases?
It speaks to your customers right when they are ready to buy. It encourages action, highlights your promos, and introduces new products, leading to a measurable lift in sales.
Can I integrate messaging with my promotions?
Yes, using our platform, you can schedule messages to match your sales calendar. This ensures your customers always hear about the items currently available to buy.
