This montage of Humor On Hold content features messages created for several clients. It was unceremoniously smooshed together by a special machine that does that sort of thing. All the individual chunks were produced in the BusinessVoice studios, which haven't had shag carpet on the walls for a few years now. Amy and Scott are the primary announcers.

Don't worry! If this Humor On Hold production leads to your temporary incontinence, we'll gladly mop up the puddle. Scott wrote the copy and provided several voices. Amy plays the happy mom in segment two and the hard-boiled employee in the finale. The whole mess was put together with the help of Recording Engineer Chris Zaharias in the BusinessVoice studios. Sadly, three donkeys were damaged beyond recognition during production.

Upon hearing his new humorous On Hold Marketing production that Scott wrote, produced and voiced through BusinessVoice, Lakeland Auto and Marine President Chris Hamann called Scott to complain.  

“We get people who call all the time and WANT to be put on hold," Chris said. "Vendors and customers call us and just laugh. We actually changed our phone set-up to feature the On Hold Marketing. The feedback has been absolutely fantastic. I keep thinking [the productions] can’t get better, but this one topped them all. I think it’s just phenomenal. I really mean this - it’s truly been enjoyable working with you. I’m so thankful that you’re willing to do this kind of stuff for us. I appreciate what you do for us. Great job, Scott.” 

Ya' know, now that we read those comments again they don't seem much like complaining.

Hmmm. Not sure what we were thinkin'. 

UPDATE: This work won a 2019 Platinum MarCom Creative Award.

The Caller Experience Marketing agency BusinessVoice has a very happy client in Steve Eaton. He's the CEO of Med-Line, a pharmaceutical delivery service based in Pompano Beach, Florida. Scott writes Med-Line's Humor On Hold content, and he and Amy serve as the voices. Listen to a sample in the video below. 

Here are a few of Steve's thoughts from a recent email interview. 

BusinessVoice: Is there something that attracted you to BusinessVoice as an agency or, specifically, our style of humor?

Steve: I chose BusinessVoice after listening to the many sample recordings on YouTube. I was very impressed by not only the scripts, but how well they were presented by your voice talents. I think there is really only one clear option for anyone looking for On Hold Marketing, whether it be humor or otherwise, and that is BusinessVoice.

BusinessVoice: Have you received any feedback on the OHM from callers or staff members?

Steve: My customers love it. Most have stated they would like to hear more. The On Hold Marketing scripts [Scott] creates are not only funny, but also informative. They provide valuable information about specific aspects of my operation that some may not be aware of. In the 15+ years I’ve been in business, this is by far the best marketing [money] I have spent.

Sharks are funny. Not in a "ha-ha" way; more like a "SWEET GOD! IT'S EATING MY LEG!" fashion. We can all identify with that, can't we? 

Anyway, hope you like this Humor On Hold Scott wrote through BusinessVoice. It features Amy and Scott on the VO.

Frankly, this Humor On Hold that Scott wrote for International Translating Company is inexcusable. Listen for yourself - that is, if you can get through it without your knees buckling, or your ears shutting down in protest, or your innards jumping through your gullet. Good luck.

Amy delivers an upbeat voiceover for this Toledo Zoo radio commercial. Her compensation: three buckets of zebra chow and a bed of straw.

While you're listening to the spot, see if you can hear the Mongoose Lemur in the background. His name is Roger and he wouldn't stop prattling on about his overdue tax refund.

In this voiceover for an on-boarding video, Scott welcomes the new employees of St. Louis-based Goley Insulation.

Notice that he doesn't yell at any point or threaten the new team members with physical abuse. He saves those tactics for the next video in the series, "You're in Trouble Now: The Goley Approach to Employee Discipline."

Nothing beats winning a pair of international awards, with the exception of a nice bowl of potato salad and two international awards stuck in it as garnishes. 

The Humor On Hold that Scott wrote and voiced through BusinessVoice for International Translating Company (top video) earned a 2019 Gold Communicator Award. His work for Lakeland Auto & Marine (bottom video) scored a Silver Communicator. 

While you're listening, try to imagine the taste of that 'tater salad. It's good, isn't it?

Most people would rather be shot out of a cannon than placed on hold. That's why Scott and the BusinessVoice team employ Humor On Hold. It provides all the thrills of being fired from large-caliber artillery without the bothersome concussion and powder burns. This production was created for the swell folks at Binkelman.
