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.

Key Points: 
  • The channel, called Pop Smile, is designed to offer an enjoyable, positive listening experience for callers of any age and background.

  • 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."
