Q: Why can’t I play the radio or cds?
A: U.S. law requires you to pay for any music you play on
your phone system. ASCAP and BMI are watchdog groups that
collect royalties and rebroadcasting fees whenever
unlicensed music is used for business purposes. Fines can
range from $500 to $100,000 per musical piece! With fully
licensed music from Tampa Bay On Hold Plus playing softly
behind your custom message, you are protected!
With radio, your callers could end up hearing demeaning
shock jocks, political views they disagree with, jokes in
poor taste, or worse... an ad for your competitor!
Q:
what about canned music?
A: Some companies offer expensive "music-only" services
or "buyout music" that doesn't promote products and
services. Not only are you missing out on a valuable
marketing opportunity, you may be driving customers away!
