A recent experience in an upscale restaurant prompted me to write this. A continuous feedback loop where guests talk louder to overcome background sound or music in a restaurant, is a real problem many restaurants face.

Understanding Noise Escalation in Dining Environments Restaurants often struggle with rising noise levels, “noise buildup” as they become busy. When background noise increases — especially as music becomes louder or competes directly with speech — guests automatically speak louder to maintai...

With your on hold messaging, aim for 10-20 seconds in each message, and make sure that each message has a single focus. Brevity ensures greater comprehension of your messaging content, especially when it comes to senior callers. Additionally, if your average hold times are relatively short, it’s even more important to ensure that your content is concise.

Since messages should be short, it’s a good idea to utilize longer messaging cycles so that callers don’t hear the same messages over and over during longer hold periods. We recommend a 2-3-minute music and messaging loop.

Choosing the right music for your business will depend on several factors, including the type of business you have, your target audience, and the atmosphere you wish to create.

For example, if you run a high-end restaurant, you may want to choose more sophisticated and refined music to match the upscale atmosphere, while a high street fashion retailer might opt for more upbeat and popular tunes.

Our music experts are on hand to help you select the perfect playlist for your space, working with you to identify the right genres, artists, and songs to match your brand and customer base.

With the right music selection, you can ensure that your brand stands out and create an inviting and memorable atmosphere for your customers.

Check out how Nissan is using custom playlists for their showrooms as well as professional digital signage hardware.

DIGITAL UNITS & SCREENS
The Welcome Unit was redesigned to give it a slim-line form, thereby minimizing its impact on sight lines. It presents the Nissan feature car immediately at the front entrance, acting as a focal point and a bold statement of intent.

50” and 65” screen arrays in the heart of the showroom attract the customer’s attention with content displayed that celebrates the Nissan brand. The screens help animate the showroom and act as a beacon to drive customer circulation throughout the showroom.

High tables with a 43” POS Screen provide another eye-catching attraction for consumers and remove the reliance on paper POS communication and support for launches.

In the customer lounge, a 50” screen at the “Refuel Unit” displays engaging content to encourage customer interaction with the latest Nissan innovations, helping customers pass the time while they wait in the lounge.

SHOWROOM MUSIC
The main focus for Nissan in their showroom music was modernity, technology, allure, comfort, pleasure and performance. Nissan’s custom playlists position the brand as the trendsetter it is, providing a non-intrusive soundtrack that embodies the customer journey from start to finish.
