frequently asked questions

How many messages do I get?

We suggest you have messages that are fifteen to twenty seconds long, separated with music that is twenty five to thirty seconds long. Most customers have between ten and twelve different messages. You might want one or two of the messages repeated. We have some customers who want their messages ten seconds apart and we have some who want their messages two minutes apart. Some of our customers turn to their vendors and ask them to pay for portions of the service in return for featuring the vendor’s products on the messages.
