How Offering Music Can Change Your Company

By | Music, Business, Hearing Assistance | No Comments

The workplace can often be a stressful, noisy, and congested environment. Issues like these lead to dissatisfaction among employees and/or customers, as well as decreased productivity, all of which affect your bottom line. One way to mitigate these challenges, and create a more effective and efficient workplace is providing music through a wireless audio streaming system. Research shows that music in the workplace leads to 3 key benefits:

Better Focus

Music can help people focus on individual tasks by blocking out surrounding chatter and noisy distractions. Music with a steady beat helps people develop a sense of rhythm when completing repetitive tasks, plus stimulation keeps the mind from stagnating during such assignments.

Improved Productivity

AudioFetch Blog 65 Music Productivity - AudioFetch Audio Over WiFiMusic can pushes people’s imagination during reflection and brainstorming, leading to dynamic ideas and innovative solutions. People find inspiration from music, so the right song could be just what a project needs to reach a new level.

Cohesive Sense of Community

Keeping an environment fresh to suit the needs of people using the space over a long period of time is important for workplace productivity and relations. Listening to music heavily impacts mood and therefore affects decision making and how people interact with other. A study by Cornell University researchers revealed that happy, upbeat songs made listeners working in teams more pleasant, cooperative, and open to sharing. Tunes with a positive spirit encouraged utilitarian choices and boosted team awareness.

What’s also great about music is that it gets people in sync with each other, allowing them to find points of connection with coworkers. Music offers people something to bond over, giving employers an opportunity to build happy teams that charge into the day over a shared anthem! In addition, by using a wireless streaming solution you can curate what your employees are listening to – anything from contemporary music, to educational podcasts, to internal company updates can all be streamed directly to your team anywhere in the building.

You can get more out of your employees by using music to create an efficient and fun work environment. To learn more about AudioFetch’s wireless streaming solutions, contact us!

3 Reasons Music Increases Productivity

By | Food for thought, Music | No Comments

In today’s workplace, an average employee is productive for only three hours, leaving many business owners searching for simple and inexpensive solutions to keep their teams focused. “Building friendly relationships creates a fertile ground for teamwork,” according to Lynn Taylor, a national workplace expert. “That atmosphere engenders more creativity, as people innovate most when they feel supported and the work culture is upbeat and fun.” Keeping your employees smiling isn’t easy, but retention is definitely a money saver.

The cost of finding a new entry-level employee is 30% to 50% of annual salary, for the middle-level it increases to 150%, and for high-level it’s 400%! One solution to retaining strong employees is to keep them happy, and one easy way to keep them happy is to provide them with music. Here are our top 3 reasons why offering your team an internal music option could be just what your business needs:

1) Music Makes People Happy
Dissatisfied employees can cost up to $75 billion yearly. So, it pays (companies) to be happy. Music therapy is more effective than other therapy methods in curing depression. Music also increases breathing rate, and increased breathing is a sign of happiness. It even affects babies as early as five months old. On the other hand, for those that value crying, sad music may help them have a cathartic experience.

2) Music Relieves Stress
Stress costs companies $200 to $300 billion yearly, and music can prevent this. Music can have a tremendously positive effect on reducing stress hormones. When working in a fast-paced or deadline-orientated work environment, music can be just what the team needs to stay focused and relaxed.

3) Music Increases Cooperation
A Cornell University study found that music has an effect on our willingness to cooperate. The study found that upbeat or “pleasant” music made people more willing to cooperate, while unpleasant music had the opposite effect. If your workplace thrives on teamwork (and let’s face it, whose doesn’t?), music can be an inexpensive and effective tool in fostering more unity and increased productivity. The Harvard Business Review found that happiness increased productivity by an average 31%, appreciated sales by 37%, and tripled creativity.

In order to keep everyone humming, so-to-speak, you have to be able to offer your staff multiple music options at once. A wireless audio streaming system can bring more smiles to your team’s work life, and make you the boss of the year!
