Background Music for Stores

Evolved Radio has been engineered to be your own retail store music playlist. It can up-sell and promote specific products and services, or simply act as a specialty in store music only system to create that perfect ambience or mood.

Evolved Sound’s background music solutions are individually tailored to provide measurable outcomes. By combining the latest technology and full management by our broadcast media professionals, Evolved Radio will always sound outstanding, operate reliably and maximise communications opportunities.

We can cater to clients requiring either commercial released vocal music (similar to your favourite radio station), or license free in store music which doesn’t require any additional licensing. With ever changing laws and costs to pay, independent music is becoming increasingly popular for cafe background music solutions, restaurant background music, shopping centre background music and various other settings where music licensing costs are considered too expensive. Typically, our commercial playlists feature a massive selection of carefully handpicked vocal background music. The song choices are constantly revised, and new tracks are added all the time – similar to mainstream radio stations. With large playlists, our systems offer much less music repetition compared to public radio stations. This results in a refreshing and ever changing in store broadcast experience for both shoppers and staff.

As no two businesses and environments are identical, our pricing is calculated directly from the type of music content, advertisement update frequency (if applicable) and number of locations required. Speak with us today about your ideal retail store music playlist and business goals.

Research shows that playing the right kind of background music playlist has a direct impact on your customers and staff. For example, playing misguided genres, or even worse your competitor’s advertisements via the local radio station can have a negative impact, and even drive customers away! Also, playing Christmas jingles too early or too frequently in the festive season has proven to be a real turn off!

If your customers can relate and connect with the music, it’s guaranteed to be an investment that pays for itself. Combine that with the ability to run your own in store advertisements and you have a very powerful marketing platform that you can control.

Absolutely! We have a vast selection of background music for retailers. You can personally choose your music or you can leave it up to our music programming experts who can recommend and craft the ideal mix  for your business. Most of our clients recognise this isn’t their strength and consequently trust our music selection expertise. This means they can escape the time consuming and subjective process of music selection.

Our background music solutions are as simple to connect as a radio. Just plug into:

• Your existing sound, PA or speaker system  for instant playback. If you don’t have speakers, we can recommend the ideal speaker and amplifier arrangement. To keep your costs to a minimum and ensure it is most appropriately installed, this is best purchased directly by the client and installed using your existing electrician, IT or technical installation people.
• Your existing internet connection. Each site should have permanent broadband internet connectivity to run our in store music systems. The system also connects into a standard network router port to allow for content updates and remote administration.

If you’ll be utilising customised in-store advertising announcements, as standard we would initially record 6 to 10 advertisements averaging 15 to 30 seconds in length each. Our systems can include a lot more advertisements in the schedule, however this forms a good starting point. Typically, these rotate through one per time after every 10, 15 or 20 minutes for example. In addition, we will provide a Yearly Update Allowance based on how often you require new In Store Advertisements to be recorded and loaded. To ensure you don’t pay more than you need to, it’s important to know how many times per year you would like to record new In Store Messages, and how many new separate messages are required each time you update.

As little or as often as you want. We have music for shop packages that start with only a couple updates per year, and can extend to monthly or more. This can be tailored to your exact requirements and adjusted at any time.

Not at all! We have turnkey in store music packages that include a choice of ready to go retail music playlists. If you’ll be utilising customised in store announcements, we offer a fast message scripting and recording process. Our systems are designed to be plug & play, requiring minimal cost and effort to be operational. You can rely on Evolved Sound to create that winning continuous sound for maximum customer benefit, so you can focus more on your business!

As part of our ongoing supply, if your background music system fails it will be replaced at no charge. All our background music solutions include ongoing support and equipment replacement warranty. We also pro-actively monitor all sites to try minimise the impact of most possible technical issues.
