Corvette Warehouse Treats Callers To Little Red Corvette
When callers reach your business, what do they hear? For Corvette Warehouse, a dealership that lives and breathes high-performance vehicles, silence—or generic music—just wouldn’t do.
They came to Easy On Hold® looking for something special: music that captures the thrill of the open road, the legacy of an American classic, and the attitude of a brand that sells excitement on four wheels. But they didn’t want to break the bank. That’s where our Cover Tunes by EOH library came into play—and where the iconic Little Red Corvette helped transform their caller experience.
About Corvette Warehouse
Located in Dallas, Corvette Warehouse is one of the nation’s leading pre-owned Corvette dealerships. For more than 25 years, they’ve specialized in low-mileage, high-performance Corvettes, offering car enthusiasts across the country a unique buying experience backed by expert knowledge and a love for the iconic American sports car.
The Sound of the Road—Without the Licensing Roadblock
Corvette Warehouse wanted to build a phone experience as bold and memorable as their awesome cars. Their dream playlist included songs about driving, highways, cars, and freedom—anthemic tracks that make you want to roll down the window and hit the gas.
But here’s the speed bump: Licensing a single song recorded by the original artist can cost $15,000 to $50,000 per year—per track. That price tag isn’t realistic for most businesses.
Warner Music Group Licensing is a financial and legal department of the record labels owned by Warner Music Group (WMG). They explain that the record company owns the “masters” of artists’ recordings. There is another kind of licensing, which is “publishing.” That side of the music business handles the rights of composers rather than the audio recordings. More than money, licensing recordings can be a legal labyrinth.
Enter Cover Tunes by EOH: Big Sound, Small Price Tag
Our solution? Cover Tunes by EOH—a professionally produced library of cover songs performed by top-tier studio musicians and vocalists. These versions stay true to the soul of the original hits but come with:
- Affordable licensing (often under $1,000 per song)
- High production quality
- Fully legal usage rights for on-hold and streaming applications
These aren’t karaoke knockoffs—they’re carefully crafted reinterpretations that preserve the energy, style, and emotion of the originals.
Their Pick: Little Red Corvette
After exploring several options, Corvette Warehouse landed on a reimagined cover of “Little Red Corvette”—a perfect match for their brand and audience. The cover version delivers a sleek, polished sound that captures:
- The freedom of the open road
- The romance of the ride
- The elegance and edge of a Corvette
The result? An on-hold song that feels like part of the experience, connecting the caller to the brand as if they’ve stepped right into the showroom, not just into a waiting line.
What the President Had to Say
“Music on hold used to be an afterthought. Now it’s part of our brand experience,” says Douglas Ernest, president of Corvette Warehouse. “When callers hear ‘Little Red Corvette,’ it sets the tone for who we are. Easy On Hold made it easy—and made it great.”
