Companies Use AMI Music Jukeboxes to Boost In-Office Morale

Companies Use AMI Music Jukeboxes to Boost In-Office Morale 431 284 GAD Vending

Bringing music into the workplace is a groovy way to break up the usual routine. Music is an engaging strategy to bond with your team and get a fun new method to lighten up the office.

When you provide music as an included benefit for your employees, it will make your company stand out, and great things are also bound to happen for your workplace culture.

Music is something that your employees can interact with and listen to every single day. Digital jukeboxes also allow you to choose your songs and playlists, so coworkers can listen to what they want to hear instead of something they don’t enjoy.

From working as a stress reducer and improving focus and motivation to bringing people together in the office, here are a few ways that digital jukeboxes can improve office morale through the power of music.

1. Music motivates and inspires

Music can be a great way to get you pumped up and ready for the day. Many people pop in their earbuds or listen to music in the car before a busy day to prepare themselves for whatever comes their way while working, presenting, or running errands.

Iconic songs like “Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor and “I’m Still Standing” by Elton John are tunes that the busy bees may use to motivate themselves, while slower songs may be better for those wanting a chiller vibe for a calmer day ahead.

A 2016 survey conducted by Total Jobs stated that 79% of respondents said they’re more productive if they listen to music while they work.

Additional research has also shown that music that you love increases your dopamine levels, which plays a role in making your work more enjoyable. When you make music more accessible in the office, it’s easier to become motivated for the task at hand.

Knowing that the songs you love and enjoy can motivate you to get your work done makes us love them much more.

2. Music works as a stress reducer

Music is proven to help people cope with anxiety, stress, and other negative emotions.

While upbeat music can make you feel more optimistic, a slower tempo can quiet your mind and reduce stress.

Research states that music around 60 beats per minute can cause your brain to synchronize with the beat, causing alpha brainwaves, which are present when we are relaxed and conscious.

Listening to music can also be a great stress reducer by distracting and shifting your thoughts away from what might be giving you anxiety and something more enjoyable to focus on instead.

Your favorite music can be a great way to relax and manage stress. The next time you feel overwhelmed at work, try listening to some songs on a playlist that you enjoy and see if it helps.

3. Music can help employees focus at work

Let’s face it: sometimes, it can be hard to focus at work. The chatter and noise of others around you may throw you off, or your routine may bring you down and fatigue.

However, research states that music helps alleviate the fatigue caused by your repetitive routine. When you add music to your routine, it brings in a new, fun, and fresh aspect to your day.

To prevent your brain from getting tired and falling into a rut caused by your routine, try playing music that you enjoy from a digital jukebox. It might help you focus and achieve your goals while doing something you love.

4. Music brings people together

Music helps build communities. With plenty of genres out there with fanbases embedded in each one, there’s something for everyone to relate to.

Concerts are one of the best ways for music fans to connect, so why not bring that experience to the office?

Having a “mini-concert” of your own with the digital jukebox every day and then having certain days dedicated to specific playlists, artists, or genres can help strengthen bonds among the music fans at your business and expose people to new types of music they may not have known they liked before.

Think about it. When you discuss your favorite musical artist or band with someone and mention that they like them too, you’re more likely to think positively of them. Why not bring that positivity into the office?

Whether you’re using an app to control the music or physically getting up and gathering to choose your favorite songs to play on the digital jukebox screen, there are plenty of opportunities to engage with your coworkers and team over the music you enjoy.

Conclusion

Music is a powerful thing. Digital jukeboxes are a fantastic way to bring the power of music front and center into your office.

Whether you love the more nostalgic tunes from the 70s, 80s, and 90s or the latest music from chart-toppers like Taylor Swift and Harry Styles, the possibilities for music to be played on digital jukeboxes at work are endless.

Each jukebox has millions of songs with frequent updates, so you always have the top hits. With various options for offices, big and small, you’ll play music for your team in no time.
