French term or phrase: jeu volubile

This is about the interior design of a business. My research has shown me that it's a musical term, but I'm afraid I know nothing about music and wouldn't know the right way to render this in English. Many thanks!

Un jeu volubile dans le but d'augmenter la rentabilite du commerce.

strategy that gets the message across

Explanation:
"volubile" meaning loud, chatty, that can be heard - for marketing and business purposes, "get the message across" seems to me to be a close equivalent in EN.
