Abstract: A system and method to deliver a voice advertisement to a cellular device over a cellular telecommunication network prior to connection of a voice call. The system, within a cellular telecommunications network, includes two units, a first unit that determines whether a call is subscribed to receive an advertisement and makes a request for delivery of the advertisement before connecting the call, and a second unit that delivers the advertisement to the cellular device. First, the first unit identifies if the call is subscribed for delivery of an advertisement. Second, the first unit routes a request to the second unit for delivery of the advertisement. Third, the second unit delivers the advertisement to the cellular device. Fourth, the first unit connects the call to the network.

Abstract: A system and method to append an advertisement to a Short Messaging Service (SMS) message. The system, which is implemented in a communication network with an SMS, includes two units, a first unit to identify a message recipient's subscription status to determine whether the recipient is subscribed to receive advertisement based SMS, and a second unit that appends an advertisement to the identified message before delivery to the message's recipient. First, the first unit identifies whether the intended recipient of an SMS message is subscribed to receive advertisement based SMS. Second, the first unit routes a request to the second unit to insert an advertisement into the identified SMS message. Third, the second unit appends an advertisement to the SMS message. Lastly, the second unit routes the modified message to the SMS in the network for delivery to the recipient's device.
