Abstract: A method may include, by a network resource optimization system, receiving from a network node a resource request, determining a plurality of network resources based on the resource request, and determining a subset of network resources from the plurality of network resources and a network resource from the subset based on a score of each network resource. The score of each network resource may be based on a rate of acceptance of communication requests received or a number of communication sessions established. The method may include, by the network resource optimization system, transmitting a communication request to the determined network resource and receiving an acceptance from the network resource. The method may include, by the network resource optimization system, causing a selection mechanism to be activated at the network node, receiving from the network node a selection, and initiating the communication session in response to the selection.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and system for facilitating communication sessions between a service provider and a consumer. More specifically, the embodiments described herein are directed to receiving, from a consumer, a request for a product or service. The request is analyzed to determine one or more service providers that perform or provide the requested product or service. When various service providers are identified, an algorithm ranks the service providers from high to low. The highest ranked service provider is provided with an opportunity to instantly begin a communication with the consumer. If the highest ranked service provider declines, the next highest service provider is given the opportunity.
