I am asked very often to let the user try for a while. And of course they want to have it for free. However, there is nothing like free lunch out there.

I got the idea to "bother" these people, by playing an advertisement before they actually make the call and even after a certain time.
Has anybody done that before?


Ideas I got for that is:
1. put the caller into a conference call with the advertisment channel
2. let the caller listen to the first advertisement before inviting the other party to the conference
3. keep playing ads, till the called party is in the conference too.
4. immediately silent the ads, when called party pickes up
5. wait the desired time and start to play the next advertisement block.


Advanced feature:
1. give the caller the chance to pay for the call by key in a password(?), that means:
a. it kicks out the advertisement
or
b. forward the call (????) so that the call is now directly connected.


`?' means I am not sure if that is a good idea nor if that is possible


bye

Ronald
