A telephone network system routes audio and image announcements into a call originating from a local telephone station of a calling party. A subscriber may select desired audio and image announcements that are generated by a network announcement facility which is operatively connected to the telephone switch system. The network announcement assembly generate audio and image announcements into the calls that are switched into the network announcement facility. The routing manager located at a customer subscriber location is interfaced with the network control point for determining the routing logic of the call to the switch as a function of factors such as location of the calling party and the time of day. The routing manager also includes an interface with the network announcement assembly so that the subscriber can generate audio and image announcements and transfer the announcements to the network announcement facility via a separate data path. A subscriber may select the desired audio and image announcements to be switched into the call originated from the calling party based on different parameters, such as the location of the calling party, the time of day and other economic or demographic factors.
