A method and system are provided for presenting a customized message to an incoming calling party and for allowing the calling party to save or forward the customized message. A called party desiring to leave a customized message for certain incoming calling parties submits a customized message to an intelligent network component of her telecommunications service provider along with telephone directory numbers for specified incoming callers who are to receive the customized message upon calling the called party. After the customized message is prepared, incoming callers whose telephone directory numbers have been associated with the customized message are presented with the customized message before being connected to the called party. After an incoming caller receives the customized message, the calling party may listen to the message again, save a copy of the message according to a variety of methods, and the calling party may be connected to the called party. If the incoming call is not from a telephone directory number associated with the customized message, the incoming call is processed according to normal call processing methods.
