A method and apparatus for establishing multimedia calls over an intelligent telecommunications network in which the calls are requested through an internetwork of client computers and server computers and the internetwork of client computers and server computers is further connected to the intelligent telecommunications network. The method involves: 1) a caller generating a request for a call utilizing the internetwork to initiate the request; 2) delivering multimedia and/or audiovisual presentations(s) to the caller via the internetwork and/or public switched telephone network (PSTN); and 3) completing a circuit switched telephone call between the caller and a destination user subsequent to the delivery of the presentations(s) wherein the call is placed from within the intelligent network itself. In this manner, one or more multimedia advertisements or other presentations are delivered to the originating caller before completion of the requested call.
