Abstract
Aspects provide methods to discretely and intelligently make a user aware of a service or product offered by a subscriber without distracting the user with a full advertisement. More specifically, aspects provide methods and systems for selectively outputting an audio chime in response to a trigger event, wherein the audio chime provides an indication of a service or product offered by the subscriber. In response to a user's acceptance of the audio chime, a second chime, further engaging the user, is output.
