In the following description of the present invention, a detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein will be omitted when it may obscure the subject matter of the present invention.

FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a preferred embodiment of building a calling number database using caller information of a caller on a landline telephone in the present invention.

The manager terminal creates a group account in advance in the service server 300 and registers the wired telephone 130 belonging to the group account. For example, a boss who operates a plurality of franchise cafes can use a manager terminal to create a group account representing his franchise, and register a plurality of wired phones installed in each franchise café in the service server.

The service server 300 issues a group code requested by the administrator terminal and a group code to be input by the group one smart terminal belonging to the group account.

The telephone number collection server 140 collects call information for a plurality of caller terminals 110 requesting an outgoing call from the communication server 120 to the registered wired telephone 130. In the preferred embodiment, the telephone number collection server 140 may collect origination information including a telephone number of a caller, an origination time, and a call duration using an OPEN API function provided by the communication server 120. The calling information includes the caller's telephone number. In addition, the calling information may further include information such as a calling time, a call success, a calling time, and a caller's calling area. The telephone number collection server 140 constructs a calling number database 145 using the collected calling information.

The service server 300 provides the calling number database 145 to the group one smart terminal to which the group code is input. The group one smart terminal sends a personal callback message or a group callback message to the caller terminal 110 originating from the wired telephone 130 using the collected calling number database 145.

In order to receive the origination number database 145, the group smart terminal must install the application provided by the service server 300 and enter the group code to participate in the group. The group one smartphone may register a personal callback message to be personally sent to the application and send a personal callback message to the caller terminal.

The administrator terminal can log in as a group account and register a group callback message. When the group callback message is registered, the service server 300 transmits the group callback message to the group one smartphone. When the group call smartphone receives the group callback message, the group callback message is sent instead of the personal callback message according to the conditions included in the group callback message.

Meanwhile, the service server 300 may provide a calling number database to the administrator terminal. The administrator terminal receiving the originating number database sends a personal callback message or a group callback message to the caller terminal that originated the call using the originating number database. A message sent by an administrator terminal can be sent to the web.

Thus, by using the present invention, it is possible to easily collect the calling information of the caller who called the landline telephone. The collected outgoing information is stored in the database and can be provided to the group one smart terminal. Therefore, the smart terminal can easily send an individual or group callback message using it.

2 is a diagram illustrating a preferred embodiment of a centrally controlled group callback message transmission system of the present invention.

2, the central control group callback message transmission system 100 includes an administrator terminal 200, a service server 300, a group source terminal 400, and a sender terminal 500.

The administrator terminal 200 registers a group for using the callback message service in the service server 300. In a preferred embodiment, the administrator terminal 200 may request a group account and a group code. The administrator terminal 200 executes settlement when a settlement is required for use of the service. The administrator terminal 200 includes computing devices such as PCs, smart phones, and tablets.

The service server 300 can operate a web page for the administrator terminal 200 to access and register the group. When the administrator terminal 200 establishes a group account, the service server 300 can issue a group code for participation of a group member who is managed by the group account. The service server 300 can provide an application installed in the group source terminal 400 and can transmit the group callback message set by the administrator terminal 200 through the group account to the group source terminal 400 through the application have.

The group source terminal 400 inputs its own account or group code and accesses the service server 300. In a preferred embodiment, the group origin terminal 400 may be a smart phone, but is not limited thereto. The group call terminal 400 transmits a callback message to the caller terminal 500. Callback messages can be sent in a variety of situations. For example, a callback message can be sent even when an unanswered telephone call is made or a call is successfully made. The callback message may include information such as a name of a user using the group source terminal 400 or a company to which the user belongs, a telephone number, an address, as well as advertisement information.

The caller terminal 500 can receive the callback message from the group caller terminal 400 through the text message function of the smartphone and does not have to install the application provided by the service server 300. [

FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a preferred embodiment of an application installed in a smartphone of a group circle in the present invention. The application provided by the service server is installed in the group source terminal and operates in the background. The application checks the call reception status (for example, reception, transmission, and absence) of the group source terminal and automatically transmits a callback message corresponding to each status to the caller terminal. The callback message may include SMS, LMS, and MMS messages.

In a preferred embodiment, the application includes an interface providing unit 410, a personal message storing unit 420, a message receiving unit 430, a group message storing unit 440, a control unit 450, a message transmitting unit 460, And a storage unit 470.

The interface providing unit 410 provides various interfaces to the display screen of the group source terminal. The interface providing unit 410 may provide a message creating interface to create a private message. For example, the message creation interface can provide an interface for selecting which messages to send among SMS, LMS, or MMS messages, an interface for displaying the maximum number of characters for SMS, and a multimedia file for MMS Interface. The interface providing unit 410 may provide a situation setting interface for setting a situation in which a personal message is used. For example, an interface may be provided to set what personal message to send in the absence, what to set as a personal message to send after a successful incoming or outgoing call.

The personal message storage unit 420 stores individual callback messages individually set by the group source terminal. The personal callback message may be set for each situation such as, for example, reception, outgoing, or absent, or may be set for each day of the week, time zone, or may be set according to who the other party is.

In a preferred embodiment, the message receiving unit 430 receives the group callback message transmitted by the service server. The received group callback message is stored in the group message storage unit 440. However, the present invention is not necessarily limited to this, and in another embodiment, the group callback message may be stored in the service server.

The control unit 450 checks the call reception status (for example, reception, transmission, and absence) of the group source terminal in the background, and executes a callback message origination event for sending a callback message corresponding to the set situation. If the group callback message event is received first, the control unit 450 transmits the group callback message event in preference to the personal callback message. The group callback message event may be sent only one time or a plurality of times depending on the setting of the administrator terminal. In addition, a group callback message event may be dispatched for a specific period of time. For example, you can send a specific message for a limited time during the summer holiday season.

The message transmitter 460 transmits a callback message to the caller terminal according to an instruction from the controller 450. [ In a preferred embodiment, the message transmission unit 460 may send a callback message using the SMS function of the group source terminal, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the message may be pushed using the Internet function of the group source terminal.

The statistical data storage unit 470 stores statistics of callback messages transmitted from the message transmission unit 460 and stores the statistics. For example, you can create statistical data on how many times group callback messages were sent to whom. The statistical data of the individual group origin terminal can be collected at the service server, and the manager terminal can confirm the connection by accessing the service server.

4 is a flowchart illustrating a preferred embodiment of a centralized group callback message transmission method of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 4, when the administrator terminal accesses the service server and inputs predetermined membership subscription information and pays the callback service, the service server issues a group account and a group code that can participate in the group account (S 1100) . The group source terminal (preferably a smart phone) installs the application provided by the service server and inputs the group code to participate in the group.

The group call terminal registers a personal callback message (S1200). The personal callback message may include, for example, a message to be sent when a reception is successful or a failure, a message to be sent when a call is successful or a failure, and a message to be transmitted when a missed call is received. In addition, the group caller terminal can set whether to automatically send a message without confirming a message, or whether a message is transmitted by displaying a pop-up window to confirm whether the message is sent or not.

The manager terminal logs in to the service server with the group account and registers a group callback message (S1300). The administrator terminal can set the contents of the group callback message, as well as the sending period, the number of sending times, the sending destination, and the like. When the group callback message is registered, the service server transmits a group callback message to the group source terminal. The group source terminal receives it and stores it. The group call terminal can send the group callback message more quickly if the group call terminal stores the group callback message in advance in its own storage device.

When a callback message dispatch event occurs, the group call terminal checks whether there is a group callback message and the dispatch condition (S1400).

If there is no received group callback message, a personal callback message corresponding to the situation is sent (S1500). If the group callback message is received and the sending condition is satisfied, the group callback message is preferentially sent without sending the personal callback message (S1600).

In addition, the application installed in the group source terminal can collect the group callback message origination statistics. The service server can receive the group callback message origination statistics from the plurality of group source terminals and create the overall statistical data.

5 is a diagram illustrating a preferred embodiment of transmitting a callback message according to the present invention.

The automobile sales team member 1 installs an application provided by the service server in his / her smart phone 400 (a) and sends a personal callback message (B) to his / her customer 500 (a) 2 is sending a personal callback message C to his / her customer 500 (b) using his / her smartphone 400 (b).

Then, the manager of the sales manager registers the group callback message (A) using the manager terminal 200 and sets the sending period of the group callback message from July 15 to August 15.

Group callback messages will be stored on smartphones (400 (a), 400 (b)) of the automobile sales team members 1 and 2 of the group. By July 15, the smartphone (400 (a) , 400 (b) send a group callback message A to the terminals of the customer 500 (a), 500 (b) instead of the individual callback messages B and C, respectively.

After August 15th, the smartphone (400 (a), 400 (b)) of automobile sales team members 1 and 2 again sends personal callback messages B and C.

For reference, in one embodiment of the present invention, the centralized group callback message transmission method may be implemented in the form of a program command that can be executed through various computer means and recorded in a computer readable medium. The computer-readable medium may include program instructions, data files, data structures, and the like, alone or in combination. The program instructions recorded on the medium may be those specially designed and constructed for the present invention or may be available to those skilled in the art of computer software. Examples of computer-readable media include magnetic media such as hard disks, floppy disks and magnetic tape, optical recording media such as CD-ROMs, DVDs, magneto-optical media such as floptical disks, A hard disk drive, a flash memory, and the like. Examples of program instructions include high-level language code that can be executed by a computer using an interpreter, as well as machine accords such as those produced by a compiler. The hardware devices described above may be configured to operate as one or more software modules to perform the operations of the present invention, and vice versa.

[Other Modifications]

(1) The service server can insert a URL into the group callback message. The URL of the callback message means that the receiver automatically moves to the content or website indicated by the URL when a specific area of the message is clicked.

The service server can check the click-through rate of the URL and create the visit statistics. The statistics thus created can be used, for example, to verify or bill the advertising effect of a callback message.

 (2) The application can provide a variety of additional functions. For example, a list of customers who have refused to receive callback messages may be stored and no callback messages may be sent to the customer. This can prevent customers distrust of misleading callback messages into spam. In addition, it is possible to limit the number of callback messages sent out from the group call terminal of one day or one month. As a result, when a callback message is transmitted through a text message of a mobile communication company, it is possible to prevent an excessive charge from being charged.

The scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the description and the expression of the embodiments explicitly described in the foregoing. It is again to be understood that the present invention is not limited by the modifications or substitutions that are obvious to those skilled in the art.
