ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
To Be Held May 20, 2004
This Proxy Statement is furnished to the holders of Common Stock (the
"Common Stock"), of Call Now, Inc. (the "Company") in connection with the solicitation
by the Board of Directors of the Company of the enclosed proxy for use at the Annual
Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May 20, 2004 (the "Annual Meeting"), or at any
adjournment thereof. The purposes of the Annual Meeting and the matters to be acted
upon are set forth is the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders. As of
the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board of Directors is not aware of any other matters

accordance with their best judgment.
Proxies for use at the Annual Meeting are being solicited by the Board of
Directors of the Company. Proxies will be mailed to stockholders on or about April 6,
2004 and will be solicited chiefly by mail. The Company will make arrangements with
brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to send proxies and
proxy material to the beneficial owners of Common Stock and will reimburse them for
their reasonable expenses in so doing. Should it appear desirable to do so in order to
ensure adequate representation of shares at the Annual Meeting, officers, agents and
employees of the Company may communicate with stockholders, banks, brokerage
houses and others by telephone, facsimile or in person to request that proxies be
furnished. All expenses incurred in connection with this solicitation will be borne by the
Company. The Company has no present plans to hire special employees or paid solicitors
to assist in obtaining proxies, but reserves the option of doing so if it should appear that a
quorum at the Annual Meeting otherwise might not be obtained.
Revocability and Voting of Proxy
A proxy for use at the Annual Meeting and a return envelope for the proxy are
enclosed. Any stockholder who gives a proxy may revoke it at any time before it is voted
by delivering to the Secretary of the Company a written notice of revocation or a duly

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Currently, there are four members of the Board of Directors. Directors are elected
at each annual stockholders' meeting to hold office until the next annual meeting or until
their successors are elected and have qualified. Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy
holders named in the enclosed proxy will vote the proxies received by them for the four
nominees named below.
Each nominee has indicated that he is willing and able to serve as director if
elected. If any nominee becomes unavailable for any reason before the election, the
enclosed proxy will be voted for the election of such substitute nominee or nominees, if
any, as shall be designated by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has no
reason to believe that any of the nominees will be unavailable to serve.
The names and certain information concerning the four nominees for election as
directors are set forth below.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE
ELECTION OF EACH OF THE NOMINEES NAMED BELOW.

shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote for them, a quorum

counted, except that the accompanying proxy will be voted for all nominees in the
absence of instructions to the contrary. Broker non-votes and proxies marked "withheld"
as to one or more nominees will result in the respective nominees receiving fewer votes.
However, the number of votes otherwise received by the nominee will not be reduced by
such action.

membership and should be directed to Thomas R. Johnson, President of Call Now, Inc. at

for election at any an annual meeting by attending the meeting and offering the
candidates into nomination at the time of the election of Directors at the meeting. For a
shareholder nominee to be included in the Company's Proxy Statement for such meeting
the shareholder must give timely notice to the Company's President within the time
period described below under "Shareholder Proposals."

determine whether they have the qualities and skills set forth above. Such evaluation
may be by personal interview, background investigation and other appropriate means.
