Saving on company 411 costs

Everyday it seems, we are seing more layoff announcements in the news. Starbucks laying off 6,700.  Boeing planning reduction of 4,500. In this time of economic uncertainly, all companies, big and small, are looking for ways to cut costs.

Given the above, I would certainly encourage CFOs and finance teams to examine their company telecom costs closely.  According to this

CFO magazine article, telecom costs (including 411 calls) are typically among a company’s leading 3 or 4 expenses.  At $1.50 each and even higher for wireless 411 calls, it is easy to see how these expenses can add up very quickly.

 

As an alternative, I would highly encourage your employees to use a free directory assistance service such as WhitePages.com.  It is both fast and easy to use.  Perhaps even put a link to the site on your intranet.

 

To cut down on wireless 411 fees, I would encourage all employees to bookmark a free mobile 411 service such as WhitePages Mobile into their mobile browsers.  If they still want to call, you can have them pre-program GOOG-411 into their phones.

If you take these measures, I think that you will be surprised at just how much money you can save.

 

Wouldn’t it be better to cut some 411 costs in order to save jobs.

How to Find the Owner of a Phone Number

If you’re getting prank calls or if you find a number on you caller ID that you don’t recognize, you probably want to find out who is behind that number.  The good news is that finding the owner of a phone number is easier than you might think with PeopleSearch.net

As long as you have the area code and the seven digit number, you should be able to locate any number’s owner, if you know where to look.

Searching For That Number

Your first stop should be a free reverse phone number directory.  Plenty of them are available on the Internet.  At the site, you’ll enter the entire number including the area code and hit “Search.” If the number is a published land line, you should get the information you want, including the name of the owner and the entire address of the owner.

If you’re lucky enough to get results, then your search can stop there.  In most cases, you’ll need to try a slightly different approach.

Usually, the reason you’ll run into problems is that the number belongs to a cell phone.  Because there is no central database of cell phone numbers, free reverse phone directories cannot return information on those numbers.  You also won’t be able to get information on landline numbers that are unlisted or non-published.

Don’t bother trying multiple reverse phone directories in order to find the owner of a phone number, either.  Most use the same databases, so if you don’t score results at one then you won’t fare any better at another site.

Find a Phone Number Owner – With PeopleSearch.net

Instead, you may have to use a paid site.  For a reasonable fee, you can access all of the information you need about the owner of a phone number using PeopleSearch.net. Our database gives you accurate, up-to-date information using both land line and cell phone searches. 

Our exclusive database includes broad coverage of the entire United States – with better results than you’ll find at most other sites.  We also give you free search assistance, access to expanded people search databases, and more.

In addition, if you don’t get results, you don’t pay.  It’s a no-brainer!

To use PeopleSearch.net’ reverse lookup service, you will pay a fee which gives you an unlimited number of searches inside the members’ area, plus a premium full phone report.  After you sign up, just enter the phone number you want to find, click “Search,” and you’ll have your information.  It’s that easy!

Saving money on cell phone bills

Did you know that many cell phone plans now offer free in-network mobile to mobile calling?  That is great but the issue is that it is often difficult to know what cell phone carrier that your friends and family are necessarily using. 

Luckily, we just ran across a great free service offered by WhitePages.com called Mobile Carrier Lookup that let's you find out what carrier is associated with a particular cell phone number.

 

I know in this tough economy all of us are looking to save a little dough.  Seems like a great way to save a little pretty easily.

Email Search and Reverse Email Search

Have you ever wanted to lookup someone's email address or lookup the name associated with an email address (sometimes called reverse email search)

If so, you will be happy to hear that we have recently added two new types of searches (email search and reverse email search) to PeopleSearch.net via our partner EmailSearch.com.  The link is located in the navigation bar at the top of the page.

You may have to pay a small fee but it is a good service.
