How to locate a business

You've got a phone number of a business on a napkin or a piece of paper. Great, but now you really need to locate that company and maybe go there and talk to them. Or just want to verify or research that organization. How to get the information you need quickly?

Yes, you go online, type the phone number that you have, Google it and voila... you get for example few million results. Are they all related to the same phone number? - I doubt it, but at least the top ones are. Search engines are getting better all the time. Even though in my search I found two different companies using the same phone number. Well if you spend some more time clicking and comparing you will find the truth eventually.

Option two: You go online and do a reverse phone lookup using the phone number you have. A reliable website will return basic information including land type, city and location on the map for that particular phone number in accordance with its registration. No multiple results, no confusion, no extra clicking and for a small fee you will receive the full name and address instantly.

Option three: Do it the old fashioned way. Look up the name of the business in the phone book. Have your eyeglasses handy and browse through the pages. The problem would be that records are alphabetically ordered not by the phone number. Now this could take extra effort and unpredictable time.

Of course there might be more options. You may just call your friend or business partner you had lunch with and got that phone number. Or check a local business directory. Whatever you decide keep in mind that a reverse phone lookup is a fast, confidential and efficient modern way to get the information you need.

One last tip: Once you have the phone number and location of a business, be sure to call them and confirm the address. Double check if the information is correct and the company is still operating. Businesses have been shutting down or moving frequently in the past few years due to the economy turbulence, and you don't want to waste time driving to an empty storefront. Whether you are trying to find a florist near you, a new restaurant or plan a getaway to a nice bed and breakfast use online reverse phone lookup for faster results.
