Free Directory Assistance!

As he's been traveling around on the Clark Smart Real Estate book tour, Clark keeps getting asked something that has nothing to with real estate, but has proven to be of real interest to everyone: free directory assistance. People pay ridiculous amounts, up to $2 per call, to get what *might* be the right number...maybe! The good news is there's a number, 1-800-FREE411, where you can call, listen to a short ad, and get the number you want for free. The phone companies hate this, because directory assistance. is such a revenue generator for them. Google has also started a free directory assistance, but for businesses only: 1-800-GOOG-411. As of now its still in beta testing, so you don't even have to listen to an ad. So why pay for something you can get for free so easily?
