In my experience no. 
Two numbers for one business just doesn't work.When I've tried to implement this I've had trouble:
A) Getting all the NAPs to match and its not easy to get that done with just one number.
B) Convincing the client to put anything but their business number on their website.
I have a client that has a site that has had a number of people in charge of it. All of these people have very different opinions about what should be on the site itself.
When I look at their website on the server I see pages that do not have any obvious navigation to them.
What is the best way to find out the internal linking structure of a site and see if these pages truly are stranded?
No I wouldn't use article directories.
I think you should watch this whiteboard Friday:

O Man I enjoyed this rant! I have encountered this problem many times and it really sucks. If a client is particularly curious I offer my services to three way call the rascals!! They never have much to add and have left me waiting for many "Experts", "Google Insiders", and the like 
Yup totally agree. The only thing I would add is that if your page is deleted you do have 14 days to reclaim it before its actually gone for good.
Yes you definitely can. If I search for my brand name logged in I get a result that is tagged with the google blue guy.

When I have done google places optimization for businesses in malls I have used the general address. When I have done the verification process the clients haven't had any trouble getting their mail even if it is sent to the main mall office. I have just told them to keep an eye out for mail from Google and tell anyone who might get the mail by mistake.
Note: I live in a small town(50k) and our malls are not gigantic.
My favorites are Share Bar and Smart Youtube PRO. Otherwise we are pretty much on the same page.
Hi,
I'm not aware of individual video tutorials for tools but they do have an excellent webinar series
where they go over the tools and you can ask live questions.

I would say it is a waste of time because of its unsustainable nature.

1. Create content that will make your users to beg for more ( Create Content For Real Users )
2. Give away information Note: I'm not a huge fan of discounting because of the bad pattern it starts with the customer
3. Use Capture Pages/ Landing Pages to boost the perceived value of getting on your list
4. Constantly ask people to subscribe
5. Run a competition
6. Run a Promotion
Answering you question above I would say that running competition's/giving stuff away won't necessarily help your conversions in your list for that you need to optimize the copy in the email you send out.
I would definitely change the hosting before you launch the redesign.
That way you can get through any complications with a new host. When the
redesign is ready you can launch it quickly.

You definitely can use your home address. I work at home and have a Google places account for my business. As far as loopholes go I don't know of any. You have to do standard optimization for you account with citations and reviews.
I would use Twitter to get some ideas. I.E. when I used search.twitter.com
For: "Move Phone Data" I got a lot of great ideas for possible keywords to optimize for
See Picture http://imgur.com/XV6mq
Then when you have a few keywords you can use the advice from this article:
