Using same business number on different websites
If the call is ringing 10-12 times before the call forwarding provider connects with your phone, I would drop that provider. A good company will have a seamless transition so no one would ever know the difference when they call you. Who are you currently running tracking numbers through? Sounds like either you've set up too many redirects in the call system or the provider has some serious support issues.

How to rank same business page in different locations?
To add to what Miriam has said, there is no quick or easy answer to "how to rank organically". My best suggestion is to start with the Moz Beginner's Guide Chapter 4 (Basics of Search Engine Friendly Design and Development) and go from there. Of course, if you do come up with questions as you go, feel free to post them in the Moz Q&A. There are lots of people who are willing to help. Be as specific as you can to get the best response.

Google Plus Business Page is not showing up
Hi Brian, This kind of thing can be really tough to diagnose in a forum. Your Google+ Local listing status should not, in my opinion, have any major effect on your organic rankings. I recommend that you look for other clues as to something else that might have changed, such as a shakeup in your industry's organic results, new issues reported in Google Search Console, a competitor who has recently done something big to jump ahead of you. You may need to hire a consultant and open up your analytics for them so that they can start narrowing down possible issues, but I would be surprised if the Google+ Local page turned out to be at the root of this change you've seen.

Amount of Internal Links?
The unofficial best practice is 100 as the upper limit but in the end I'd try to think of it more from the context of how the weight passes between pages and how you want the engines and users to prioritize your content. I actually wrote an article on this exact subject some time ago on Search Engine Watch where I show the math and how site structures to pass weight differently. That's probably a better answer that a flat number without reason so if you're interested you can see how the weight flows with diagrams at http://searchenginewatch.com/sew/how-to/2179376/internal-linking-promote-keyword-clusters. Hope that helps and let me know if you have any questions.

Best Plugins for Rich Snippets
Hi Brian, Breadcrumbs are one type of structured data, but I just mentioned as an example. Please, take a look at this article from Google help to see whether they are relevant for your site and how they are displayed in search results: https://developers.google.com/structured-data/breadcrumbs
