Google My Business is a must for any business. If you currently do not have an account read why this needs to be priority number one. When working with us, or anyone who is not you, it is crucial to know how to properly share your business with third parties.

  2. If you have more than one business, select the business you wish to share

  3. Click ‘Users’ on the left menu bar

  4. Click ‘Add Users’

  5. Enter the email address; if sharing with us, use hello@mediapulse.us

  6. Select a role for the user

  7. Click invite

The user will be sent an email to accept the invitation for the role you delegated to them. We typically ask for the manager role, never the owner role. Only an owner of the business can add more owners and managers.


Allowing a third party to manage your Google My Business account enables the third party to update your profile, critical for local SEO and your business’s visibility. 


What role should I assign to a new user? 

We rarely suggest assigning an owner role to anyone besides the business owner.

The manager role allows the same amount of responsibility; however, the capability to add and remove users and remove the business profile is not accessible.
