Using Google Ads is an excellent way to reach potential clients who are looking for your goods or services. A strong Google Ads campaign allows you to increase brand awareness and with the use of finely-tuned key phrases, to get the clicks that lead to solid business. An ongoing pay-per-click advertising campaign (PPC) takes expertise and time that may be beyond your reach. In that case, adding a manager to handle your Google Ads account is the way to go. Here’s how to do that:

  1. Log into your Google Ads account at ads.google.com.
  2. At the top of the page, click the TOOLS & SETTING button. A drop down menu will open. Click “Access and security.”
    (Multiple Selection)
  3. The Account access and security page will open. Click the blue plus (+) button on the top left-hand side of the page to add a new user.
  4. The “Invite others to access” page will open. Select the Admin access level to provide full access and oversight to fully manage and edit ad campaigns.
