Details about the steps, access needed, documents used, and emails for new Google Ads clients.
Access & Actions Needed from Client
The client must…
- Create a Google Ads account, set up billing details, and provide their account number so we can request access to manage their account via the Google Ads Partner program.
- Grant access to Google Analytics (UA and GA4). The instructions linked in the prior sentence are for UA. If the client doesn’t have UA and/or GA4, we can set that up for them, but we’ll need an email address tied to a Google Account to delegate ownership to them.
Other details are included below in the welcome email to the client.
