Google Business Profile Manager
Introduction
Google Business Profile Manager
If you’re the owner or manager of a business on Google, you can create a Google Business Profile to help customers find your company. Create a profile for free in minutes and allow your customers to find your location, get directions, call you directly from within Search results and more.
You can’t edit your business on Google if you don’t have a Google profile.

You need to add a business to your Google account in Business Manager or My Business.
How to add a business to your Google account
To add your business to your Google account, follow these steps:
- Sign in to the right account. Make sure you’re signed into the correct Google Account and not just a personal one! If you use multiple accounts for various purposes (for example, school or work), make sure that you’re using one that includes your business information.
- Check if there’s already a Business Profile for this location associated with this account; if so, select it from the dropdown list at the top-right of a page when viewing the “My Businesses” section of the dashboard on a desktop or mobile browser
- If there isn’t an existing profile yet created by someone else who manages said location–or if they’ve left behind no instructions–then click the “Create New” button next to the name field at the bottom left corner on desktop version only (not available yet via mobile app).
Check to see if your business is already listed.
To check if your business is already listed, search for it on Google. If you find it, then you are good to go.
If your business does not appear in the first few pages of results but does appear later on in the list after searching “business” and including its address or phone number in one of the fields that appears at the bottom of each result (e.g., city and state), then create a new profile through Google Business Profile Manager by clicking here: https://www.googleplaystoreappsdownloader4u/app-manager?title=Google+Business+Profile+Manager&id=com.googleincubatorfbpm
Create the account.
- Click on “Add”
- Enter your business name and address information, including the city, state and zip code. You can also add an image of your business logo if you have one.
- Select the type of business from the drop-down menu (e.g., Service or Product).
- Choose which category best describes your company (e.g., “Restaurant” if it’s a restaurant). This helps Google better understand what products or services they offer so they can display them in searches more accurately for customers looking for those specific items within their industry verticals.
Make sure you are signed into the right account.
Make sure you are signed into the right account. If you’re not sure which account is associated with your business, try logging out of Google and then signing back in again. This will allow for a change of primary accounts if needed.
If the problem persists after trying these steps:
- You may need to create a new Google My Business listing for this business (if one does not already exist) or remove any existing listings associated with another account that might be confusing.
Enter and verify your address details.
- Enter your address in the correct format.
- Verify that your address is correct by phone or postcard.
If you’re providing an additional address for your business, add it now by clicking Add another location below the map on the right side of your screen. You can also add a map to show where your business is located within a building (such as an office building)
When you create a Google Business Profile, we’ll let you know when it’s active, so you can start managing it directly from Business Manager.

You’ll be able to add photos and edit the name and address of the business. Additionally, if there are any locations with multiple branches or franchises (such as McDonald’s), each location will have its unique profile within your overarching brand profile.
The best part? Once all of this is set up through Business Manager, there are no additional fees for using other Google services like Google My Business or AdWords–the price is included in our subscription fee!
