When you begin working with the agency to help with your local search efforts, the agency may ask you to add them to your Google My Business (GMB). Add an agency as the manager for your business listing is beneficial as it allows account managers to check out the current state of your listing, see if all the information has been added properly & also to come up with recommendations for improvement.
Owners of Google My Business listings can invite additional users to manage a listing. Adding the owners and managers let users share the management of listing without having to share personal account information. Owners, managers, & communications managers all have different levels of access to the listing.
Only an owner can add or remove the users. However, a manager may remove him/herself from a listing.
