Option 1 The owner connects |
The owner of the published listing, connects it by going through the connect flow and clicking on "Connect" and following the instructions. |
Option 2 Get access to the listing and connect |
If you know the owner of the existing listing, ask them to add you as a manager. Follow this link for more information on how to add users to a Google Business Profile listing. After they grant you access, you can click on "Connect" and go through the flow. |
Option 3 The owner of the original listing is not known |
Request access by clicking on the 'Connect' button and then on 'here' in the bottom section of the pop-up. Another screen will open with a form you fill in. You may recognise this form from requesting access right directly on Google Business Profile. You can read more on this process here. |
