Google Accounts and My Client Center

Separate Google Account for Each Client?

[Oshburg]

Do I have to create a new Google account for each one of my clients? Or is there some way that I can update them all with one Google Account? I looked through the forum and I did not see a clear answer to this.

According to info I heard from Google, if your clients never log into AdWords; then you don't need to create an account for them.

If they log into an account directly, you need to create a Google login for them (I'd suggest using the exact same username and password as you currently are) and make sure you check the box that's like 'other's may access this account'.

If the clients never log in to check then I am fine, but if they do I should update to Google Accounts? Would I have to set up a Google Account for each one?

I have one client that logs in manually. He set up his own Google Account and invited me to be a manager. I previously had him linked to MCC. He is still linked their but the only difference is that I am not able to access Analytics. He has it set up but it does not show up when I enter through MCC.

Sorry for all the questions but this could be very tedious if I had to set up a Google Account for every client.

What have other people been doing that previously had all their clients linked to a MCC?

For Google analytics there's a different process. From within the analytics account (or tab from within the AdWords account) there's a permission setting.

Your advertiser needs to send you the email request from that setting for you to have access to that information. Make sure they send it to your Google account MCC email address for a smooth process.

With my Client Center account, I have separate billing information for each client. Also, each separate client should have separate Ad group, so you can track individual CTR, conversion, etc. Each client needs to have legitimate billing information with My Client Center.
