    • Primary owner can’t remove themselves from a Business Profile until they transfer primary ownership to another user

The Manager user role

  • Have most of the capabilities of an Owner, except for more sensitive functions
  • Can’t remove the Business Profile 
  • Can’t manage users

The Site Managers user role

  • Have most of the capabilities of a Manager
  • Can only edit some business information

    1. Sign in to the Google Business Profile
    2. Submit the request to a Manager or Owner of a verified Business Profile
      • Any owner can then approve or deny the request
