If our engagement includes paid search campaigns — typically as part of a Fractional CMO retainer — or if we are integrating your website's conversion tracking with your existing ad spend, we need access to your Google Ads account. This allows us to ensure your ad dollars are directly resulting in measurable business growth.
Quick summary
Log in to Google Ads and go to Access and security within the Admin menu. Select the + button, enter support@chykalophia.com, choose the Standard or Admin access level, and select Send invitation.
Step-by-step instructions
Google Ads uses a secure delegate access model, so you never need to share your personal Google password.
Log in to Google Ads. Go to ads.google.com and sign in.
Navigate to Access and security. Go to Access and security within the Admin menu.
Add a new user. Select the + button.
Enter our email. Type support@chykalophia.com into the email address field.
Select the access level. Choose either Standard or Admin. Standard is usually enough: it can edit campaigns and create conversions from your Google Analytics events. Admin is the only level that can link your Google Ads account to Google Analytics, add or remove other product links, or change access levels and cancel other people's invitations.
Send the invitation. Click Send invitation. We will receive an email to accept the request and securely access your account.
Common questions
Will you change my billing information?
No. Be aware of what the levels allow, though: Google Ads lets both Standard and Admin users view and edit billing information. Adding or editing the forms of payment on your payments profile is limited to the Admin and Billing levels. Whatever level you give us, we do not add, remove, or modify your payment methods without explicit, documented approval. If you would rather we couldn't, give us Read only access and we'll tell you what we find instead.
What if my Google Ads account is managed by another agency?
If an existing agency holds your Ads account under their manager account, and that manager account has ownership of it, admins there can also change who has access to your account. You may need to ask them to grant our email address Standard access so we can audit the conversion tracking integrations on the website.
How do I remove your access when the campaign ends?
Go back to Access and security within the Admin menu, find our email address, and select Remove access in the "Actions" column.
