Can a communications manager add Google posts to GMB listings?

Can a communications manager publish Google posts to GMB listings or does it have to be a Manager?

 

[Phil Rozek]

@Jo Shaer, no, "Communications Managers" can't publish posts. Pretty much all they can do is respond to reviews. ("Managers" can publish posts, though.)

Kind of a misleading title, I say.

Thanks @Phil Rozek Was hoping to give limited access that would include Google Posts but back to the drawing board

*IF* your use case is one where you just want to publish new WordPress website posts or pages as Posts to your GMB listing, there is a pretty nice free WordPress plugin for that:

WP Google My Business Auto Publish
