Multiple marketing companies accessing a GBP- thoughts?

[Kaycie Smith]

Curious if anyone has been in a situation where a client allows another marketing company to manage their GBP listing. It doesn't happen often but when it does it makes me uncomfortable with fears of them doing something to get the listing suspended.

Am I being overly protective or does anyone move these listings out of their main dashboard in these situations?

It happens a lot in the franchise space. I enjoyed booting them out.

On the other hand, the client can employ whoever the want to do what ever they want. Unless you have some exclusivity contract. If the other marketing company mess things up it's not your problem. Just means the client has to pay you mega bucks to fix things.

I had a client who got a cheap developer to make some changes to their site. This dev made a real hash of things (doing live edits) and broke the site to badly the database needed editing . Cost the client a considerable amount for me to fix everything. Clients do what clients do - invariably the wrong thing.
