Today Google is launching Business Accounts, to make it easier to share management of your locations with multiple users, for upgraded Google My Business Locations users.

This will be an important update and great improvement for those that manage large chains and franchises where you want various managers, store owners to be able to update certain data.

Please head over to read the official Google announcement which has links to additional info you may need.

I'm still reading through all the related help docs and as you know I don't personally work with bulk listings, so don't have anything to add at this time, except that this looks like a wonderful update for those that do.

And in case you missed it there was another update for "Locations" on Friday.

Kudos once again to the team for continuing to make so many improvements to the local products, to make it easier for Local Search Pros to help their local customers!
