      Hello,

      I am currently managing 200 clients for which I have to create Google Places.

      Can I create 200 different places for each client, and manage all them from one Gmail account?

      If one client doesn't want to continue the contract, can I transfer the managing of the place to another account?

        I know things are changing as G+ Business pages roll out but the functionality you ask about has always been possible.The google places for business dashboard lets you add and verify all of your clients local profiles (but your authority to make changes to them has to be verified via phone call or post card verification to each client's business phone number or physical address).

        At such a time that someone else would need to manage a client's places profile, the other party would simply add that client to their dashboard and verify they have authority to make changes by submitting for phone or postcard verification, receiving the pin that would provided in such verification communication, and inserting pin into their dashboard for that client.

          Right now the ability to transfer management of Google listings from one gmail account to another is not available. You would release the listing from your account and the new manager would have to find it on Maps and claim it in their gmail account.

            Hi Cvissi,

            I strongly recommend that you do not attempt to claim any client's listings into your own account and that you do not claim multiple, unrelated businesses into a single account. Each client should be in control of his listing, even if you are the Local SEO on the project. My advice is to claim each listing individually, preferably into the client's domain name email. This will prevent major future headaches for you and your clients.

              Hey Miriam,

              Thanks for your help. So I wanted to know can I open G+ Profile with clients domain name emails, and then with G+ to claim Google Local+ listing, because to open Google Local+ Page for client you first need to have G+ Profile account which I know thay cannot be open with any other domain name mails expect Gmail.
