[00:00 -> 00:08] All right, so this is how you hook up an existing clients account to your MCC.
[00:08 -> 00:10] Now there are two ways to do this.
[00:10 -> 00:12] One is you could have your client.
[00:12 -> 00:16] Now let's just pretend that this is the clients account.
[00:16 -> 00:20] You could have your client read you that 10 digit number.
[00:20 -> 00:21] Okay?
[00:21 -> 00:25] And then what you would do is you would go here and click on this plus sign.
[00:25 -> 00:29] You can click on link existing account.
[00:29 -> 00:35] And then you would paste that in there and you click on send request.
[00:35 -> 00:38] Now you will see that pending link request here.
[00:38 -> 00:43] Now what the client will have to do is they will have to go into their account, go to tools
[00:43 -> 00:54] and settings, go to access and security, go to managers, and they will see you will see
[00:54 -> 00:59] your manager account, the one that you set up right here, and they can accept or decline
[00:59 -> 01:00] it.
[01:00 -> 01:03] So they would hit accept.
[01:03 -> 01:06] Grant access.
[01:06 -> 01:16] Now you can go back to your account and if you refresh it, you will see that we just added
[01:16 -> 01:17] that account there.
[01:17 -> 01:20] One thing I forgot to tell you is this is actually the easiest way.
[01:20 -> 01:28] If you hit the plus link existing account, you paste that ID in here, that 10 digit ID
[01:28 -> 01:34] and hit send request, the client will get an email and all they literally have to do is
[01:34 -> 01:39] click accept invitation on that as well.
[01:39 -> 01:42] And you should be good to go.
[01:42 -> 01:45] Now what we're going to do is we're going to do that all over again, but we're going to
[01:45 -> 01:47] do it the other way.
[01:47 -> 01:51] The other way you can do it is from the clients account.
[01:51 -> 01:56] So if they want to add you to their account, they would, and you can just put this in an
[01:56 -> 02:02] email to them, they would have to go up to tools and settings, access and security.
[02:02 -> 02:05] They could click on the plus.
[02:05 -> 02:09] They could enter in your email address.
[02:09 -> 02:14] So it has to be that Gmail address that we set up just for your agency.
[02:14 -> 02:17] However one is up here in the corner.
[02:17 -> 02:19] They would enter that in there.
[02:19 -> 02:25] So once you have the email address for your agency account, you need to make sure that
[02:25 -> 02:29] the client adds this to their security.
[02:29 -> 02:34] If yours is micsagency.com, they need to add that to security.
[02:34 -> 02:37] So they go to security.
[02:37 -> 02:45] They would click on allowed domains, click add domain, and mancinidigital.com or mancini
[02:45 -> 02:50] agency or yours is probably going to be Gmail, which it would be fine.
[02:50 -> 02:55] But if it's not Gmail, you will run into an issue and they will need to add this.
[02:55 -> 02:57] Click on save.
[02:57 -> 03:05] Go back to users, click plus, paste the email address.
[03:05 -> 03:10] Then you're going to want to have them give you at least standard access.
[03:10 -> 03:16] If they give you admin access that will allow you to add users or switch managers or whatever,
[03:16 -> 03:21] some clients will not do that, but at a minimum you have to have standard.
[03:21 -> 03:24] And then click send invitation.
[03:24 -> 03:26] So you will receive an email like this.
[03:26 -> 03:30] You can click accept invitation and just follow the step.
[03:30 -> 03:33] It will just say, do you want to join under your account?
[03:33 -> 03:34] Okay.
[03:34 -> 03:37] That's all you need to do there.
[03:37 -> 03:43] But the easiest way is if you actually just go here and click the plus, click link existing
[03:43 -> 03:48] account, paste their ID in here and have them accept it.
[03:48 -> 03:51] They will get an email immediately after you do that.
[03:51 -> 03:53] That is the easier process.
[03:53 -> 03:54] All right.
[03:54 -> 03:55] See you in the next video.
