If you are connecting your Google Business Profile to your Google Ads account, you must add your Google Ads Extension phone number in Google Business Profile. Google will automatically use your Google Business Profile main number which can impact reporting.

Best practice is to create a Google Business Profile call tracking number, as well as a Google Ads Extension call tracking number so you can report Organic vs Paid separately.

  1. Go to business.google.com/, sign in and select your Google Business Profile.
  2. In the Menu (3 vertical dots), choose Business Profile settings.
