    Lets say a company contacts me to do online marketing.

    I optimize their site and get them in google. Now they want to do something with adwords.

    Is it possible to resell adwords?

    You can run the campaigns for them.

    I have done that for a while.. infact for two different companies..
    You are the "webmaster"/"seo expert"/"their internet guy" right ?

    You can do anything on internet on their behalf as long as you are authorized by them. That includes adwords, they actually dont have to ask for it. You are promoting right ? All depends on payments.. :D
    Thats how I see it.

    Doesn't seem too complicated. Just work out something with them where they pay you and let you run everything for them (sounds like you already are running everything else for them). Then just set up an adwords campaign, mark up what google charges a little bit so you make a profit, and bill them for it.

    I'd just set a monthly budget with the people you're working with - say, $500 per month (just an example price, nothing more). Then, set up an adwords campaign spending, say, $400 per month. Pocket the rest (not behind their backs of course, let them know a percent is going to you!!).

    That sounds like the right way to do it. Although you're not "reselling Adwords" you're selling your services to manage the campaign.

    Hello Johnburk,

    this is my first post on this forum, but that is a question that I have written an article about.

    Is it allowed to post the url here or is that against the TOS ?

    I'm in need of an adwords account but don't have a credit card for payment, and I can't see that prepayment is possible from my country of the Philippines.

    I can pay most easily by e-gold.
