We are hiring! Electric Bricks is expanding and we are looking to add real professionals to our digital marketing teams. We are looking for qualified candidates who are interested in remote (US-based candidates only) contract/freelance positions but treat it like it’s their job (because it is!)! If you don’t want to attend any meetings, not be held to deadlines, and not have any accountability, then THIS IS NOT FOR YOU! Only serious applicants will be considered. We’re looking for contractors who are responsive (answer your phone and emails quickly) and responsible (do the best job you can every time and on time). We have a variety of positions available. Please review our Employment page for more details and to apply.

Reading Time: 3 minutes
Around March of 2020, Google began letting businesses that advertise on the Google Ads platform know that they will be required to complete an “identity verification” in order to continue using Google Ads. Typically, Google will send an email to the account holder alerting them that they must “start identity verification to continue serving ads”, or something to that effect. This is not optional. Let me repeat that – this is not optional! You will have 30 days from the date you receive that first email to begin the verification process. If you do not, Google will quite simply stop serving your ads, and your account will be paused.
