          G suite is a Google platform for business e-mail and team management that can be accessed in any device. Entrepreneurs usually use it to set a company’s emails for all the team members.

          If you have a company and you want it to succeed on the internet it is highly recommended that you sign up for a G suite account.

          We have noticed that some people struggle to create their corporate team e-mail because they don’t understand that G suite set up process is a part of a google account. So we found it useful to talk about it a little:

          HOW TO LOGIN FOR THE FIRST TIME

          IF YOU ARE AN ADMIN USER

          • After signing up you will receive an email from Gsuite with a temporary password
          • Log in with the new e-mail and the temporary password
          • Enter your new G suite Dashboard
          • Accept its terms of service
          • Choose a new password, enter it and you would be redirected to your new G suite inbox.

          IF YOU ARE NOT AN ADMIN USER

          • You should receive an e-mail at an account you already have so you can log in and set a new password for yourself
          • Or When your e-mail is already set in G-suit, to log in the first time you have to click in the option “set a new password” and complete the data that would e required

          HOW TO ADD A NEW USER (only for Admin users)

          • In the Admin console Home page, click on Users
          • Select the organizational unit to which you want to add the user
          • Click on “Add” and then on “Add new user”
          • The information you would need are the person’s first, last name and you might also want to have a secondary email address to send an email message with sign-in details for the new account
          • When creating the username you should consider that it will consist in the first part of the new user’s email (what comes before the @). Some people choose to use something generic like “contact”, so the future e-mail would be like [email protected]
          • You can give the new user full administrative access on the G Suite account through the Administrator option (G Suite accounts need at least one Administrator).
          • Since you are an Administrator user you can automatically generate a password for the new user, or to create one
          • There are optional data entries for the new user such as phone number and picture
          • If a secondary email address was added for the new user, he/she will receive a welcome email message that explains how to sign in for the first time
          • Google gives 30 GB of storage space for each user, including their email and attachments,  and adverts that It could take up to 24 hours for a new user account to appear in the searchable G Suite Directory.
