Re: Sample MCE Questions on Targeting and Personalisation

Thanks Monika Nimmagadda for the practice questions - they are very useful. Can you please clarify question #23? The correct answer in the text file is listed as C (10,000 recipients). But the Marketo documentation says 100K: Email CC - Marketo Docs - Product Documentation 

Re: Sample MCE Questions on Targeting and Personalisation

Hey James, 

Thank you for the heads-up. It was 10,000 in the initial days and the limit was increased to 100k in 2018. when I took the test, I do see only these options so, I've chosen 10,000 recipients as the best available answer. If there would be another option along with saying 100k, I've definitely chosen 100k.

Re: Sample MCE Questions on Targeting and Personalisation

Hi Monika Nimmagadda‌.. Thanks for these questions. For Q29, the answer you gave says, A, B, D. Can't tokens be used for the situation given in option B? Example: Using {{lead.Inferred Company}} token or something?

Re: Sample MCE Questions on Targeting and Personalisation

Hey Rohit,

You are right... To refer to the leads inferred company in the email "subject line" Tokens are the best use.. but then the question is about using dynamic content instead of token. So, we cannot use dynamic content in the email subject line..  

Let me know if you have another questions for me. Happy to answer them as well.

Re: Sample MCE Questions on Targeting and Personalisation

Yes. Then how will B be an answer. We cannot use Dynamic Content in the email subject line. Question is about where we can use it right? Or, am I missing something here? 😕

Re: Sample MCE Questions on Targeting and Personalisation

Thanks for correcting that Rohit... I missed it..let me correct that..

Anyways... These are the questions that were provided to us as a knowledge check and I have many more.. let me know if you want them so that I can share. I believe it's best to share the knowledge as I can correct myself.

Re: Sample MCE Questions on Targeting and Personalisation

Sure.. Thank you Monika Nimmagadda‌!

Re: Sample MCE Questions on Targeting and Personalisation

hi everyone I thought the answer to this question was 900, why is it 1,000? The 100 people that aren't in these countries are undefined so wouldn't they not be included? 

 

04. A marketer creates a new segmentation called Country-EMEA, aiming to segment a total of 1,000 leads by different target regions in this geography. After setting up and approving the segmentation, the results show 250 records in the UK region, 50 in France, 200 in Germany, 400 in Italy and 100 who didn't fall into any of the defined country segments. What will be the final size of the new segmentation?
A. 900
B. 1,000
C. 1,250

 

Can someone please explain? Much appreciated, thank you

Re: Sample MCE Questions on Targeting and Personalisation

  • When you create a segmentation in Marketo, there is always a default segment that cannot be moved, edited, or deleted. 
  • People will qualify for each segment in the order defined. 
  • The segments are mutually exclusive.
  • A person can be a member of only one Segment at a time.
  • When a person qualifies for two segments, they will belong only to the first one in the list.
    If a person does not qualify for any Segment, they will become a member of the Default Segment.

I hope this clarifies your question. I would recommend creating a test segmentation so you can see how it works in practice - sometimes it's hard to grasp these concepts until you get your hands on the tools.
