Provide Example for Consistent Naming Convention

Provide Example for Consistent Naming Convention

Marketo has great recommendations on how to name everything in your Marketing Activities.  People are still getting it confused so I suggest that Marketo can implement a format example in italics underneath the name when the users create a new asset/program. It will look similar to creating a form and giving the lead an example of how to fill the date of birth or phone number. 

For example:

Webinar Name: (                                )
Ex. Type-YYYY-MM-DD-Description

I think a bit of guidance  here and there will save companies time and money on constantly retraining their staff and getting lost while searching for things in Marketo.

I like this idea and would like it to go further by allowing you to determine some sort of enforcement or field masking the Admin can choose. Perhaps 3-5 choices based on marketo and partner best practices.
