Track Email Replies Reply-to's in Marketo

Track Email Replies Reply-to's in Marketo

Primary Goal:
Marketers who send emails on behalf of Sales Reps need a way to track how many replies Sales Reps are getting from the program in order to measure ROI and automate other activities based on email replies.

Secondary Goal:
Marketers would also prefer to parse the text of the replied email to scrub for unsubscribes in order to manually review or automatically unsubscribe certain types of responses.

Optimal Solution:
A self-contained solution in Marketo that operates similar to the SFDC Email-to-Salesforce activity attachment process in order to both log activities, and log email replies.

Potential Work-around:
I'm thinking of a solution in Marketo Sales Insight for SFDC that can use SFDC email alias (which is out-of-the-box functionality) plus a bit of SFDC apex code in order to create an activity on the SFDC record.

Best,
Isaac

In my current role, we ended up hiring a consultant to build this functionality inside of Salesforce.

There are a small number of moving parts, and the implementation is specific to our organization, but if anyone at Marketo is interested in knowing how we implemented and what functionality I wish was available inside of Marketo, please let me know.

If anyone from the community is interested in working with the consultant, I would be happy to make an introduction, as they do excellent work.

Best,

Hey folks - sorry I didn't get back to you sooner - I actually changed companies since posting the idea and I no longer receive notifications (and I'm posting from a temp account right now).

I'll reach out via personal email address and let you know.

Best,
Isaac
