Hi All,
Good one from a practice exam. What do you think?
The answer should be the second one: The programs do not have a period cost associated to them.
My reasoning (found from documentation):
If a period cost has not been defined for any months, reporting in RCE will not be available for the program.

I agree with your answer.
@John_Bogdanski3 - Please let us know if we are thinking in the right direction.
Hi @John_Bogdanski3 ,
With things wrapping up, would you give some tips on the exam as far as what areas to really focus on while studying?
Thanks!
Hi All,
Apologies for the delayed response. I am digging out after July 4 vacation.
Here are some tips for the exam:
I hope this helps. I will check back here for any questions. Good luck!

The exam challenges your knowledge of which columns are available in a report, so...
Q: Which column is NOT part of a Program Performance Report?
Related recommendation. The exam challenges visual knowledge across the board, so I recommend taking screenshots of all major out-of-the-box reports. Also, be familiar with the asset screens: images, pages, emails, etc. They ask things like, "What can you not see on the image details? image size, type, dimensions, etc.

Hey @John_Bogdanski3
I believe Period Cost in not a column in a Program Performance Report. These are the available columns:
That is correct. It is good to note that Period Cost is one of the items you can drag over in the setup area.
Hi @John_Bogdanski3 - All the mentioned columns are part of Program performance report.
Hi All,
A warmup to start the week on Section 4 - Reporting.
Q: To measure your Marketo database growth over time, you would use a:

You can measure data base growth overtime with a People Performance Report
That is correct. Well done.
From a practice exam. Not worded great, but this question does a very good job of checking your knowledge of how segmentation works in Marketo. To clarify, the categories are in priority order like a real segmentation. If somebody likes something, assume they are on the smart list.
Good time to mention, the exam is typically loaded with trap questions and answers. There is usually an easy choice to exclude, then the remaining choices are close. They are testing how well you can focus and pay attention to detail. Take your time 🙂

I believe the second answer is correct:
My reasoning behind this answer is because a person can only qualify for one segment at a time and if they qualify for two segments, they will belong only to the first one on the list (depending on the order of priority established).
Miri- Apple pie segmentation and sticky toffee smart list
Jacinda- tiramisu segmentation and apple pie smart list
Indira- sticky toffee segmentation
Christina- Tiramisu segmentation
Chiara- Donuts segmentation and tiramisu, apple pie, and sticky toffee smart list
Based off this alone it makes the first and third answer incorrect.
Tricky one from a practice test. This tests your knowledge of trigger tokens and interesting moments.
Hint: What do you want the sales rep to see? Read out the whole line as a sentence below, and see what makes sense. They are making sure you do not have duplicative info, and they are testing that you know which tokens are supported with the 'fills out form' activity.
Helpful docs:
Please select one.
That question is a tricky and confusing one! But I do believe the answer is:
Filled Out Form: {{trigger. Trigger Name}} on {{trigger. Web Page}}
I think it's this answer because from the content it says:
Like I said, this was a tricky one for me so I would love more input and guidance on this one. Thank you 😀
So, the answer is:
Filled Out Form: {{trigger.Name}} on {{trigger.Web Page}}
I think the best way to explain this is that you want to have a line (the interesting moment) saying to the sales rep, "Filled Out Form: Sales Contact Form on Super Awesome Sales Page"
If you were to use {{trigger.Trigger Name}}, your description would say, "Filled Out Form: Filled Out Form on Super Awesome Sales Page"
This may be a good one to test in your sandbox or demo area to get comfortable with. Very tricky one!
Sample right from my instance:
@Rishabh02T , @Michelle_Dadso2 , @shilpapradhan , @n8-booth,
I actually have a follow up question for this one. When using Filled Out Form: {{trigger.Name}} on {{trigger.Web Page}} which would read to Sales as Filled Out Form: Sales Contact Form on Super Awesome Sales Page (from your example), would you need to create these tokens inside the program/campaign or are these inherited tokens? I am just curious how you would pull the correct names for the form/ web page with {{trigger.Name}} and {{trigger.Web Page}} token.
Good question.
You do not need to create these tokens at program or folder level. They work like system tokens or lead tokens where the tokens react to what happens at a given moment.
I do recommend that your Interesting Moments program is created at a high level shared across your instance or at least a whole workspace.
Hope this helps.
