We'll tackle this step by step, focusing on the key sections:

2. Lead Management (12%)
3. Lead Management (10%)
4. Reporting (4%)
5. Best Practices (16%)

First Module: Administration and Maintenance (12% of your total test score)

This section will test your ability to:

• Determine mapping process between Marketo and CRM
• Identify what happened to an asset using the Audit Trail
• Recognize differences between users and roles
• Given a scenario, identify the best fit for using workspace and partitions
• Identify CRM platforms with native Marketo synchronization
• Given a scenario, locate where information is referenced

Workspaces & Partitions under Administration & Maintenance

It's super helpful to have admin access to a Marketo instance for this section. If anyone in the group doesn't have this access, let me know and I'll try to find a solution for you.

Here's a quick way to remember the differences:

Workspaces: Separate marketing regions/brands assets.

Use them to organize marketing activities by region or brand. You can share or clone assets between them.

Lead Partitions: Separate contact lists.

• Use them to ensure leads from different regions or brands don't mix.
• Understanding the relationship between the two is crucial. Workspaces are given access to partitions—one workspace can have access to a single partition or many. Partitions can be assigned to multiple workspaces.
• Key Documentation for Workspaces and Person Partitions
• Understanding Workspaces and Person Partitions
• Creating a New Workspace
• Creating a New Partition
• Workspaces User Access

To get things rolling, here's a sample test question. Remember, both speed and accuracy count for a chance to win swag or even a free exam voucher!

Sample Questions:

What is one of the key functions of the Audit Trail in Marketo?

1. It provides a complete history of landing page views.
2. It captures real-time actions and events, offering a six-month history of data for assets, user activity, and login history.
3. It audits changes made within Web Personalization, Predictive Content, and Sales Insight.
4. It allows customization of user roles and permissions.

User roles allow you to customize:

1. The views and permission levels available for Marketo users
2. How campaigns are executed
3. The appearance of landing pages
4. The duration of Marketo marketing suspensions

A marketer is evaluating CRM systems to connect with their Marketo instance. To what CRM systems does Marketo currently offer a native bi-directional sync that does not require the implementation of a third-party tool?

1. Marketing Cloud and ZoHo
2. Only Salesforce
3. Salesforce and Zeta Cloud
4. Salesforce and MS Dynamics

Let's get started and good luck!

Fantastic work, Jeannie! I've highlighted the correct answers for you in bold. The concept of tokens can be a bit challenging, but you're making great progress. To help you understand it even better, I've found an excellent resource that dives deep into the world of tokens. Check it out for a more thorough exploration!

[Jjean516 · Accepted solution]

I don't have much experience in Lead Management so I will be taking some additional time to review this section. How much of the lead scoring strategy is on Marketing Operations? We have a growth marketing team I would assume most of the strategy would be on them?

Here are my answers below:

1. a. Defining the stages of the lifecycle
2. b.Aligning scores with the sales team’s feedback

3. d.A lead completing a purchase

4. b.Lead opened an email and clicked multiple links

5. c. Web Form

[Maria_Cruz1]

Way to go Jeannie! You answered them all correct. The lead scoring strategy is a critical responsibility of Marketing Operations. They define and set up scoring criteria, configure rules, and continuously monitor and adjust the scoring model to ensure its accuracy. Marketing Operations also facilitates alignment with the sales team, ensuring the criteria reflect sales priorities. Additionally, they document the strategy and train stakeholders, ensuring a clear understanding of the process and its interpretation. This comprehensive involvement ensures that lead scoring effectively supports the organization’s marketing and sales objectives.
