Hi @Harsh91 ! Great Job!

 

Question 1: Select which answers are true โญ CORRECT โญ

Email programs play well with other programs. You can use an Email Program to do the following:

  1. Use an email program to send out a webinar invitation.
  2. Use an email program inside a default program to keep things organized.
  3. Nest an email program inside an engagement program, since they can be used multiple times and run more than once.

๐ŸŽYou're right! Email Programs can only be used 1 time, and they cannot be nested inside Engagement programs!

See your Marketo Guide on Understanding Email Programs

 

Question 2: Select which answers are true โญ CORRECT  โญ

Understanding Head Start Time in an Email Program

  1. When you choose a date/time for an Email Program, it determines when the program will begin processing. If you want your emails to launch at the selected time, Head Start gives you that option by processing the program in advance.
  2. With Head Start selected, the program will begin processing approximately 6 hours prior to the scheduled time. Once processing starts, the program is locked.
  3. If you unapprove your email program with less than 12 hours before its scheduled run time, but then change your mind, youโ€™ll need to pick a new date/time thatโ€™s at least 12 hours ahead of when you approve it.

๐ŸŽNice job! And good catch! Head Start will begin approximately 12 hours prior to the scheduled time!

See Head Start for Email Programs in your Marketo Guide for more learning!

 

Question 3: Select which answers are true โญ  CORRECT โญ

Design Studio Assets

  1.   After youโ€™ve selected the replacement image/file in Design Studio with the same name and same file type (ex: .gif, .jpg) the new image/file will be saved but will not be live on all landing pages and emails once uploaded. You will need to manually reset them across all programs and asset types.
  2. In Design Studio,  the Images and Files search only utilizes โ€œbegins withโ€ functionality at this time.
  3. The image editor allows you to make quick, light edits to your images in Marketo Engage for Marketo Landing Pages. Email images are locked and are not considered editable.

๐ŸŽVery good! You don't have to manually update assets across the programs if the image name/type match! Learn more in your Marketo Guide for Replace and Upload an Image or File for more training tips! 

 

Question 4: Select which answers are true โญCORRECTโญ

SFDC Sync Leads - Salesforce Integration

  1.   The lead (person) and contact sync is bidirectional. If you make changes to a record in either Salesforce or Marketo, your updates will be reflected in both systems.
  2.   Marketo will not respect Salesforce validation rules. The sync will fail if the data format is wrong or missing required field information. Marketo will not log the result in the lead's Activity Log if this happens.
  3.  You can manually force a sync of a person in Marketo to a lead in Salesforce by using the Sync Person to SFDC flow action and it will sync in real-time.

๐ŸŽPerfect! Yes you are right! Marketo DOES respect Salesforce validation rules! And Marketo will log the results in the lead's activity log! See SFDC Sync: Lead Sync in your Marketo Guide for more tips and answers!

Hi @chantaymorgan @Harsh91  @elenaburroni  @ellie_pramenko Rajat Dua  @christensenb 

 

Right now Elena and Harsh are very active on our thread! 1 Quiz is behind us!

Leader for this week's Quiz > HARSH Perfect 4 out of 4 ๐Ÿ’ก

 

@chantaymorgan - Looking forward to seeing you on the contextual thread soon!

@ellie_pramenko - Feel free to share a bit about yourself with the group!

@christensenb - Jump in anytime to ask questions or share your Marketo journey!

 

2 Bonus question > 

  • Identify the special features of engagement program.
  • List the 4 program types that Marketo has.

 

Last: Study Tip! ๐Ÿ“–

 

Sleep and calmness work wonders for testing! Although your exam is multiple choice with a generous time limit to complete it, you still need to focus and read each answer - sometimes 3xs to make sure it's correct.

 

  • If you have a full-time job, think about taking a rest day before your exam to unwind and prep for your exam.
  • Clear your mind and schedule so you have time to focus on your studies.
  • Next, think about when are you most alert. Are you an early bird ๐Ÿฆ  rising at dawn and clear, or a mid-day type who feels energized in the afternoon โŒš  Either way, sync your test time to your best most active time that you are considered productive!
  • This helps with anxiety, rushing through the test, or feeling stuck.
  • Best of luck! ๐Ÿ‘

Thank your for your corrections and suggestions. 

I'll answer here the two bonus questions ๐Ÿ˜Š


QUESTION 1

  • Identify the special features of engagement program
    Stream: it is a set of content that the engagement program will use to nurture people in a particular stage. One nurturing setup can have multiple stream depending on buyer persona and how sales/marketing wants to nurture their leads
    Cast: it is the date when you want to start sending emails from engagement program
    Stream Cadence: it's the sequence or flow of event/actions.

    Person Cadence: it permits to set preference for individual member in the stream

    Content: they are the assets being used in the stream to nurture leads
    Exhaustedthe person who has received every content in a stream is called exhausted for that particular stream
    Content Engagement Level: it is a score from 0 to 100 that will be provided by Marketo to your content using opens, clicks, unsubscribes, program success, and other factors.


    QUESTION 2
  • List the 4 program types that Marketo has:

Great work @elenaburroni and reply!

 

You're up +2 points for engagement and question and answer! ๐Ÿ˜

 

Identify the special features of engagement program โœ”๏ธ
Streamit is a set of content that the engagement program will use to nurture people in a particular stage. One nurturing setup can have multiple stream depending on buyer persona and how sales/marketing wants to nurture their leads
Cast: it is the date when you want to start sending emails from engagement program

Content Engagement Level: it is a score from 0 to 100 that will be provided by Marketo to your content using opens, clicks, unsubscribes, program success, and other factors.

 

๐Ÿค“Very thorough and clear! A few more tips can be found here in the Marketo Guide for Creating An Engagement Program

Also, it's good know you can build drip campaigns with Default Programs using Smart Campaigns with Recurring Schedules.

That's if you have a very low-sequence promotional marketing campaign with a short period that you want to experiment with opposed to using a larger engagement program!

 

Example:

You may have Marketo Landing Page dedicated to people interested in winning a prize for a product promotion.

They visit your site, sign up, and give consent for communication.

You'll use this to send 5 emails to a new person. After the 5th email, if they have interacted with your emails (or website) and you send them a prize code to redeem. 

Anyone who redeems the code can now drop into a standard engagement program or they can be cultivated by your direct sales your sales team.

 

Anything is possible with your program builds and a great strategy! (This isn't an exam scenario, but a way to help you remember certain tips)

 

 

  • List the 4 program types that Marketo has: ***PERFECT***
    email program (email blast with some feature like A/B testing and email head start)
    engagement program (designed to deliver content to people in a systematic way. it's useful to accomplish complex nurturing)
    event program (to organize and automate offline or online events with attendees at a specific date and time)
    default program (other programs not including not event, engagement or email)

๐Ÿ™‚Nice! And these will be somewhere on the Section 1: Building and Managing programs in the Exam!

In the meantime study the following:

๐Ÿ“™Workspaces & Partitions can be tricky if your company never used them or if you are in the process of sectioning your instance.

๐Ÿ“˜Snippets are great features that come in handy with email or landing page builds. They save time and are efficient to use.

Hi All, happy Friday! I am very late to this party, but it's nice to meet all of you. ๐Ÿ˜Š

 

I am on the Business Communications team at Evernorth Health Services, a company of the Cigna Group. I have been managing B2B communications on this team for the past 3.5 years. We send around 400-500 emails through Marketo on an annual basis. I am very familiar with the tool and how it works, but do not build the emails themselves prior to sending them. 

 

I'm excited to jump in (and catch up!)
