Forward to A friend

If i want to add a forward to a friend token in an email campaign, is there a way for me to track who forwards to a friend?

Thanks

Yes, you can create a smart list to see who clicked the link with the token in it.

This article also gives you an idea of your options as far as tracking the token:

You can also use litmus to track who forwards any email without needing a token. They have a great analytics tool that works with marketo emails. - Jeff

Use the "Sent Forward to a Friend Email" trigger to track who sends.

One last thing- if i'm tracking who clicks "forward the email", how would i track to see if the receiver actually clicks a link in the forwarded email?

You should be able to use the same filter/trigger, Click Link in Email, then specify the email. I have not done it myself, but I assume that should work.

Re: Forward to A friend

To follow up on this topic, what if I wanted to use a token to personilze a new email to the person who was forwarded an email using the first name of the lead who forwarded the email?

Example:

John forwards an email he received to Sally

Then, I want to have another email go to Sally that says something like "Your friend John thinks you would be interested in....etc, etc"

Is there a way to have this a) all be autimated through triggers and b) attribute the correct forwarding person with the new associated lead?

Thanks!
