Social Media Questions

[Anonymous]

Any help would be appreciated.

Can the Marketo platform send text messages in addition to email?
Can it publish content from an email directly to social media outlets?

Yes, you can send text msgs.  See http://launchpoint.marketo.com/home/SearchForm?Search=sms&action_doSearch=Search for details

Please elaborate your 2nd use-case - are you trying to post msgs to various social network accounts from Marketo?

For the first one, is that an outside product that integrates with Marketo? Is that the only product that integrates and sends text messages that you know of? Does Marketo offer the capability to send text messages?

For your second question, yes, either parts of content from an email or a link to view the email etc.

Thanks!!

Yes, these are partner integrations available within Marketo as a webhook.  Fairly straightforward to configure and use.

For the 2nd item, we are working with Hootsuite and you should expect some functionality in Q1 2014

So what exactly does Marketo's social media plug in do?

Erin:

The Social program allows you to set up the social sharing of content, create polls on landing pages and enable social form fill in forms. It does not however include the ability to publish from Marketo as Raj pointed out. Sounds like there is something exciting options coming though.
