  • Email Link Perf reports: group by URL ignoring Query String?
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 12-09-2014 quickview

    In reports of type Email Link Performance, every unique URL, including the Query String, is given its own line under the E-mail name.We always add a unique ID in the QS (linked to the lead ID) for all outgoing mail. (Note: this is the only way to get Munchkin to track web pages by Marketo Lead, so ...

    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 12-08-2014

    Marketo has no way to mandate that a given Lead is included in a Smart List. Users cannot be trusted to always include specific clauses in their SLs. Thus the only way to ensure that Leads receive an e-mail or range of e-mails is to use trigger logic.For example, if our web video team always must be...

    I have a Smart Campaign w/Smart List that catches any 'Email is Delivered' activity (for any e-mail).My goal is to use the 'Alert' type of Flow step to send that same Email to a particular e-mail address.However, if I use the token {{Trigger.Name}} in the Email field on the Flow step, I get the erro...

  • Re: SSL for branding domain not landing page
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 11-17-2014

    Well, of course something is being displayed: the http:// or https:// URLs that I inserted into my original email, as well as the JS redirect code, which could be effortlessly read -- and almost as easily altered -- on its way to the browser.If an email links to https://www.example.com/my/product/pa...

  • SSL for branding domain not landing page
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 11-17-2014 quickview

    I've read that Marketo Support can manually import a cert to support https://landing_page.example.com.Can the same be done for our branding domain, e.g. https://click_tracking.example.com?

    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 11-10-2014 quickview

    It doesn't really make sense that clicking the "View as web page" link gets logged as "Clicked email" since what the lead is actually doing is viewing the email, exactly akin to what happens if they view the message in their e-mail client and download the tracking beacon. In fact the inability/unwi...

  • Re: Why are parent brands cool with only having one branding domain?
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 11-06-2014

    Thanks for thinking about it. Yes, this limitation is confirmed (in fact, voluntarily conveyed) by Marketo's professional services team. Landing pages are relatively flexible but not branding domains. You just get one.I'm glad you agree that exposing the parent brand is not good for your image -- i...

  • Why are parent brands cool with only having one branding domain?
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 11-06-2014 quickview

    To our chagrin, we have confirmed that even with workspaces activated, we get only one branding domain for all pURLs in all e-mails. This seems to fly in the face of the claim that workspaces and lead partitions can be used to manage several brands. If we were Gap, for example, we'd need a separat...

  • Re: Using personalized links without JavaScript
    by SanfordWhiteman name dot 10-28-2014

    ... unless you have some magic that allows Munchkin to associate the lead without manually inserting an identifiable value in every URL you ever use an e-mail. I am 99.999% sure no such thing exists.
