Don't use request campaign! That's my opinion. I always think there's a better way to build programs that is more scalable and easier to track than using request campaign. #justsayin

I definitely always cross-check sfdc stats against marketo stats for every campaign because hypothetically they should always match (depending on when you sync/assign in SFDC). The third point you bring up is INCREDIBLY valid and I actually have created a custom field on my campaigns so that they ma...

I've had everything match for statuses and still encounter issues. I'm not sure if it's a permission based thing for the profile or what, but in general I've had this happen for myself and see it with a number of clients.

I'd start with Launch Point where you can find a list of partners that are approved by Marketo. Certified Services Partners – Marketo LaunchPoint

Try putting in a ticket and see if your API is overloaded. Otherwise, this is definitely an on-going issue for the auto campaign sync which is why I do all of mine manually in flow steps.

I agree with Kristen. With Marketo Custom objects coming out, it seems as though this might be a great use case for that. For the contacts that are associated with multiple accounts, is this data point different?

Okay, I know I'm an outlier on this BUT I personally don't use the auto-sync to Marketo campaign feature because 1) I've had issues with it matching to campaign statuses DESPITE matching my channel tags to the campaign steps 2) I'm partially convinced that when the API is overloaded for SFDC, the st...

The calendar is going to be best utilized for campaign launches of your content. In terms of managing your content funnel/process, I'd recommend using Google Docs with comments; those tend to be easiest. For inside of Marketo, you could keep the content (if it's a landing page/email) inside of the d...
