UNICORN FINTECH COMPANY PROFILE
Unicorn Fintech is a mobile-only financial-servicesstartup created by a consortium of consumer banks to resell savings, checking, loan, transfer/remittance, and other services from a secure smartphone app. The company is venture-funded, and plans to reach profitability before a planned IPO in two years.
Business issues and requirements
Marketing is responsible for acquiring new customers 0 through online, television advertising, and email campaigns, and for cross-selling new services to customers through IM, email, and in-app campaigns.
Evaluating the success of these campaigns has been a persistent problem: although the company can track revenue by product line, it can't attribute those revenues to campaigns: for example, did a newloan come from onboarding a new customer, or by cross-selling a savings-account customer? Marketing currently uses crude, manual tools and guesswork to evaluate the quality and lifespan of new leads, and even the deliverability of emails in its external campaigns. As a result, the department can't allocate spending to the most productive campaigns, or decide how much different touchpoints in multi-stage campaigns contribute to revenue. Operational processes to connect lead data to CRM and other databases are entirely manual.
Staffing and leadership
Unicorn has fewer than 200 employees, and roles aren't always defined in traditional ways. Since customer acquisition and cross-selling are primarily through electronic channels, Marketing and IT roles especially often overlap. The traditional Sales role falls entirely to Marketing, and IT is responsible for the Salesforce CRM system, Google Analytics, and a handful of third-party integrations. The CMO and CIO work closely together on most initiatives, and budgets are typically project-driven rather than fixed annually. Individual contributors to Marketing campaigns include the Marketing Operations Manager, responsible for lead scoring and analytics. Key IT contacts include the CRM Administrator and Web Developer. Incidental contributors are the Corporate Attorney, who signs off on opt-in/out and DMARC policies.
Revenue sources
Unicorn earns commissions on financial services delivered by the banking consortium through its apps, including fixed finders' fees for what the company calls "skips"-customers who initially engage with Unicorn, but then "skip" to receive services directly from a consortium bank. Unicorn needs to attribute revenue from these customers to its own campaigns; currently, it's impossible to attribute ROI to individual campaigns, or provide documentation to claim commissions on "skips." Current and aspirational marketing technology Current Marketing technology consists of Marketable,an open-source lead management solution supported by a set of spreadsheets and scripts developed in-house. Marketable offers lead tracking and source attribution, but not multi-touch source attribution. Unicorn Fintech Marketing has difficulty linking the different stages of customer campaign journeys, and relies on scripts to translate Marketable's "sales alerts" into next steps it could use in multi-touch campaigns. IT has worked out scripts to input Marketable qualified leads into Salesforce, but the system is brittle and often requires manual intervention.
Current campaign management processes
A typical email campaign:
* Addresses a purchased (for customer acquisition) or0 in-house (for cross-sell) list. Purchased lists range from
300,000 to 1.5 million addresses
* Is sent from multiple data centers in the US and Canada
* Includes an "unsubscribe" opt-out below the message
* Is static; there are no formula fields
* Uses no deliverability authentication, nor integration 0 with any email management platform.
All campaigns to date direct respondents to a single 0 landing page with the company's "all markets" message.
More sophisticated targeting is a high priority.
Current lead management and attribution
Unicorn's lead-management process follows
Marketable's "out of the box" defaults: lead evaluation levels 1 through 3, lifecycle stages "unqualified" and
"qualified." The qualification processes are manual, and highly subjective: Marketing staff classify leads according to prospect email responses, including free-form comments. "Sales" followup is by email forms prompting higher levels of engagement. The company intends to phase out Marketable and replace spreadsheets and scripts with native features of whatever solution set it adopts.
Attribution processes are binary: response to a campaign email or web visit is rated a success if it results in a sale: there is no success rating assigned to TV ads that result in web visits, for example. Cost are not allocated to individual campaigns.
The Marketing department plans to expand outreach to social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, in-house and third-party financial blogs), and wants to make sure it can assess the ROI of these channels, and the overall social media program.
Current governance processes
Currently, the Marketing department assigns content development and campaign management duties to team members on a campaign-by-campaign basis. All team members (and IT) have access to all assets and tools, which sometimes leads to duplication and conflicts. The CMO realizes that a more specialization will be necessary to support the social media campaigns, but hasn't decided on the optimal organizational model.
Input of qualified leads from Marketable into
Salesforce is by manual cut-and-paste, assisted by scripts; inconsistency of input practices across Marketing team members is a known problem; individual members have their own "go-to" fields: where one member might check "TV ad" as Lead Source, another would put that in the comments field.
CMO
The CMO's most important concerns are:
* The current solution has too many manual steps to scale with anticipated growth
* Without more sophisticated attribution, the company will overinvest in less productive campaigns, and underinvest in better ones
* In general, analytics integrations are manual, slow, and unreliable
* The current system completely misses "skips"-customers switching from the Unicorn app to consortium banks-an important source of revenue
* Documenting the value of Unicorn's Marketing processes is essential to the success of the planned IPO, and millions of dollars in stock valuation hangs in the balance.
CIO
The CIO is concerned primarily with:
* The amount of time his team spends patching up Marketing campaigns and CRM data transfers, at the expense of other, critical initiatives
* Quality and reliability of the Analytics information his team provides to Marketing MARKETING STAFF Marketing Operations staff concerns:
* Campaigns require so much work that they can't run as many of them as they need to
* Multi-touch cross-selling campaigns (for example, savings accounts to loans) with excellent margins, but no way to know which campaign touches perform best
* Getting swamped with manual record-keeping; for example, spreadsheet mistakes take hours to find and fix
* Poor integration with third-party tools for preparing, sending, and evaluating campaign materials, for Example.
o Webhook not firing,
o Reaching API limit
o Synchronization errors with third-party tools and Salesforce
* Inadequate number of lead stages and qualification levels, making it difficult to evaluate lead value, especially in multi-touch campaigns Despite the absence of an external Sales team, Marketing Operations would like to improve the granularity of their lead tracking, including both lifecycle stages and quality levels, with "no score" and negative levels.
Unicorn reaches its Salesforce API limit daily, which causes a backlog of issues in each system. The workflow of the employees who have to use them is also heavily affected by this issue. It takes hours to days for the correct data to come into Adobe Marketo Engage and Salesforce but it's important for newleads to be synced after creation as soon as possible. The IT team has reviewed which applications are using the API and suspect Marketo Engage is the culprit.
Before raising their API limit, which two tasks should an Architect perform to resolve
- A. Remove any additional 'Sync to SFDC Workflow steps in Smart Campaigns other than the dedicated ones managing the sync
- B. Change any third-party form integrations into Marketo Engage or Salesforce forms to cut down on additional API usage
- C. Change any additional Smart Campaigns with the 'Sync to SFDC workflow steps into batch campaigns that run daily to reduce load
- D. Change any additional Smart Campaigns with the 'Sync to SFDC workflow steps to Request Campaign that runs daily to reduce load
- E. Change from using 'Add to Salesforce Campaign' smart campaign workflow step, and instead use the native 'Marketo Program/Campaign' sync setup
Answer: C,D
Explanation:
Explanation
Changing any additional Smart Campaigns with the 'Sync to SFDC workflow steps to Request Campaign that runs daily to reduce load and changing any additional Smart Campaigns with the 'Sync to SFDC workflow steps into batch campaigns that run daily to reduce load are two tasks that an Architect should perform to resolve the issue of reaching the Salesforce API limit daily. These tasks would help reduce the number of API calls made by Marketo Engage to Salesforce and avoid exceeding the rate limit or concurrency limit. Changing any third-party form integrations into Marketo Engage or Salesforce forms to cut down on additional API usage would not help with the issue of syncing new leads as soon as possible. Changing from using 'Add to Salesforce Campaign' smart campaign workflow step, and instead use the native 'Marketo Program/Campaign' sync setup would not reduce the number of API calls made by Marketo Engage to Salesforce. Removing any additional 'Sync to SFDC Workflow steps in Smart Campaigns other than the dedicated ones managing the sync would not ensure that new leads are synced after creation as soon as possible.

NEW QUESTION # 32
FADE IN:
CUSTOMER CONTACT - SCORING DILEMMA
In a virtual meeting, a marketing executive in
business attire, speaks directly to the camera. The screen displays the executive's name and title (CMO).
CMO
It's nice to meet you. Welcome to our growing B2B tech SaaS company. I heard you've spoken with the CIO.
Good. Listen, I have a specific concern I'd like you to evaluate.
Marketing, my team, we're really ramping up our demand generation activities. We have a lot of leads coming in and we are pushing over an increasing amount of marketing qualified leads to the inside sales team.
(shakes their head)
The volume we're pushing-inside sales is just
getting inundated, and they don't know how to prioritize or who to follow up with first. My team has a lot of data and context to send over to the sales team, but it's just too much for them to take in all at once. I don't want us to waste these opportunities. Tell me, how can I use scoring to help with this challenge we're in9 FADE OUT:
THE END
At Treat Snack Inc, a company that specializes in unique local ethnic snacks, the new CMO is being bombarded by complaints from the sales team that a high volume of MQLs are being delivered to the sales team. There is no context around why they reached MQL, what it is about them, as well as what they did that caused them to MQL. The CMO decides to overhaul the entire scoring system and build a new method from scratch.
The Sales team is interviewed to understand what indicated a good person to speak with who has a high likelihood of wanting to take a meeting. The Sales team reports that their best leads have the following traits in order of priority starting with the most helpful trait:
1. People who attended a webinar on different types of treats enjoyed in different global regions
2. People who have a title of director and higher, followed by whether the account was larger than 1000 employees
3. People who work for companies that look similar to companies that they have sold to previously
4. People who have a high interest in their chocolate tasting line of products
5. People who search the web for wholesale suppliers of gourmet treats
In which order should the different types of scoring be rolled out?
- A. Predictive, Behavior Demographic, Intent, Product
- B. Behavior, Demographic, Predictive, Product, Intent
- C. Behavior, Intent, Demographic, Product, Predictive
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
The order of the different types of scoring should be based on the priority and feasibility of the traits that the Sales team identified. Behavior scoring should be rolled out first, because it captures the most helpful trait of attending a webinar, as well as other actions that indicate interest and engagement. Demographic scoring should be rolled out next, because it captures the second most helpful trait of title and company size, as well as other attributes that indicate fit and qualification. Predictive scoring should be rolled out third, because it captures the third most helpful trait of working for similar companies, as well as other factors that indicate propensity and likelihood to buy.Product scoring should be rolled out fourth, because it captures the fourth most helpful trait of having a high interest in their chocolate tasting line of products, as well as other preferences and needs that indicate product fit and value. Intent scoring should be rolled out last, because it captures the fifth most helpful trait of searching the web for wholesale suppliers of gourmet treats, as well as other signals that indicate buying intent and readiness.

NEW QUESTION # 33
An enterprise software company sells its products directly to its B2B customers but also sells their product through third-party sellers. The company runs marketing campaigns directly to their B2B target audience.
They also provide funds to the third-party sellers to run campaigns on the company's behalf. In return, the leads and engagement are provided by the third-party seller when a campaign is complete. Any data must be passed to Salesforce due to reporting being done in Salesforce.
Programs and channels should be set up to report on the efficacy of direct marketing and investment to third-party seller/partner marketing to determine how budget should be spent the following year.
How should this requirement be met?
- A. Two sets of event based channels should be created: one set for direct marketing and the otherfor third-party seller marketing
- B. One set of channels should be created, and separate program statuses should be used to designate Direct or Partner
- C. One set of channels should be created, and a tag should be used to determine Direct or Partner
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
The requirement should be met by creating one set of channels and using separate program statuses to designate Direct or Partner. This will allow the company to report on the efficacy of direct marketing and investment to third-party seller/partner marketing, as well as to determine how budget should be spent the following year. Creating one set of channels will enable the company to use consistent and standardized metrics and definitions for each channel type, such as webinar, paid social, virtual event, etc. Using separate program statuses to designate Direct or Partner will enable the company to differentiate and track the performance and ROI of each marketing channel based on whether it was executed by the company or by a third-party seller.

Unicorn has been having an issue with data quality coming from their Adobe Marketo Engage instance. An audit finds that a key issue is that Marketers and IT members lacked knowledge in best practice processes for the following tasks:
* Importing data to Marketo Engage or CRM in incorrect format or with old information
* Setting up forms to comply with Data Standardization (such as String Country fields to fill out)
* Importing large purchased lists without any minimal validation
Unicorn agrees with the auditor's recommendations to roll out enablement as part of a way to solve the problems.
Which two steps should be a part of this enablement? (Choose two.)
- A. Buy lists from a third-party data provider that are GDPR compliant with no country values
- B. Set up training sessions that covers List Import and Form best practices for both day-to-day users and Marketo Engage 'Power Users'
- C. Remove access to users who are the 'worst offenders' until they have successfully passed the Marketo Certified Associate Exam
- D. Set up a Roles and Permissions workshop with the CMO and CIO to capture and enforce the right level of access for level of Marketo Engage usage
- E. Align IT and Marketing Ops teams on what level of responsibility each team should have on data management in Marketo Engage
Answer: B,E
Explanation:
Explanation
Setting up training sessions that covers List Import and Form best practices for both day-to-day users and Marketo Engage 'Power Users' is a good step to be part of the enablement, as it would help the users to learn how to avoid common data quality issues and follow the best practices for importing data and creating forms.
Aligning IT and Marketing Ops teams on what level of responsibility each team should have on data management in Marketo Engage is another good step to be part of the enablement, as it would help to clarify the roles and expectations of each team and ensure a consistent and collaborative approach to data quality.
Setting up a Roles and Permissions workshop with the CMO and CIO to capture and enforce the right level of access for level of Marketo Engage usage is not a bad step, but it is not directly related to the data quality issues or the enablement of the users. Removing access to users who are the 'worst offenders' until they have successfully passed the Marketo Certified Associate Exam is not a good step, as it would be punitive and disruptive to the users' work. Buying lists from a third-party data provider that are GDPR compliant with no country values is not a good step, as it would not solve the data quality issues or improve the users' knowledge of best practices.

Unicorn Fintech plays a key role in a subset of applications for loans that happen at Consortium Banks. The Unicorn Marketing Operations team has the ability to integrate with these banks to pull this application data into Adobe Marketo Engage so they can automate their involvement in this process. They have discussed this data integration with their legal team, and it has been approved. Based on this, Unicorn decides to proceed with this integration and wants to pull all available data in because other Marketo Engage campaigns can be run in the future to this audience. Part of the initial requirements of this process include Unicorn emailing the customer if they reach a certain stage in the application process. Only certain customers will be added to this stage, so only those customers can be contacted by Unicorn as part of this initial process.
How should this information be stored in Marketo Engage?
- A. Push each record to a Program if they meet the right loan stage criteria
- B. Create a Custom Object linked to the person record
- C. Store the data in custom fields on the person record
- D. Create a Custom Activity linked to the person record
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
Creating a Custom Object linked to the person record is the best way to store the information in Marketo Engage. This way, the data can be stored in a structured and scalable way, without cluttering the person record with too many custom fields. The Custom Object can also be used to trigger smart campaigns based on the loan stage criteria. Pushing each record to a Program if they meet the right loan stage criteria would not store the data in Marketo Engage, but only associate the record with a Program. Storing the data in custom fields on the person record would not be efficient or scalable, as there might be many fields and values to store for each loan application. Creating a Custom Activity linked to the person record would not allow for triggering smart campaigns based on the loan stage criteria, as Custom Activities are only available for segmentation and reporting.
NEW QUESTION # 36
A marketer is in charge of marketing campaigns for a company that creates customized vinyl figurines. The marketer is launching a multi-channel campaign that will include nurture, webinars, paid social ads, virtual events, and more. The marketer creates a nurture email program that consists of a series of six emails to be sent once a week and wants to understand the impact. The target audience will be put through many campaigns.
When reporting on effectiveness or ineffectiveness of an email nurture, which two valid metrics should the marketer utilize to decide what to do next? (Choose two.)
- A. The number of completed calls to action, typically conversions or form fills, driven specifically by '-' the nurture
- B. The number of people who unsubscribed from the nurture
- C. The number of completed calls to action, typically conversions or form fills, driven by the multi-*-* channel campaign
- D. The number of MQLs that were created by the multi-channel campaign
- E. The number of people entering the nurture
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
Explanation
The two valid metrics that the marketer should utilize to decide what to do next are the number of completed calls to action, typically conversions or form fills, driven specifically by the nurture and the number of people who unsubscribed from the nurture. These metrics will help the marketer to understand the impact and effectiveness of the nurture email program, as well as to identify areas for improvement or optimization. The number of completed calls to action, typically conversions or form fills, driven specifically by the nurture will enable the marketer to measure how well the nurture emails are engaging and persuading leads to take a desired action, such as downloading a whitepaper, registering for a webinar, requesting a demo, etc. The number of people who unsubscribed from the nurture will enable the marketer to measure how well the nurture emails are retaining and satisfying leads, as well as to avoid sending unwanted or irrelevant emails.

An Architect needs to create a program that captures leads and evaluates if the leads are new or existing.
Engagement will also be captured on all leads. Only new leads must be scored and sent a welcome email.
Existing leads will then be excluded from the program and sent back through the API to the third-party company.
Which order of steps is required to build this program?
- A. Change Data Value > Change Program Status > Call Webhook > Remove from Flow > Send Email
- B. Remove from Flow > Call Webhook > Change Data Value > Change Program Status > Change Score
- C. Change Program Status > Call Webhook > Change Data Value > Send Email > Remove from Flow
- D. Remove from Flow > Change Data Value > Add to Program > Change Score > Call Webhook
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
The order of steps required to build this program is to change data value, change program status, call webhook, remove from flow, and send email. This is because these steps will allow the program to capture leads and evaluate if they are new or existing, aswell as capture engagement and perform the desired actions. The change data value step will update the person source and asset name fields based on the API information. The change program status step will update the program status based on whether the lead is new or existing. The call webhook step will send existing leads back to the third-party company through the API. The remove from flow step will exclude existing leads from the program. The send email step will send a welcome email to new leads only. The other options are not as correct as this one, because they either miss some of the required steps or include some of the unnecessary steps.

NEW QUESTION # 38
An Adobe Marketo Engage Architect is working for Too Big to Fail Co., an enterprise company that has an
8-year-old Marketo Engage instance (A). Too Big to Fail Co. recently purchased start up Treat Snack LTD, which has 100 employees and its own Marketo Engage instance (B). The Architect needs to merge the two instances and maintain business continuity. No additional budget, funding, or resources are available for the merger and migration.
The Architect needs to determine the most important actions to take for the minimum viable solution to meet the business needs. The two instances need to be merged in 3 months.
Which actions should the Architect take?
- A. * Dedupe the instance (B) database and import the leads into instance (A)
* Determine the highest-performing assets and rebuild the campaigns relevant to those assets
* Audit the instance for critical business functions
* Rebuild in instance (A) - B. * Dedupe instance (A) database and import the leads into instance (B)
* Determine the highest-performing assets and rebuild the campaigns relevant to those assets
* Audit the instance for critical business functions
* Rebuild in instance (B) - C. * Spin up a new instance (C)
* Dedupe leads across both instances (A and B) and import into the new instance (C)
* Audit highest-performing assets and key critical campaigns in both instances
* Rebuild in the new instance (C)
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
The most important actions to take for the minimum viable solution are to dedupe the instance (B) database and import the leads into instance (A), determine the highest-performing assets and rebuild the campaigns relevant to those assets, audit the instance for critical business functions, and rebuild in instance (A). This is because instance (A) is older and likely has more data, assets, and integrations than instance (B), and it would be easier and faster to migrate the smaller instance into the larger one. Deduping the leads and determining the highest-performing assets are essential steps to avoid data quality issues and maintain campaign performance.
Auditing the instance for critical business functions and rebuilding them in instance (A) are necessary steps to ensure business continuity and alignment. The other options are not as feasible or efficient as this one, because they involve creating a new instance or migrating the larger instance into the smaller one, which would require more time, resources, and complexity.

NEW QUESTION # 39
A company has a Contact Us form that contains a text field called "Comments" where prospects describe their needs to provide sales with context for follow-up. When this form is completed, a Marketing Qualified Lead (MQL) is generated and sent to sales. The "Comments" field is a custom text field. Leads often write lengthy descriptions that exceed 140 characters. The "Comments" field is not synced to CRM. Another field called
"Notes" is synced to CRM. This is also a text field. The "Notes" field is often used by Sales and is commonly overwritten by Sales. Both Sales and Marketing agree that the "Comments" field is important and want to give the prospect space to describe their needs.
An Adobe Marketo Engage Architect needs to set up an interesting moment that is triggered upon the Contact Us form fill that contains the "Comments" value to give Sales immediate context of the inquiry.
Which two actions must the Marketo Engage Architect take to fulfill this request? (Choose two.) Which two actions must the Marketo Engage Architect take to fulfill this request? (Choose two.)
- A. Change the "Comments" field type from text to string to capture longer comments
- B. Switch the field mapping on the Marketo form from "Comments" to "Notes"
- C. Create the "Comments" field in CRM, sync it to Marketo, and have Marketo Support remap it
- D. Have Marketo Support re-map the "Comments" field in Marketo to the "Notes" CRM field
- E. Use a token in the Interesting Moment to populate info from the "Comments" field
Answer: C,E
Explanation:
Explanation
The two actions that the Marketo Engage Architect must take to fulfill this request are to use a token in the Interesting Moment to populate info from the "Comments" field and to create the "Comments" field in CRM, sync it to Marketo, and have Marketo Support remap it. These actions will allow the Architect to set up an interesting moment that is triggered upon the Contact Us form fill that contains the "Comments" value to give Sales immediate context of the inquiry. Using a token in the Interesting Moment will enable the Architect to dynamically insert the value of the "Comments" field into the interesting moment description. Creating the
"Comments" field in CRM, syncing it to Marketo, and having Marketo Support remap it will enable the Architect to preserve the value of the "Comments" field in both systems and avoid overwriting the "Notes" field that is used by Sales.

NEW QUESTION # 41
Refer to the case study.
UNICORN FINTECH COMPANY PROFILE
Unicorn Fintech is a mobile-only financial-servicesstartup created by a consortium of consumer banks to resell savings, checking, loan, transfer/remittance, and other services from a secure smartphone app. The company is venture-funded, and plans to reach profitability before a planned IPO in two years.
Business issues and requirements
Marketing is responsible for acquiring new customers 0 through online, television advertising, and email campaigns, and for cross-selling new services to customers through IM, email, and in-app campaigns.
Evaluating the success of these campaigns has been a persistent problem: although the company can track revenue by product line, it can't attribute those revenues to campaigns: for example, did a new loan come from onboarding a new customer, or by cross-selling a savings-account customer? Marketing currently uses crude, manual tools and guesswork to evaluate the quality and lifespan of new leads, and even the deliverability of emails in its external campaigns. As a result, the department can't allocate spending to the most productive campaigns, or decide how much different touchpoints in multi-stage campaigns contribute to revenue. Operational processes to connect lead data to CRM and other databases are entirely manual.
Staffing and leadership
Unicorn has fewer than 200 employees, and roles aren't always defined in traditional ways. Since customer acquisition and cross-selling are primarily through electronic channels, Marketing and IT roles especially often overlap. The traditional Sales role falls entirely to Marketing, and IT is responsible for the Salesforce CRM system, Google Analytics, and a handful of third-party integrations. The CMO and CIO work closely together on most initiatives, and budgets are typically project-driven rather than fixed annually. Individual contributors to Marketing campaigns include the Marketing Operations Manager, responsible for lead scoring and analytics. Key IT contacts include the CRM Administrator and Web Developer. Incidental contributors are the Corporate Attorney, who signs off on opt-in/out and DMARC policies.
Revenue sources
Unicorn earns commissions on financial services delivered by the banking consortium through its apps, including fixed finders' fees for what the company calls "skips"-customers who initially engage with Unicorn, but then "skip" to receive services directly from a consortium bank. Unicorn needs to attribute revenue from these customers to its own campaigns; currently, it's impossible to attribute ROI to individual campaigns, or provide documentation to claim commissions on "skips." Current and aspirational marketing technology Current Marketing technology consists of Marketable,an open-source lead management solution supported by a set of spreadsheets and scripts developed in-house. Marketable offers lead tracking and source attribution, but not multi-touch source attribution. Unicorn Fintech Marketing has difficulty linking the different stages of customer campaign journeys, and relies on scripts to translate Marketable's "sales alerts" into next steps it could use in multi-touch campaigns. IT has worked out scripts to input Marketable qualified leads into Salesforce, but the system is brittle and often requires manual intervention.
Current campaign management processes
A typical email campaign:
* Addresses a purchased (for customer acquisition) or0 in-house (for cross-sell) list. Purchased lists range from
300,000 to 1.5 million addresses
* Is sent from multiple data centers in the US and Canada
* Includes an "unsubscribe" opt-out below the message
* Is static; there are no formula fields
* Uses no deliverability authentication, nor integration 0 with any email management platform.
All campaigns to date direct respondents to a single 0 landing page with the company's "all markets" message.
More sophisticated targeting is a high priority.
Current lead management and attribution
Unicorn's lead-management process follows
Marketable's "out of the box" defaults: lead evaluation levels 1 through 3, lifecycle stages "unqualified" and
"qualified." The qualification processes are manual, and highly subjective: Marketing staff classify leads according to prospect email responses, including free-form comments. "Sales" followup is by email forms prompting higher levels of engagement. The company intends to phase out Marketable and replace spreadsheets and scripts with native features of whatever solution set it adopts.
Attribution processes are binary: response to a campaign email or web visit is rated a success if it results in a sale: there is no success rating assigned to TV ads that result in web visits, for example. Cost are not allocated to individual campaigns.
The Marketing department plans to expand outreach to social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, in-house and third-party financial blogs), and wants to make sure it can assess the ROI of these channels, and the overall social media program.
Current governance processes
Currently, the Marketing department assigns content development and campaign management duties to team members on a campaign-by-campaign basis. All team members (and IT) have access to all assets and tools, which sometimes leads to duplication and conflicts. The CMO realizes that a more specialization will be necessary to support the social media campaigns, but hasn't decided on the optimal organizational model.
Input of qualified leads from Marketable into
Salesforce is by manual cut-and-paste, assisted by scripts; inconsistency of input practices across Marketing team members is a known problem; individual members have their own "go-to" fields: where one member might check "TV ad" as Lead Source, another would put that in the comments field.
CMO
The CMO's most important concerns are:
* The current solution has too many manual steps to scale with anticipated growth
* Without more sophisticated attribution, the company will overinvest in less productive campaigns, and underinvest in better ones
* In general, analytics integrations are manual, slow, and unreliable
* The current system completely misses "skips"-customers switching from the Unicorn app to consortium banks-an important source of revenue
* Documenting the value of Unicorn's Marketing processes is essential to the success of the planned IPO, and millions of dollars in stock valuation hangs in the balance.
CIO
The CIO is concerned primarily with:
* The amount of time his team spends patching up Marketing campaigns and CRM data transfers, at the expense of other, critical initiatives
* Quality and reliability of the Analytics information his team provides to Marketing MARKETING STAFF Marketing Operations staff concerns:
* Campaigns require so much work that they can't run as many of them as they need to
* Multi-touch cross-selling campaigns (for example, savings accounts to loans) with excellent margins, but no way to know which campaign touches perform best
* Getting swamped with manual record-keeping; for example, spreadsheet mistakes take hours to find and fix
* Poor integration with third-party tools for preparing, sending, and evaluating campaign materials, for Example.
o Webhook not firing,
o Reaching API limit
o Synchronization errors with third-party tools and Salesforce
* Inadequate number of lead stages and qualification levels, making it difficult to evaluate lead value, especially in multi-touch campaigns Despite the absence of an external Sales team, Marketing Operations would like to improve the granularity of their lead tracking, including both lifecycle stages and quality levels, with "no score" and negative levels.
Unicorn currently uses a manual and subjective process of moving Leads through the pipeline. Unicorn wants to utilize Adobe Marketo Engage for a more autonomous and effective process. The Marketing Operations team plans to set up a Revenue Cycle Model powered by key behavior such as form fills. Scoring also needs to be set up, and Marketing and 'Sales' nurture campaigns that reference the Model stages will be built afterward.
Unicorn needs to obtain the resources and budget to implement these projects.
Who should be involved in initial discussions before implementation begins?
- A. CMO, CIO, and the CRM administrator
- B. Marketing Ops team leader, CRM administrator, and the Web Developer
- C. CMO and the Marketing department
- D. Marketing team leaders, the CRM administrator, and the IT team
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
The CMO, CIO, and the CRM administrator should be involved in initial discussions before implementation begins. The CMO and CIO are the key decision-makers who can approve the resources and budget for the projects, as well as align the business goals and strategy. The CRM administrator is the key contact for the Salesforce CRM system, which needs to be integrated with Marketo Engage for the Revenue Cycle Model and the scoring. The Marketing department and the Marketing Ops team leader are not directly involved in the initial discussions, as they are more focused on the execution and optimization of the campaigns. The Web Developer is not directly involved in the initial discussions, as they are more focused on the technical aspects of the web integrations.
NEW QUESTION # 42
An Adobe Marketo Engage Architect joins a company and needs to audit a prospect engagement scoring model. The previous administrator did not properly set up or maintain the model. The Marketing and Sales teams identify all engagement elements they want the new revamped model to score on. The administrator needs to make improvements.
According to best practices, what are the three important elements for the Architect to consider when updating the scoring model? (Choose three.)
- A. Scoring tokens are in use for all scoring values in the model.
- B. All scoring triggers are held in an operational Program in Marketing Activities.
- C. Make sure only Leads are scored on this model, not the entire database.
- D. The scoring for all form activities happens within the individual form Programs.
- E. A new Channel is set up for "Scoring" and all Programs related to scoring use this Channel.
- F. The frequency of scoring is considered in the implementation of the model.
Answer: A,B,F
Explanation:
Explanation
The three important elements for the Architect to consider when updating the scoring model are to use scoring tokens for all scoring values in the model, to consider the frequency of scoring in the implementation of the model, and to hold all scoring triggers in an operational program in Marketing Activities. These elements will help the Architect to audit and improve the existing prospect engagement scoring model according to best practices. Using scoring tokens for all scoring values in the model will enable the Architect to easily adjust and maintain the scoring values across different campaigns and programs, instead of hard-coding them.
Considering the frequency of scoring in the implementation of the model will enable the Architect to avoid over-scoring or under-scoring leads based on their actions and behaviors, and to set appropriate time frames and limits for scoring triggers. Holding all scoring triggers in an operational program in Marketing Activities will enable the Architect to centralize and organize all the scoring campaigns and assets in one place, instead of scattering them across different folders or workspaces.

An Adobe Marketo Engage customer recently started using a new Survey platform to measure Net Promoter Score (NPS). The company began using this platform 3 months ago. The company invites new customers to complete the surveys by batching out invites monthly to imported lists of customers that meet the criteria from data held in Salesforce Custom Objects. The company has the native Salesforce sync in place. The survey invite email is sent from Marketo Engage and currently invites the customer to the survey platform via a generic link to start the survey. The company can not know whether the customer completed the survey or what responses they provided. The company does not want to maintain history of the NPS score. They want to know the latest NPS score only.
Which three important architectural recommendations should an Architect suggest to scale this platform and its integration with Marketo Engage? (Choose three.)
- A. Pass a unique customer identifier to the survey platform for each survey invite sent
- B. Create a specific channel for "NPS Survey'1 in Adobe Marketo Engage to track the Program
- C. Sync relevant Custom Object data from Salesforce and automate inviting customers to the survey
- D. Create a Custom Object in Adobe Marketo Engage to store all survey responses
- E. Integrate survey responses back into custom fields in Adobe Marketo Engage to capture key survey responses
- F. Filter on NPS values using a Smartlist and communicate with different audiences based on their level of satisfaction
Answer: A,C
Explanation:
Explanation
The three important architectural recommendations that an Architect should suggest to scale this platform and its integration with Marketo Engage are to sync relevant Custom Object data from Salesforce and automate inviting customers to the survey, to pass a unique customer identifier to the survey platform for each survey invite sent, and to integrate survey responses back into custom fields in Adobe Marketo Engage to capture key survey responses. These recommendations will help the company to streamline and optimize their NPS survey process, as well as to track and measure the survey results and customer satisfaction. Syncing relevant Custom Object data from Salesforce will allow the company to use smart campaigns and triggers to invite customers to the survey based on their criteria, instead of manually importing lists. Passing a unique customer identifier to the survey platform will allow the company to link the survey responses to the individual customers, instead of using a generic link. Integrating survey responses back into custom fields in Adobe Marketo Engage will allow the company to store and update the latest NPS score for each customer, as well as other key survey responses, instead of creating a Custom Object or relying on an external platform.

NEW QUESTION # 44
After evaluating global operations, the Marketing Operations team for a mid-sized organization determines that changes must be made to how many operational processes are running in their Adobe Marketo Engage instance. Some processes that cleanse and enrich the data being synced to Marketo Engage from Salesforce must be retired. The team negotiates a new process with Sales Operations to make values in certain data fields compulsory before a salesperson can save a new Contact in the CRM.
Before pushing this change live, which stakeholders must be enabled in the new process?
- A. CMO, CFO, Sales Operations, Head of Sales, and the Marketing team
- B. The CMO. Data Analysts, the Head of Sales, and the Marketing team
- C. Marketing team, Sales Operations, and the Head of Sales
- D. Sales Operations, Sales Representatives, Sales Managers, and Data Analysts
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
The stakeholders that must be enabled in the new process are Sales Operations, Sales Representatives, Sales Managers, and Data Analysts. This is because these are the roles that are directly involved in creating, managing, and reporting on Contacts in the CRM. Sales Operations is responsible for setting up and enforcing the new data validation rules. Sales Representatives and Sales Managers are responsible for entering and updating Contact data in compliance with the new rules. Data Analysts are responsible for monitoring and evaluating the data quality and performance metrics. The other options are not as relevant or necessary as this one, because they do notinclude all the key roles or they include roles that are not directly affected by the new process.

NEW QUESTION # 45
An Adobe Marketo Engage Consultant is assigned to audit an existing Marketo Engage instance. The instance is 2 years old and follows a de-centralized model for program execution. Therefore, all marketers within the organization have been trained to operate and build in the Marketo Engage instance independently. During the audit, the consultant discovers:
1. Naming convention does not exist. Therefore, all program names are named arbitrarily.
2. There are four Marketo Engage Admins: The marketing operations manager, the demand generation manager, the CRM administrator, and the IT manager. All four admins have access to everything and have been creating fields on their own to fit individual business needs.
3. There is one workspace for the entire instance. However, the company has paid for additional workspaces.
4. There are two Revenue Lifecycle Models: a prospect lifecycle and a customer lifecycle.
The CMO wants to prioritize the following goals:
1. Ability to pull quick reports for prospect programs and customer programs from a reporting tool like Tableau.
2. Change the operating model from de-centralized to centralized so the marketing operations manager and CRM administrator are the only two people managing the operational side of the Marketo Engage instance and a new agency will manage the campaign execution on the behalf of marketing.
Which three recommendations should the Consultant make? (Choose three.)
- A. Increase the access for the marketing operations manager and CRM administrator to super admin so they can override the field creations from others
- B. Create two workspaces: A prospect workspace and a customer workspace
- C. Create two workspaces: An operational workspace and a marketing workspace
- D. Reduce the access for the demand generation manager and IT manager to a limited role that cannot create fields
- E. Create a naming convention that tags customer vs prospect campaigns
- F. Create a folder structure to organize customer vs prospect campaigns
Answer: B,D,E
Explanation:
Explanation
The three recommendations that the Consultant should make are to create two workspaces: A prospect workspace and a customer workspace, to create a naming convention that tags customer vs prospect campaigns, and to reduce the access for the demand generation manager and IT manager to a limited role that cannot create fields. These recommendations will help the company to achieve their goals of pulling quick reports for prospect programs and customer programs from a reporting tool like Tableau, and changing the operating model from de-centralized to centralized. Creating two workspaces: A prospect workspace and a customer workspace will enable the company to segment and organize their programs based on their target audience, as well as to leverage their existing workspaces feature. Creating a naming convention that tags customer vs prospect campaigns will enable the company to standardize and identify their programs based on their purpose, as well as to facilitate reporting and analysis. Reducing the access for the demand generation manager and IT manager to a limited role that cannot create fields will enable the company to centralize and control their field management process, as well as to avoid field duplication or inconsistency.

NEW QUESTION # 46
A company has a meeting with a third party that wants to begin submitting leads captured through various channels. These leads are aware that the third party will share their information with the company and have provided consent through their engagement. The third party will send the leads through a REST API.
Which steps should the Adobe Marketo Engage Architect take to make sure that the REST API is set up correctly?
- A. Create API User Role, Create a new API User, Create new Launchpoint Service, Run a Call test with Identity and Endpoint
- B. Create API User Role, Use an existing API User, Create new Launchpoint Service, Run a Call test with Token and Identity
- C. Create API User Role, Use an existing API User, Create new Launchpoint Service, Run a Call test with Identity and Endpoint
- D. Create API User Role, Create a new API User, Create new Launchpoint Service, Run a Call test with Token and Endpoint
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
The steps that the Adobe Marketo Engage Architect should take to make sure that the REST API is set up correctly are to create API User Role, create a new API User, create new Launchpoint Service, and run a Call test with Identity and Endpoint. These steps will allow the Architect to configure and test the REST API integration with Marketo Engage. Creating API User Role will enable the Architect to define the permissions and access level for the API User. Creating a new API User will enable the Architect to generate a unique Client ID and Client Secret for authentication. Creating new Launchpoint Service will enable the Architect to register and manage the third-party service in Marketo Engage. Running a Call test with Identity and Endpoint will enable the Architect to verify that the API calls are working properly and that leads can be submitted through various channels.

Marketing is responsible for acquiring new customers 0 through online, television advertising, and email campaigns, and for cross-selling new services to customers through IM, email, and in-app campaigns.
Evaluating the success of these campaigns has been a persistent problem: although the company can track revenue by product line, it can't attribute those revenues to campaigns: for example, did a new loan come from onboarding a new customer, or by cross-selling a savings-account customer? Marketing currently uses crude, manual tools and guesswork to evaluate the quality and lifespan of new leads, and even the deliverability of emails in its external campaigns. As a result, the department can't allocate spending to the most productive campaigns, or decide how much different touchpoints in multi-stage campaigns contribute to revenue. Operational processes to connect lead data to CRM and other databases are entirely manual.
Staffing and leadership
Unicorn has fewer than 200 employees, and roles aren't always defined in traditional ways. Since customer acquisition and cross-selling are primarily through electronic channels, Marketing and IT roles especially often overlap. The traditional Sales role falls entirely to Marketing, and IT is responsible for the Salesforce CRM system, Google Analytics, and a handful of third-party integrations. The CMO and CIO work closely together on most initiatives, and budgets are typically project-driven rather than fixed annually. Individual contributors to Marketing campaigns include the Marketing Operations Manager, responsible for lead scoring and analytics. Key IT contacts include the CRM Administrator and WebDeveloper. Incidental contributors are the Corporate Attorney, who signs off on opt-in/out and DMARC policies.
Revenue sources
Unicorn earns commissions on financial services delivered by the banking consortium through its apps, including fixed finders' fees for what the company calls "skips"-customers who initially engage with Unicorn, but then "skip" to receive services directly from a consortium bank. Unicorn needs to attribute revenue from these customers to its own campaigns; currently, it's impossible to attribute ROI to individual campaigns, or provide documentation to claim commissions on "skips." Current and aspirational marketing technology Current Marketing technology consists of Marketable,an open-source lead management solution supported by a set of spreadsheets and scripts developed in-house. Marketable offers lead tracking and source attribution, but not multi-touch source attribution. Unicorn Fintech Marketing has difficulty linking the different stages of customer campaign journeys, and relies on scripts to translate Marketable's "sales alerts" into next steps it could use in multi-touch campaigns. IT has worked out scripts to input Marketable qualified leads into Salesforce, but the system is brittle and often requires manual intervention.
Current campaign management processes
A typical email campaign:
* Addresses a purchased (for customer acquisition) or0 in-house (for cross-sell) list. Purchased lists range from
300,000 to 1.5 million addresses
* Is sent from multiple data centers in the US and Canada
* Includes an "unsubscribe" opt-out below the message
* Is static; there are no formula fields
* Uses no deliverability authentication, nor integration 0 with any email management platform.
All campaigns to date direct respondents to a single 0 landing page with the company's "all markets" message.
More sophisticated targeting is a high priority.
Current lead management and attribution
Unicorn's lead-management process follows
Marketable's "out of the box" defaults: lead evaluation levels 1 through 3, lifecycle stages "unqualified" and
"qualified." The qualification processes are manual, and highly subjective: Marketing staff classify leads according to prospect email responses, including free-form comments. "Sales" followup is by email forms prompting higher levels of engagement. The company intends to phase out Marketable and replace spreadsheets and scripts with native features of whatever solution set it adopts.
Attribution processes are binary: response to a campaign email or web visit is rated a success if it results in a sale: there is no success rating assigned to TV ads that result in web visits, for example. Cost are not allocated to individual campaigns.
The Marketing department plans to expand outreach to social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, in-house and third-party financial blogs), and wants to make sure it can assess the ROI of these channels, and the overall social media program.
Current governance processes
Currently, the Marketing department assigns content development and campaign management duties to team members on a campaign-by-campaign basis. All team members (and IT) have access to all assets and tools, which sometimes leads to duplication and conflicts. The CMO realizes that a more specialization will be necessary to support the social media campaigns, but hasn't decided on the optimal organizational model.
Input of qualified leads from Marketable into
Salesforce is by manual cut-and-paste, assisted by scripts; inconsistency of input practices across Marketing team members is a known problem; individual members have their own "go-to" fields: where one member might check "TV ad" as Lead Source, another would put that in the comments field.
CMO
The CMO's most important concerns are:
* The current solution has too many manual steps to scale with anticipated growth
* Without more sophisticated attribution, the company will overinvest in less productive campaigns, and underinvest in better ones
* In general, analytics integrations are manual, slow, and unreliable
* The current system completely misses "skips"-customers switching from the Unicorn app to consortium banks-an important source of revenue
* Documenting the value of Unicorn's Marketing processes is essential to the success of the planned IPO, and millions of dollars in stock valuation hangs in the balance.
CIO
The CIO is concerned primarily with:
* The amount of time his team spends patching up Marketing campaigns and CRM data transfers, at the expense of other, critical initiatives
* Quality and reliability of the Analytics information his team provides to Marketing MARKETING STAFF Marketing Operations staff concerns:
* Campaigns require so much work that they can't run as many of them as they need to
* Multi-touch cross-selling campaigns (for example, savings accounts to loans) with excellent margins, but no way to know which campaign touches perform best
* Getting swamped with manual record-keeping; for example, spreadsheet mistakes take hours to find and fix
* Poor integration with third-party tools for preparing, sending, and evaluating campaign materials, for Example.
o Webhook not firing,
o Reaching API limit
o Synchronization errors with third-party tools and Salesforce
* Inadequate number of lead stages and qualification levels, making it difficult to evaluate lead value, especially in multi-touch campaigns Despite the absence of an external Sales team, Marketing Operations would like to improve the granularity of their lead tracking, including both lifecycle stages and quality levels, with "no score" and negative levels.
Multiple Unicorn teams are manually placing Sources in multiple areas. A small set of IT members decides to use an API that triggers when the Source field is not one of a list of 9 values, or is empty. When this is the case, the API is called via webhook to confirm if there is information in the Comments, Status, or custom field
'Sales update1 and then replaces the Source with what is found in those fields, in the above order of importance.
These IT team members are ready to switch on the solution after testing successfully in a staging area, but request feedback from the Marketing team and the Adobe Marketo Engage solution architect.
The larger IT team and Marketing stakeholders are alerted to a wider review to determine if it matches the current needs across each team.
Which steps should be taken first?
- A. Recommend they build a new field to update this data into the CRM that can not be seen by Marketo Engage. This way, Marketing and IT can see the data in CRM without affecting any operations outside CRM.
- B. Perform an audit of Marketo engage automation and analyze the impact, outline any issues with the proposed changes, and make recommendations and next steps. Send this report to the rest of the stakeholders and IT team to make sure it aligns with their needs before agreeing to anything.
- C. Make sure the larger IT team switches on the solution in a low-activity timeframe, where as little automated and marketing work is happening. Once the updates are complete, monitor the change of data as it is switched on, to check for any unexpected effects in the Marketo Engage instance.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
Performing an audit of Marketo Engage automation and analyzing the impact, outlining any issues with the proposed changes, and making recommendations and next steps is the best step to take first. This way, the solution architect can ensure that the solution is aligned with the business requirements and best practices, and that it does not cause any negative consequences for the data quality, campaign performance, or reporting accuracy. Sending this report to the rest of the stakeholders and IT team would also allow for feedback and collaboration before implementing any changes. Making sure the larger IT team switches on the solution in a low-activity timeframe, where as little automated and marketing work is happening would not be a good step to take first, as it would risk disrupting the existing workflows and data integrity without proper testing and validation. Recommending they build a new field to update this data into the CRM that can not be seen by Marketo Engage would not be a good step to take first, as it would create data silos and prevent Marketo Engage from using the source information for segmentation, personalization, or attribution.
