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?

Unicorn and their Adobe Marketo Engage Architect want to update their current scoring for web-based behaviors. One area that is highlighted for changes are the forms. The goal is to avoid using one form score, and instead use 3 score values, depending on whether the form is low (+3); medium (+7), or high value (+15).
What is the most scalable way to build these changes?

Update the hidden Behavioral Score fields in each form to have the appropriate ‘My Token’ score for the value of the form Make sure this triggers a Score field update as well

Build Smart Campaigns that trigger based on the appropriate form into the Scoring Program Add the appropriate score values into the ‘Change Data Value’ flow step, then switch on

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?

Unicorn starts rebuilding out its Revenue Cycle Model (RCM) to move away from the generic Marketable model. The goal is a model that more accurately mtaches its customer journey. When building out the RCM, Unicorn finds that several of their “Skips” (customers who initially engage with Unicorn, but then “skip” to receive services directly from a consortium bank) seem to only appear at the Engaged phase due to scoring, before reappearing as a ‘Closed Won’ in their CRM.
As the CRM begins to sync back these Closed Won Opportunities, how should this journey be captured in the Revenue Cycle Model?

The “Skips” should have specific stages in the success path that are the equivalent of MQL, SAL, and Opportunity, but with “Skips” labelled.

Manage the “Skips” quickly by moving them through each stage of the Success Path from engaged to
‘Closed Won’ once identified

The “Skips” should have a detour arrow above the Success Path that moves them directly from
‘Engaged’ to ‘Closed Won’.

NO.29 An Adobe Marketo Engage Architect has just hired a new person to join their team. They have been tasked with building a new lifecycle model and you work together to develop a solution. The top half of the funnel stages (Known, Engaged, MQL) will be driven by Marketo Engage where as the bottom half of the funnel will be driven by specific data value changes in salesforce. Due to this quarter’s budget reasons, there were not enough funds to subscribe to Revenue Explorer or Bizible but it will be prioritized for the next fiscal year.
Which scalable approach should the Architect choose to ensure that the lifecycle model is tracking lead stage changes accurately?

Build trigger logic in a program.Create a field for revenue stage and a date field for each stage to track date of entry into that field.

Build trigger logic in a program. Build the triggers in the Revenue Cycle Model to listen for stage changes driven by the program.

Build trigger logic within the Revenue Cycle Model.

NO.30 An Architect notices that deliverability is slowly decreasing over time. After pulling a year of reports, the Administrator notices that the number of emails per month has increased from 3 to 10. The unsubscribe rates nearly double each quarter. Per the CMO, the amount of marketing activity must remain the same.
Which two actions can the Architectr take to make sure emails reach people in their database? (Choose two.)

Make marketing emails operational so people who have unsubscribed continue to receive ^ communications

Implement communication limits so people receive fewer emails

Work with the marketing team to decrease the number of email sends per month

Create a “marketable” smart list to include on every send that excludes multiple soft bounces

Decrease behavior scores when someone unsubscribes from an email

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 Fintech is using Salesforce and Adobe Marketo Engage. They want to change their lead sync and lead routing rules for new leads that are generated through Marketo Engage forms. The Marketing Operations Manager needs to help them build new automation. Leads must reach a minimum lead score of 50 prior to being synced for Inside Sales to follow up. Prior to syncing to Salesforce, they want to make sure that each lead has a minimum data set of lead source and country. The Inside Sales Managers in each region cannot agree on a single global process for which leads should be assigned to which Inside Sales reps once the leads are created in Salesforce. They want the flexibility to decide at the country level.
What is the most appropriate, scalable process for the Marketing Operations Manager to build?

Include country as a form field, use a hidden field to populate lead source, trigger the sync immediately, and assign to a country lead queue

Include country as a form field, use a hidden field to populate lead source, trigger the sync when the person reaches 50 points, and assign to a country lead queue

Use inferred data to populate the country field, use a hidden field to populate lead source, trigger the sync when the person reaches 50 points, and assign to an Inside Sales rep

Use inferred data to populate the country and lead source fields, trigger the sync immediately, and assign directly to the Inside Sales Managers in each region

NO.34 A large global company hires a media agency to run their paid social campaigns. They use a standardized UTM structure to track paid activities, which will allow them to differentiate paid efforts versus organic efforts. For example, UTM-source=paid social, UTM-medium=facebook, UTM-campaign:=B2B-social, UTM-content=Definitive-guide-to-paid-social. Cost will be added to the Adobe Marketo Engage programs on a monthly basis. The same assets will be used across campaigns and social platforms (Twitter, Facebook, Linkedln).
Which Marketo Engage program structure will allow the company to determine paid social effectiveness and ROI?

* A program in the Global Content channel will capture member success, and a program will be created for each asset regardless of the platform that drove the person to the asset
* UTMs will be used to place people in static lists to separate out the different platforms that drove the lead
* Cost will be added to each Global Content program

* A program in the Global Content channel will capture member success
* A program in the paid social channel will capture member success and one will be created for each asset and social media campaign
* Cost will be added to each paid social program and content program

* A program in the Global Content channel will capture membership but not success
* A program in the paid social channel will capture member success
* Each program in the social media channel will be created for each paid social campaign
* Cost will be added to paid social programs

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.

The social media team at Unicorn Fintech has been running paid search, paid social, and retargeting ads for the past year. Each of these is an Adobe Marketo Engage program channel and is set up to capture program member success and cost. The newly formed Account Based Marketing team (ABM) also wants to run paid social and retargeting ads but has their own budget. They want to report on their ABM efforts and ROI of their specific programs separate from the social media team. The social media team wants to be able to see how all campaigns are performing as well as easily separate the ABM efforts.
How should the Marketo Engage Architect set up the program structure to achieve these reporting goals?

Use the existing paid social and retargeting channels and add ABM to the program name

Create new ABM channels for paid social and retargeting

Use the existing paid social and retargeting channels and add a tag for ABM

NO.36 Refer to the lifecycle model above.

A company wants to increase the number of leads sent to Sales. The Sales and Marketing teams need to meet quarterly conversion rate goals. These teams use the out-of-box Adobe Marketo Engage success (only) modeler. The stages are defined as:
1. Anonymous: Leads for which web activity is tracked, but whose identity is not known yet
2. Known: Leads for which we have an email address or other information that allows us to market to them
3. Engaged: Leads that have engaged us by filling out a form, clicking a link in an email, or visiting our website at least 10 times within a week
4. Lead: Leads with scores greater than 25
5. Sales Lead: Leads with scores greater than 30
6. Opportunity: Leads that also have an opportunity attached to them
7. Won: Leads that are attached to opportunities that we have closed and Won In a meeting to discuss how to increase the amount of sales leads, someone suggests scoring leads who have clicked a link in an email with +35 points.
As the Adobe Marketo Engage Consultant, what are the effects of the lifecycle if this suggestion is implemented? (Choose two.)

Conversion from Lead -> Sales Lead would increase

Conversion from Opportunity -> Won would increase

Conversion from Known -> Engaged would decrease

Conversion from Sales Lead -> Opportunity would decrease

Conversion from Sales Lead -> Opportunity would increase

NO.37 A company wants to generate new leads through content syndication. The goal is not to pay for existing leads.
A third-party company will send leads through an API directly to the Adobe Marketo Engage instance.
The third-party company passes the following information through the API:
* First
* Last
* Email
* Person Source
* Company
* Asset Name
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?

Remove from Flow > Change Data Value > Add to Program > Change Score > Call Webhook

Change Data Value > Change Program Status > Call Webhook > Remove from Flow > Send Email

Remove from Flow > Call Webhook > Change Data Value > Change Program Status > Change Score

Change Program Status > Call Webhook > Change Data Value > Send Email > Remove from Flow

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.)

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

Remove access to users who are the ‘worst offenders’ until they have successfully passed the Marketo Certified Associate Exam

Align IT and Marketing Ops teams on what level of responsibility each team should have on data management in Marketo Engage

Buy lists from a third-party data provider that are GDPR compliant with no country values

Set up training sessions that covers List Import and Form best practices for both day-to-day users and Marketo Engage ‘Power Users’

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?

Push each record to a Program if they meet the right loan stage criteria

Store the data in custom fields on the person record

Create a Custom Object linked to the person record

Create a Custom Activity linked to the person record

NO.41 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.)

Create a folder structure to organize customer vs prospect campaigns

Create two workspaces: A prospect workspace and a customer workspace

Create a naming convention that tags customer vs prospect campaigns

Reduce the access for the demand generation manager and IT manager to a limited role that cannot create fields

Create two workspaces: An operational workspace and a marketing workspace

Increase the access for the marketing operations manager and CRM administrator to super admin so they can override the field creations from others

NO.42 An Adobe Marketo Engage Consultant is assigned to audit an existing Marketo Engage instance. This is a
10-year-old instance. Due to high turnover within the Marketing Operations team, the team does not have the MQL assignment process documented. Marketing Operations does not have access to Salesforce. The sales team reports that they receive only 10 MQLs in a week. The Marketing team shows on average 50 MQLs in a week. The Sales team members do not get any MQL alert from Marketo Engage. They see the lead assignment only when the leads are assigned to “Sales Queue” on Salesforce. The Marketo Engage sync on Salesforce is properly configured and has write access to all standard objects and fields. While auditing Marketo Engage instance, the consultant finds the following issues:
* An average 40 leads are getting graduated to MQLs but not syncing with Salesforce. These records are already in Salesforce’s lead object and belong to Hospitality Industry.
* The web-message field on the Marketo Engage form is not getting updated to Salesforce’s Lead and Contact objects. The Marketo Engage Sync user has read and write access to “Web-Message” field on Lead, Contact, and Account objects.
Which two steps should the consultant perform to find the root cause? (Choose two.)

Check if Marketo’s Custom Object is in place

Check if the Web-Message form field is mapped to Account object

Check if the Custom Activities are configured properly

Check if the Behavior Scoring is configured properly

Check if the Custom Sync Rule is in place

NO.43 A company buys a webinar solution that connects to its Adobe Marketo Engage instance via API. The Marketing VP wants to quickly scale the volume of webinars from once a month for North America to three times a month globally. All webinars will be in English.
