The option that accurately defines the capabilities of a segmentation rule is that segmentation rules are used to segment prospects based on their activities and demographic data. A segmentation rule is a type of rule that allows marketers to segment their prospects based on specific criteria, such as field values, activities, or scores. A segmentation rule can be used to create dynamic lists, add prospects to campaigns, or apply tags or completion actions. Segmentation rules are not used to create new forms, score and grade prospects, or assign prospects to users in Salesforce, as these are different functions that require different tools1. References: 1: Segmentation Rules

To review the deliverability statistics for an autoresponder email sent in response to a form submission in Pardot, the appropriate report to consult is the Autoresponder report. This report provides specific metrics on the performance of autoresponder emails, including delivery rates, open rates, click-through rates, and any bounces. Unlike generic form reports or list email reports, the Autoresponder report focuses on the emails triggered automatically after a form is completed, providing detailed insights relevant to these specific interactions.

The baseline grade assigned to a prospect is D. A Marketing Cloud Account Engagement grade is a rating based on how well a prospect’s profile matches your ideal customer profile. The prospect rating is expressed as a letter grade that ranges from F (worst) to A+ (best). Marketing Cloud Account Engagement assigns an initial grade of D to all prospects. You can then adjust the grade up or down based on the prospect’s attributes, such as industry, job title, company size, location, etc. The grade reflects how well the prospect fits your target market and how qualified they are for your product or service. You can create different grading profiles for different personas or segments, and assign prospects to profiles based on certain criteria. For more details —> 345

The GoToWebinar connector is a feature that allows you to integrate Marketing Cloud Account Engagement with GoToWebinar, a web conferencing platform. With this connector, you can:

• Register prospects for GoToWebinar events from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement forms, landing pages, or completion actions.
• Automatically pull in prospects who exist in GoToWebinar but not Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and create new prospect records for them.
• Display registrations and attendance as activities on the prospect’s record and use them as criteria for segmentation, automation, and reporting. References: [GoToWebinar Connector], [Set Up the GoToWebinar Connector]

Form handlers allow you to use your own forms to post your data to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. A form handler is a great alternative to use instead of Marketing Cloud Account Engagement forms. They allow you to fully customize the look of your form and submit data to more than one database. However, form handlers do not support progressive profiling, which is a feature that allows you to display new fields for known prospects and collect more information about them. To use progressive profiling, you need to create a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form and enable it in the form settings

An autoresponder is a type of email that is automatically sent to a prospect when they perform a specific action, such as filling out a form, downloading a file, or registering for an event. To send an autoresponder, a marketer must create an email template using the classic email builder in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. An email template is a reusable email design that can be customized with dynamic content and personalization. A test email, a one-to-one email, and a list email are not suitable for sending an autoresponder, as they are either not reusable, not automated, or not personalized. References: : Create an Autoresponder Email

 The Marketing Cloud Account Engagement prospect audit capabilities can list all the data that was obtained by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and how the data changes as the prospect interact with your emails, website, and CRM sync. This is true because the prospect audit table displays details about changes to the prospect record, such as field changes, list changes, assignments, form errors, email opens, link clicks, page views, CRM syncs and more.

 An engagement studio program is a tool that allows the Marketing Manager to create and automate a series of steps that guide prospects through a marketing journey. An engagement studio program consists of three types of elements: actions, triggers, and rules. An action is something that the program does to or for the prospect, such as sending an email, adding them to a list, or notifying a user. A trigger is something that the program checks for or waits for the prospect to do, such as opening an email, clicking a link, or submitting a form. A rule is something that the program evaluates about the prospect, such as their score, grade, or field value8

Among the possible actions that can be taken in an engagement studio program, three of them are:

• Add prospect to list. This action adds the prospect to a specified list in Account Engagement. This action is useful for segmenting prospects based on their engagement or moving them to a different list for further marketing8
• Send email to prospect. This action sends an email to the prospect using an Account Engagement email template. This action is useful for delivering relevant and personalized content to the prospect based on their stage in the journey8
• Notify a user. This action sends an email notification to a specified user or user group in Account Engagement or Salesforce. This action is useful for alerting the sales team or other stakeholders about the prospect’s engagement or readiness

The automation tool that would effectively achieve the goal of adding prospects to a list after they submit a form, but not retroactively applying actions to prospects that have already filled out the form, is a completion action. Completion actions are actions that are triggered when a prospect completes a specific activity, such as submitting a form, clicking a link, or opening an email. Completion actions are executed in real time and only affect the prospects who complete the activity after the action is set up. Segmentation rules, dynamic lists, and automation rules are not suitable for this goal, as they are either retroactive, recurring, or based on criteria other than a specific activity. References Completion Actions Overview

The Google Analytics connector allows Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to append UTM parameters to a prospect record. UTM parameters are tags that you can add to the end of a URL to track the source, medium, campaign, term, and content of your web traffic. By connecting Marketing Cloud Account Engagement with Google Analytics, you can automatically add UTM parameters to your Marketing Cloud Account Engagement tracked links and sync them with the prospect records. This allows you to see how your prospects are interacting with your online campaigns and measure their effectiveness

 According to the Salesforce documentation, in order to sync a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement prospect field with both a lead and a contact field in Salesforce, the lead and contact fields must have the same API name, and the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement field must be mapped to the Salesforce field. The API name is the unique identifier for the field that is used by the system to sync the data. The field mapping is the configuration that tells Marketing Cloud Account Engagement which Salesforce field to sync with. The Salesforce field label and the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement field type are not relevant for the field sync, as long as they are compatible. References: Salesforce documentation

According to the Salesforce documentation, the two form field options that should be enabled to make the “Comments” field visible and empty every time a prospect returns to one of the forms are: B) Always display even if previously completed, and C) Maintain the initial value upon subsequent form submissions. The Always display even if previously completed option ensures that the field is not hidden or pre-filled with the previous value when the prospect revisits the form. The Maintain the initial value upon subsequent form submissions option ensures that the field is not overwritten with the new value when the prospect submits the form again. These two options combined will make the field appear as visible and empty every time the prospect returns to the form. The Do not prefill option will prevent the field from being pre-filled with the prospect’s information from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement or Salesforce, but it will not prevent the field from being pre-filled with the previous value from the same form. The Display other fields in this form based on the value of this field option will create a dependent field that will show or hide other fields based on the value of the “Comments” field, but it will not affect the visibility or emptiness of the “Comments” field itself. References: Salesforce documentation

In Pardot, the best tool to use for assigning prospects to a group of users based on specific criteria is an automation rule with rule groups. Automation rules allow for the creation of complex criteria that prospects must meet to trigger certain actions. In this scenario, the rule would check for prospects with a score greater than 100, a grade greater than B, completion of any form on a landing page, and a “Product of Interest” field value of either A or B. Once a prospect meets these conditions, the automation rule can then assign them to the specified group of users. This method is efficient for processing large numbers of prospects automatically and continuously, which is not as feasible with completion actions on forms or landing pages, or with a one-time use segmentation rule.

You cannot set up Marketing Cloud Account Engagement yourself to sync with Person Accounts. You need to contact Marketing Cloud Account Engagement support to enable this functionality, as it is not available by default. Person Accounts are a special type of account in Salesforce that combines the attributes of both accounts and contacts. To sync Marketing Cloud Account Engagement with Person Accounts, you need to follow some additional steps, such as enabling Person Account Syncing, creating Person Accounts instead of Leads, and adding Marketing Cloud Account Engagement data to Person Account layouts12 References: 1: Person Account Syncing with Salesforce2: What To Know Before Using Person Accounts in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement & Salesforce

 Two methods that would accomplish providing access to an eBook once a form has been submitted are using a form completion action to send an autoresponder email with the eBook, and re-directing the prospect to the eBook instead of showing the form’s Thank You Content. A form completion action is a way of defining what happens after a prospect submits a form, such as sending an email, adding to a list, or adjusting a score. An autoresponder email is a type of email that is automatically sent to a prospect when they perform a specific action, such as submitting a form. A Thank You Content is a web page that is displayed after a prospect submits a form, such as a confirmation message or a link to a resource. Using a form completion action to initiate an auto-download of the eBook, or including a link to the eBook in the Below Form section of the form are not methods that would accomplish providing access to an eBook once a form has been submitted, as they either involve downloading the eBook before submitting the form, or displaying the link to the eBook before submitting the form4. References: 4: [Create a Form]

The best way to create a list that contains all prospects who complete the Contact Us form, but will later remove any prospects if they become marked as opted out, is to use a dynamic list. A dynamic list is a list that automatically adds or removes prospects based on criteria that you define. In this case, the criteria would be based on the form completion and the opt out status of the prospect. A dynamic list would also add prospects back to the list if they opt back in. The other options are not as efficient or effective as a dynamic list, as they would require manual intervention or additional automation steps

Mailable prospects are prospects who have opted in to receive email communication from you and have not bounced or unsubscribed. You can find the number of mailable prospects in your database by navigating to the prospect list and selecting “Mailable Prospects” from the dropdown menu. You can also filter the list by tags, campaigns, or custom fields to segment your mailable prospects. References: [Mailable Prospects], [Filter Prospects]

An A/B test list send email is a type of email send that allows marketers to test different versions of an email and measure their performance based on metrics such as opens, clicks, and conversions. The winning version is the one that has the highest percentage of the selected metric. If the winning version shows the percentage by which it out-performed the other version as 0%, it means that both versions had the same performance on the selected metric, and the A/B test was a tie2. References: 2: A/B Testing Your Email Sends

The difference between a dynamic list and a static list is that you cannot manually update list membership of a dynamic list but you can manually update list membership of a static list. A list is a collection of prospects that you can use to segment your audience, send emails, or perform other actions. A dynamic list is a list that automatically populates with prospects who match the criteria you set. A static list is a list that you manually populate with prospects or import from a file. A dynamic list is constantly updated, so prospects are added or removed from the list as they meet or no longer meet the criteria. A static list is not updated automatically, so you can add or remove prospects from the list as you wish. You cannot manually update list membership of a dynamic list, because the list is controlled by the criteria. You can manually update list membership of a static list, because the list is controlled by you

 The following activities would make a prospect active in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement:

• Submitting a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form, which indicates the prospect’s interest and consent to receive communications from the company.
• Clicking on a custom redirect, which tracks the prospect’s engagement with external links or downloadable content.
• Visiting a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement-tracked page, which captures the prospect’s browsing behavior and page views on the company’s website. References: [Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Prospect Activities]

The list email report metric that represents the total number of emails minus hard and soft bounces is total delivered. Total delivered measures how many emails were successfully delivered to the recipients’ inboxes, without being rejected by the email servers. Hard bounces are permanent delivery failures, such as invalid email addresses or blocked domains. Soft bounces are temporary delivery failures, such as full inboxes or server issues. Total opt outs, total sent, and total queued are not the same as total delivered. Total opt outs measures how many recipients unsubscribed from your emails. Total sent measures how many emails were sent from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. Total queued measures how many emails were waiting to be sent from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. References [Email Metrics Glossary]

 The best place to look on a prospect record to help determine the reason a prospect is unmailable is the Lifecycle and Profile section. This section shows the mailability status of the prospect, which can be one of the following: Mailable, Mailable - Transactional Emails Only, Undeliverable, Unmailable, or Unsubscribed4. The mailability status is determined by various factors, such as the prospect’s email opt-out preference, the do not email flag, the hard bounce or soft bounce detection, and the prospect’s location in the recycle bin5. The Lifecycle and Profile section also shows the email address, the email preference center, and the email opt-out date of the prospect, which can provide more information about the prospect’s mailability

 A user needs to be able to import and export lists. The user role that you should give them is Marketing. The Marketing user role has the permission to import and export prospects, as well as create and edit marketing assets, such as forms, landing pages, emails and campaigns. The other user roles, such as Sales Manager, Sales and None of the above, do not have the permission to import and export prospects. 

The key difference between an email template and an email content record in the enhanced email experience within Pardot lies in their usability across different Salesforce platforms. An email template, once created in Pardot, can be utilized by users across Pardot, Sales Cloud, and Service Cloud. This allows for a consistent messaging and branding experience across various customer-facing platforms within the Salesforce ecosystem. In contrast, an email content record in Pardot is specific to Pardot and designed for use within the platform's email marketing campaigns, focusing on specific layouts and elements tailored to Pardot's capabilities.

A lead qualification model based on implicit prospect interest and explicit information provided by prospects requires the feature of Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Score and Grade. The score is a numerical value that measures the implicit interest of a prospect based on their engagement with marketing activities, such as opening emails, clicking links, and visiting landing pages. The grade is a letter value that measures the explicit fit of a prospect based on the information they provide, such as industry, company size, and job title. By combining the score and grade, marketers can segment and prioritize their prospects more effectively3. References: 3: Scoring and Grading Prospects

Salesforce's Einstein Key Accounts Identification feature is designed to help sales managers and teams identify and focus on their most important accounts based on a variety of metrics, including historical data and engagement levels.

• Einstein Key Accounts Identification: This feature uses advanced machine learning algorithms to analyze past opportunity creation data and various engagement metrics to pinpoint which accounts are likely to be the most valuable or have the highest potential. This can help sales managers prioritize their efforts and resources more effectively. The insights generated by this tool are integrated directly into the Salesforce account records, providing easily accessible and actionable data for sales teams.

This contrasts with options like the Einstein Behavior Score, Pardot grade, and Pardot score, which, while useful for assessing individual lead or contact engagement and readiness, do not provide the holistic account-level insight that Einstein Key Accounts Identification does.

By default, Pardot integrates closely with Salesforce CRM to synchronize data primarily with two key standard objects: Lead and Contact records. This integration allows Pardot to write marketing data directly to these objects, enabling a seamless flow of information about prospects' activities and engagement. This capability is foundational for maintaining updated and relevant data within Salesforce, facilitating more targeted and effective sales and marketing efforts. Case, Account, and Opportunity records, while important within Salesforce, do not receive direct writes from Pardot by default, although they can be involved in more advanced, customized integrations.

 A prospect is automatically removed from future email sends when they either hard bounce or soft bounce five times. A hard bounce occurs when an email is permanently rejected by the recipient’s server, usually because the email address is invalid, non-existent, or blocked. A soft bounce occurs when an email is temporarily rejected by the recipient’s server, usually because the mailbox is full, the server is down, or the message is too large. A hard bounce indicates that the email address is no longer valid and should be removed from your list. A soft bounce indicates that the email address may still be valid, but there is a temporary issue that prevents the delivery. However, after five soft bounces, Marketing Cloud Account Engagement will mark the prospect as undeliverable and stop sending emails to them

According to the Salesforce documentation, the two Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form actions that would accomplish enabling bot protection on their forms are honeypot technique and reCaptcha. Bot protection is a feature that helps prevent automated bots from submitting forms and creating fake prospects. Honeypot technique is a method that uses a hidden field in the form that is not visible to human users, but can be detected by bots. If the hidden field is filled out, the form submission is rejected as a bot submission. reCaptcha is a service that uses a challenge-response test to verify that the form submitter is a human and not a bot. The user can enable either or both of these options in the form settings to add bot protection to their forms. Enabling HTTPS, or Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure, is a method that encrypts the communication between the user’s browser and the web server, but it does not prevent bots from submitting forms. Dependent fields are fields that are displayed or hidden based on the value of another field, but they do not prevent bots from submitting forms either. References: Salesforce documentation

Completion actions are actions that Marketing Cloud Account Engagement executes after a prospect successfully completes a desired activity, such as submitting a form or clicking a custom link. Completion actions only affect prospects, not visitors, because visitors are anonymous and have not been identified by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement yet

 You can send an automated email to a prospect after they fill out a form using either an automation rule or a completion action. An automation rule is a criteria-based action that is triggered when a prospect matches the rule. You can use an automation rule to send an email to prospects who fill out a specific form or any form. A completion action is a task that is performed after a prospect successfully completes a marketing element. You can use a completion action to send an email to prospects who fill out a particular form. You cannot use a segmentation rule to send an email, since segmentation rules are used to segment prospects into lists or update their field values. References: [Automation Rules], Completion Actions, [Segmentation Rules]

The three variable tags that can be used on layout templates for landing pages are %%description%%, %%title%%, and %%content%%. A layout template is a reusable HTML template that defines the structure and style of your landing pages. A variable tag is a placeholder that allows you to insert dynamic content into your layout template, such as the landing page title, description, or form. You can use variable tags to customize your layout template for different landing pages, without having to edit the HTML code every time. 

The event that would make the Salesforce connector become unverified is the connector user’s Salesforce password was changed. A Salesforce connector is a feature that allows you to connect your Marketing Cloud Account Engagement account with your Salesforce CRM system, and enable bi-directional data sync and alignment between sales and marketing. To verify the Salesforce connector, you need to have a connector user, which is a Salesforce user that Marketing Cloud Account Engagement uses to access your Salesforce data and perform actions on your behalf. The connector user needs to have the appropriate permissions and settings in Salesforce, such as the API Enabled and Modify All Data permissions, and the security token2. If the connector user’s Salesforce password was changed, the security token would also change, and Marketing Cloud Account Engagement would not be able to authenticate with Salesforce. This would cause the Salesforce connector to become unverified, and the data sync between Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and Salesforce would stop. To fix this, you need to update the connector user’s password and security token in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and re-verify the Salesforce connector

A good bounce rate is less than 10%. Bounce rate is the percentage of visitors who leave a website after viewing only one page. It indicates how frequently users visit your site without interacting or exploring further. A high bounce rate may indicate that your content is unsatisfactory or poorly optimized. A low bounce rate may indicate that your content is engaging or useful. However, bounce rate can also vary depending on the industry, page type, and traffic source. For example, a blog may have a higher bounce rate than an ecommerce site, because users may only read one article and then leave. Similarly, a landing page may have a lower bounce rate than a home page, because users may be more likely to click on a call-to-action. Therefore, it is important to compare your bounce rate with industry benchmarks, page types, and traffic sources. As a general rule, a good bounce rate is around 40% or lower, while a bounce rate of 60% or higher may be an indication that you need to evaluate your page content and make it more helpful and engaging for users.

According to the Salesforce documentation, the information that can be accessed on the Prospect List are: A) Prospect’s Name, D) Prospect’s Company, E) Prospect’s Grade, F) Prospect’s Score, and H) Date of prospect’s last activity. The Prospect List is a feature that allows users to view and manage a list of prospects in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. The Prospect List can be accessed from the Prospects tab in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and it can show different columns of information for each prospect, such as name, company, grade, score, or last activity. The user can customize the columns that are displayed on the Prospect List, and they can also sort, filter, search, or export the Prospect List. The Prospect List can also show other information for each prospect, such as email address, title, date of when the prospect converted from a visitor, or custom fields, but these are not the default columns that are displayed on the Prospect List, and they need to be added by the user in the column settings.

 According to the Salesforce documentation, the issue of none of the lead’s Marketing Cloud Account Engagement information (score/grade) transferring over when Jim, a sales manager, converted a lead to a contact in Salesforce can be addressed by making sure that the administrator has mapped the lead fields to the contact fields in Salesforce. A field mapping is a feature that allows users to sync the data between Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and Salesforce fields, such as name, email, score, or grade. A field mapping can be configured by the administrator in the connector settings, and it can be customized for different objects, such as leads, contacts, or accounts. When a lead is converted to a contact in Salesforce, the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement information (score/grade) should transfer over to the contact record, as long as the lead fields and the contact fields are mapped correctly in the connector settings. If the fields are not mapped correctly, the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement information (score/grade) will not transfer over, and the contact record will not reflect the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement data. Therefore, the administrator needs to make sure that the lead fields and the contact fields are mapped correctly in the connector settings, and that the sync between Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and Salesforce is working properly. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement only showing this information on the lead record, this information showing on the account record and not the contact, or the administrator needing to create lookup fields on the contact to see this from the lead are not the correct ways to address the issue of none of the lead’s Marketing Cloud Account Engagement information (score/grade) transferring over when Jim, a sales manager, converted a lead to a contact in Salesforce, as they are either inaccurate, irrelevant, or unnecessary options for the field mapping or the data sync.

When prospects register via a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form, they will still receive GoToWebinar’s reminder and registration emails. This is because Marketing Cloud Account Engagement integrates with GoToWebinar and automatically registers prospects for the webinar when they fill out the form. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement also syncs the attendance and other webinar data with the prospect records. However, Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not send the webinar emails, which are handled by GoToWebinar. 

You can use visitor filters to filter out your own IP address that is currently skewing your results. Visitor filters are rules that allow you to exclude certain IP addresses or ranges from your visitor data and reports. This can help you avoid counting your own visits or those of your employees, partners, or vendors as prospects and skewing your analytics. You can create visitor filters by entering the IP addresses or ranges that you want to exclude in the administration settings.

Answer A is incorrect because you cannot use an automation rule to filter out your own IP address. An automation rule is a criteria-based action that is triggered when a prospect matches the rule. You can use automation rules to perform various actions on prospects, such as sending emails, adjusting scores, changing campaigns, or adding tags, but not filtering them out. Answer B is incorrect because you cannot add rules to the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement tracking code to filter out your own IP address. The Marketing Cloud Account Engagement tracking code is a snippet of JavaScript code that you can add to your website pages to track visitor and prospect activity. You can customize the tracking code to enable or disable certain features, such as first-party cookies, campaign tracking, or opt-in preferences, but not visitor filters. Answer C is incorrect because you cannot use completion actions with a filter to filter out your own IP address. A completion action is a task that is performed after a prospect successfully completes a marketing element, such as a form, landing page, or custom redirect. You can use completion actions to perform various actions on prospects, such as sending emails, adjusting scores, changing campaigns, or adding tags, but not filtering them out.

 According to the Salesforce documentation, the information that the tooltip above each step on the engagement studio program report provides is high-level metrics only for prospects who have completed the step. An engagement studio program report is a report that shows the performance and results of an engagement program, such as the number of prospects, emails, and conversions. The tooltip above each step on the program report shows the number and percentage of prospects who have completed that step, as well as the number and percentage of prospects who have taken the positive, negative, or neutral path after that step. The tooltip does not show the metrics for prospects who are waiting to complete, who have left, or who have skipped each step, as these are shown in other sections of the report. References: Salesforce documentation

 If LenoxSoft wants to provide a list of their products on their “Contact Us” form and ask prospects to select only one product they are most interested in, they should leverage the dropdown field type. A dropdown field is a single-select field that allows the prospect to choose one option from a predefined list. A dropdown field can be used to capture information such as product interest, industry, or country. A dropdown field can also be used as a controlling field for dependent fields5. References: Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Form Field Types

The correct sequence of events is E C B A D. Visitors access your company website (E), a cookie is applied ©, a visitor submits a conversion form (B), the visitor is now a prospect (A), and the prospect’s activity history is available to view in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement (D)4. This is how Marketing Cloud Account Engagement tracks and captures visitor and prospect data and behavior

By default, if the information in Salesforce differs from the information in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, the information in Salesforce will override the information in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. This means that Salesforce is the master source of truth for most fields, and any changes made in Salesforce will overwrite the values in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. However, this behavior can be customized for each field in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, by choosing one of the following options: Use Marketing Cloud Account Engagement’s value, Use Salesforce’s value, or Use the most recently updated record. You can also prevent a field from syncing at all by choosing Do not sync. For more details —> 45

It is not possible to create a dynamic list of all prospects who have accessed a certain file in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. Dynamic lists are based on criteria that match prospect fields, not prospect activities. Therefore, you cannot use a dynamic list to segment prospects based on whether they have downloaded a file, watched a video, or visited a page. Option A is not correct because field value mapping has nothing to do with dynamic lists or file access. Option C is not correct because match type is irrelevant for this question, as there is no valid criterion for file access. Option D is not correct for the same reason as option C. References: Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Dynamic Lists for Faster Segmentation (+ 10 Examples), Create a Dynamic List - Salesforce

 When an engagement studio program is created with an Email Send action step immediately followed by an Email Open trigger step with a 3 day wait, it means that the program will wait for up to 3 days for the prospect to open the email. If the prospect opens the email within the 3 day period, they will immediately progress down the “Yes” path (A). The prospect will not wait for any additional time after opening the email (B), nor will they progress down the “No” path (C, D). References: Engagement Studio Overview

According to the Salesforce documentation, the user should resolve the issue of not being able to choose the specific email template when sending a new list email by editing the email template to make it available for “List Emails”. An email template is a reusable design that defines the content and layout of an email. An email template can be configured to be available for different types of email sends, such as one-to-one emails, list emails, or autoresponders. A list email is an email that is sent to a specific list of prospects, such as a newsletter or a promotion. To use an email template for a list email, the user must edit the email template and check the box for “List Emails” in the email template settings. This will make the email template available to choose when sending a new list email. Editing the list to be available for “Email Sending”, “Email Templates”, or editing the email template and choosing the appropriate list are not the correct ways to resolve the issue of not being able to choose the specific email template when sending a new list email, as they are either irrelevant or incorrect options for the list or the email template settings. References: Salesforce documentation

The administrator should go to Admin-Domain Management to check if the Email Sending Domains are set up properly after updating the DNS. Email Sending Domains are domains that you can use to send emails from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and they require verification and authentication to ensure that your emails are delivered and not marked as spam. To verify and authenticate your Email Sending Domains, you need to update the DNS records of your domain with the values provided by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. After updating the DNS, you can go to Admin-Domain Management and click the Verify Now button to check if your Email Sending Domains are verified and authenticated

A good default sales ready lead score is 100, as this indicates a high level of interest and engagement from the prospect. Lead scoring is a way of assigning a numerical value to each prospect based on their behavior and profile, such as visiting your website, opening your emails, filling out forms, etc. The higher the score, the more likely the prospect is to buy from you. A lead score of 100 means that the prospect has met all the criteria you have set for a sales ready lead, such as viewing a specific page, requesting a demo, or downloading a white paper. You can customize your lead scoring criteria and thresholds according to your business needs and goals. For more details —> 12

 If an engagement studio program is enabled to repeat, the prospects are eligible to repeat after one day and can repeat three times, and a prospect remains on the program recipient list, then the prospect will start the program over at the beginning after waiting one day (A). This is how repeating engagement programs work in Account Engagement. The prospect will not be prevented from restarting the program (B, D) unless they have reached the maximum number of repeats, which is three in this case. The prospect will also not restart the program immediately ©, but after the specified number of days, which is one in this case. References: Repeating Engagement Studio Flows Introduction

Click-through rate (CTR) is the percentage of recipients who click on a link in your email. CTR is an indicator of how engaging and relevant your email content is to your audience. CTR can vary depending on the industry, the type of email, the subject line, the call to action, and other factors. However, according to various sources, the average CTR for email marketing across all industries is around 2.6%. Therefore, a CTR of more than 2% can be considered as an ideal or good CTR for email marketing

According to the Salesforce documentation, the asset that should be applied during the creation of the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement landing page to accomplish the goal of using pre-existing HTML is a layout template. A layout template is a reusable design that defines the structure and style of a landing page. A layout template can be created using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and it can include editable regions where the user can add content and forms. A layout template can be applied to multiple landing pages, and it can be used to create custom landing pages with pre-existing HTML. Dynamic content, custom redirect, and stock template are not assets that can be applied during the creation of the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement landing page to accomplish the goal of using pre-existing HTML, as they are related to other aspects of landing page creation, such as personalization, tracking, and design.

 To understand how many different prospects registered for their most recent webinar, LenoxSoft should review the Unique Submissions metric on the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form report. This metric shows how many distinct prospects filled out the form, regardless of how many times they submitted it. Total Submissions shows the total number of form submissions, including duplicates. Conversions shows the percentage of form views that resulted in submissions. Total clicks shows the number of times the form was clicked, regardless of whether it was submitted or not

 The recommended way to accomplish sending out a new whitepaper to prospects and tracking who opens the PDF is to upload the whitepaper PDF as a content file and link to it in the body of the email. A content file is a type of file that can be uploaded and stored in the Content Builder, which is a tool that allows marketers to create and manage content assets. A content file can be linked to in the body of an email, which allows prospects to access the file by clicking the link. By linking to a content file, marketers can also track who opens the PDF, as the link will generate a tracking code that records the open activity. Uploading the whitepaper PDF as a content block, attaching it to the email, or embedding it in the email are not recommended ways to accomplish sending out a new whitepaper to prospects and tracking who opens the PDF, as they either do not allow linking, do not allow tracking, or do not display properly.

 When working on a list email, the Marketing Manager has three options that are not available when working on an Account Engagement email template. They are:

• Ability to send the email immediately. This option allows the Marketing Manager to send the list email to the selected recipients as soon as the email is ready, without scheduling it for a later date or time. This option is useful for urgent or time-sensitive messages6
• Ability to schedule the email. This option allows the Marketing Manager to choose a specific date and time to send the list email to the selected recipients. This option is useful for planning ahead or aligning with the best time to reach the audience6
• Recipient and suppression lists. This option allows the Marketing Manager to select which lists of prospects will receive the list email, and which lists of prospects will be excluded from receiving the list email. This option is useful for targeting and segmenting the audience based on their attributes or behaviors6

The engagement dashboard in B2B Marketing Analytics shows the total submissions across all Marketing Cloud Account Engagement landing pages, as well as other metrics such as views, conversion rate, cost per lead, etc. The engagement dashboard helps marketers measure the performance of their marketing campaigns and optimize their content strategy. The pipeline dashboard shows the revenue generated by marketing campaigns, the account-based marketing dashboard shows the engagement and influence of key accounts, and the multi-touch attribution dashboard shows the impact of marketing touchpoints on sales outcomes. References B2B Marketing Analytics Overview

The Salesforce field type that is unsupported for syncing with Marketing Cloud Account Engagement is Lookup. Lookup fields are fields that allow you to create a relationship between two objects in Salesforce, such as Account and Contact. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not support syncing Lookup fields, because they are not compatible with Marketing Cloud Account Engagement’s data model and could cause data inconsistencies or errors. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement supports syncing most other Salesforce field types, such as Text, Number, Picklist, and Formula. 

Default roles are included with Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and cannot be edited or deleted2. Custom roles can be edited and deleted, and can be created from scratch or from a default role2. Custom roles allow you to customize the access and permissions for different types of users in your organization2

In the enhanced landing page experience within Salesforce, one of the key features is the ability to associate a landing page with either a connected campaign (directly linked to Salesforce campaigns for unified reporting and management) or an unconnected campaign (used solely within Pardot). This flexibility allows marketers to tailor their campaign management strategies according to their specific needs, enhancing the integration and tracking of various marketing efforts directly from within Salesforce.

The insight that the Click-Through Rate report provides the template designer is that low click rates encourage the user to optimize content or link placement in other email sends. The Click-Through Rate report shows the percentage of email recipients who clicked on one or more links in the email. This metric indicates how engaging and relevant the email content and links are for the prospects. If the click rates are low, it means that the prospects are not interested in the email content or links, or they are not able to find them easily. The template designer can use this insight to improve the content or link placement in future email sends, such as by using more compelling calls to action, adding more value propositions, or making the links more visible and accessible. The other options are not insights that the Click-Through Rate report provides. Email clicks on the text version of the email are not tracked by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, so they do not affect the click rates. High click rates do not indicate that the email subject line should be the focus of the email content, as the subject line is more related to the open rates. High open rates do not indicate that prospects are interacting with the content, as they only measure how many prospects opened the email, not how they engaged with it. References [Email Metrics Glossary]

A prospect is a visitor who has submitted an email address through a form or landing page on your site. This is the primary way that Marketing Cloud Account Engagement identifies and converts visitors into prospects. A prospect can also be created from an email link click, a manually entered email address, or an import.

 According to the Salesforce documentation, the types of fields that are not supported by the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sync are: B) Formula fields, D) Geolocation fields, and E) Text Area (rich) fields. A Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sync is a feature that allows users to connect and exchange data between Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and Salesforce fields, such as name, email, score, or grade. A Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sync can be configured by the administrator in the connector settings, and it can be customized for different objects, fields, or actions. A Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sync can support different types of fields, such as text, number, date, checkbox, picklist, or lookup fields. However, a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sync cannot support some types of fields, such as formula, geolocation, or text area (rich) fields. A formula field is a field that calculates a value based on a formula or an expression. A geolocation field is a field that stores the latitude and longitude coordinates of a location. A text area (rich) field is a field that allows users to enter formatted text, images, or links. These types of fields are not supported by the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sync, as they are either incompatible, complex, or large for the data exchange. A record type field is a type of field that is supported by the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sync, as it is a field that defines different business processes, page layouts, or picklist values for different users. A number field is also a type of field that is supported by the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sync, as it is a field that stores numerical values. References: Salesforce documentation

 According to the Salesforce documentation, the default scoring model in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement assigns points to prospects based on their activities, such as clicking a link in an email, submitting a form, or visiting a landing page. These activities indicate the level of interest and engagement of the prospects, and help prioritize them for sales follow-up. Converting a lead to a contact or sending an email to the assigned user are not activities that automatically increase the prospect’s score, unless they are customized in the scoring rules.

 A form handler is a feature that allows you to use your own forms to post your data to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. A form handler is similar to a form, but instead of displaying the form on your website, you point your form to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. This allows you to submit data to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement as well as your own database3. Form handlers are useful when you want to keep the look and feel of your existing forms, or when you want to capture data from multiple forms using one form handler

According to the Salesforce documentation, the feature in Salesforce that can be enabled to show landing page engagement data on a Salesforce Campaign page layout is Engagement History. Engagement History is a feature that allows users to view and report on how prospects interact with Marketing Cloud Account Engagement marketing assets, such as emails, forms, landing pages, and custom redirects. Engagement History can be enabled for Salesforce Campaigns, Leads, Contacts, Accounts, and Opportunities, and it can display metrics such as views, clicks, submissions, and conversions. Advanced Dynamic Content, Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Activities Visualforce page, and B2B Marketing Analytics are not features that can show landing page engagement data on a Salesforce Campaign page layout, as they are related to other aspects of marketing automation, such as personalization, activity tracking, and analytics.

 A prospect’s score is a numerical value that indicates their level of interest in your products or services. You can change a prospect’s score in two ways: using completion actions or manually. Completion actions are tasks that are performed after a prospect successfully completes a marketing element, such as a form, landing page, or custom redirect. You can use completion actions to adjust a prospect’s score based on their behavior. Manually, you can edit a prospect’s score by entering a new value in the score field on their record. You cannot change a prospect’s score using segmentation rules or profiles. References: [Scoring], Completion Actions, [Edit Prospects]

 Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sets cookies on visitors’ browsers to track their activities. Cookies are small bits of text that a website leaves with the browser so the website can remember who the visitor is. Cookies are the most common method used to identify users online and provide a personalized browsing experience. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement uses cookies to track visitor behavior on the website, such as pages visited, forms submitted, or files downloaded. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement also uses cookies to associate visitors with prospects once they fill out a form or click on a tracked link in an email. Option A is not correct because UTM parameters are not set by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, but by the marketer who creates the URL with query strings that indicate the source, medium, campaign, and other information of the traffic. Option B is not correct because tracking pixels are not set by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, but by the email client that renders the email with a hidden image that sends a request to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement’s server and records the open event. Option D is not correct because Google Analytics tracking code is not set by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, but by the website owner who embeds the code on the website to collect and analyze web traffic data.

According to the Salesforce documentation, the answer is false. There are some restrictions on how you assign custom users abilities. A custom user is a user who has a custom role assigned to them in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. A custom role is a feature that allows users to create and assign custom permissions and access levels to other users in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. A custom role can be created and managed by the administrator in the Admin tab in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and it can be assigned to new or existing users. A custom role can be assigned to a user by using different methods, such as editing an existing default role, assigning new users during the import process, or adding a batch of existing users using table actions. However, there are some restrictions on how you assign custom users abilities, such as:

• You cannot assign a custom user the ability to create or edit other users, roles, or connectors. This ability is reserved for the administrator only, and it cannot be delegated to a custom user.
• You cannot assign a custom user the ability to access or edit the data or settings of another user, unless the custom user is the manager of that user. A manager is a user who is responsible for overseeing and managing other users, and who can view and edit their data or settings. A manager can be assigned to a user in the user record, and they can have a custom role or a default role.
• You cannot assign a custom user the ability to access or edit the data or settings of a prospect, unless the custom user is the owner or the assigned user of that prospect. An owner is a user who created the prospect in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and who can view and edit their data or settings. An assigned user is a user who is assigned to the prospect in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and who can view and edit their data or settings.

 According to the Salesforce documentation, spam complaints refer to the number of prospects who marked an email as spam in an email report. An email report is a report that shows the performance and results of an email send, such as opens, clicks, bounces, unsubscribes, and spam complaints. A spam complaint is recorded when a prospect clicks the spam or junk button in their email client, indicating that they do not want to receive emails from the sender. Spam complaints can negatively affect the sender’s reputation and deliverability, so it is important to monitor and minimize them. Spam complaints do not refer to the number of prospects who clicked the unsubscribe link, replied to the email to ask to be removed, or opted out via the email preference center, as these are different ways of unsubscribing from emails, not marking them as spam.

 Lead qualification is the process of identifying and organizing potential customers best-suited for your products or services and who will most likely make a purchase. Lead qualification involves two main steps: determining when a prospect is ready for follow up from your sales team and determining when a prospect is ready for follow up from your marketing team. The first step is to assess the prospect’s level of interest, need, budget, and authority to buy your product or service. This can be done using various lead qualification frameworks and criteria, such as BANT, CHAMP, or MEDDIC. The second step is to nurture the prospect with relevant and personalized content until they are ready to buy. This can be done using various lead nurturing strategies and tools, such as email marketing, content marketing, or marketing automation

When an automation rule is deleted, it means that the rule is no longer active and will not run on any prospects. Therefore, prospects will no longer be able to match the rule (A). The rule will also be sent to the recycle bin in paused mode, where it can be restored or permanently deleted (B). However, deleting an automation rule does not undo the actions that have already been applied to the prospects who matched the rule before ©. Nor does it delete any prospects who matched the rule (D). References: Using Account Engagement Automation Rules vs. Salesforce Flows

According to the [Salesforce documentation], the recommended Marketing Cloud Account Engagement asset to use for progressive profiling is a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form. A Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form is a web form that can be used to collect information from prospects and store it in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. A Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form can be configured to use progressive profiling, which is a feature that allows the form to display different fields based on the information that is already known about the prospect. This way, the form can collect more information over time, without asking the same questions repeatedly or overwhelming the prospect with too many fields at once. A Marketing Cloud Account Engagement landing page without a form, a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form handler, or a third party form are not recommended for progressive profiling, as they do not have the same functionality and flexibility as a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form.

Marketing Cloud Account Engagement forms are the best option if you need data de-duplication in the CRM, such as Salesforce. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement forms can automatically match and update existing records in the CRM based on the email address or other unique identifiers4. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement forms can also create new records in the CRM if the prospect does not exist yet4. Form handlers, on the other hand, do not have this functionality, and may create duplicate records in the CRM if the prospect already exists

The custom email links generated by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement are tracked for link clicks, page visits and email opens. Link clicks are recorded when a prospect clicks on a link in an email. Page visits are recorded when a prospect visits a page on your website that has the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement tracking code. Email opens are recorded when a prospect opens an email and downloads the invisible image that Marketing Cloud Account Engagement inserts in the email. Form completions and unsubscribes are not tracked by the custom email links, but by other methods. 

When a marketing user pauses an Engagement Studio program and adds a new recipient list, the newly added prospects will skip any Action steps the existing prospects have already completed, but will be evaluated on Trigger and Rule steps when the program is resumed. This is because Action steps are time-based and cannot be retroactively applied, while Trigger and Rule steps are condition-based and can be applied at any point in the program1.

A form handler setting that allows prospects to receive multiple autoresponders from form submissions within a 24-hour period is Disable Visitor Activity Throttling and send autoresponder emails after every submission. This setting overrides the default behavior of Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, which is to throttle visitor activity and send only one autoresponder email per prospect per form per day2. This setting can be useful for forms that are used for multiple purposes, such as event registration, content download, or contact request

When tracking access to files hosted outside of Pardot, the best feature to use is a Custom redirect. This tool allows Pardot users to create trackable URLs which can then be used to direct prospects to external files. The interactions with these URLs are tracked, capturing data whenever a prospect accesses the link. This enables marketers to gather analytics on file access even when the content itself is not hosted within Pardot, providing valuable insights into prospect engagement with external resources.

The score is a numerical value that indicates how interested a prospect is in your products or services based on their activities, such as email opens, clicks, form submissions, etc. The score helps marketers prioritize leads and identify prospects who are ready to buy. Lenoxsoft is interested in following up with IT professionals who are actively engaging with their marketing materials, so the score is the best indicator of their interest level. The grade is a letter value that indicates how well a prospect matches your ideal customer profile based on their attributes, such as industry, job title, location, etc. The grade helps marketers segment leads and target prospects who are a good fit for your business. The profile reflects Lenoxsoft’s ideal customer, but it does not show how engaged the prospect is. The campaign is the first touch point that brought the prospect to your website, such as a Google ad, an email, or a social media post. The campaign helps marketers track the source and effectiveness of their marketing channels, but it does not show how engaged the prospect is. References [Scoring and Grading Overview]

For a Pardot form used on a computer tablet in a setting like a conference, the Kiosk/Data Entry Mode is an ideal feature to enable. This mode is specifically designed for public or shared use scenarios, where multiple individuals will be filling out the form in succession. When this mode is enabled, the form automatically resets after each submission, clearing all previously entered data and preparing the form for the next user. This ensures that each participant sees a fresh form, preventing the accidental sharing of personal information between users and facilitating a smooth data entry process in high-traffic environments.

The way that a marketer can avoid emailing prospects more than once in a ten day span is to use a dynamic list to create a frequency suppression list. A dynamic list is a type of list that automatically updates based on specific criteria, such as field values, activities, or scores. A frequency suppression list is a type of list that excludes prospects who have been emailed within a certain time frame, such as ten days. By using a dynamic list with a frequency suppression criteria, a marketer can ensure that they do not email prospects who have already received an email recently. Using an automation rule, a global account setting, or a segmentation rule are not ways that a marketer can avoid emailing prospects more than once in a ten day span, as they either do not create lists, do not update automatically, or do not run continuously2.

 To view a prospect’s Marketing Cloud Account Engagement landing page submission activity on the syncing contact in Salesforce, an Administrator can use the following features:

• The Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Activities Visualforce page, which shows a detailed history of the prospect’s interactions with Marketing Cloud Account Engagement assets, including landing pages, forms, emails, and custom redirects.
• The Salesforce Activities section, which shows the tasks and events that are logged for the contact, including Marketing Cloud Account Engagement landing page submissions. References: [Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Activities Visualforce Page], [Salesforce Activities]

 You can define a user’s role in two ways: during the import process or directly from the user record. During the import process, you can assign a role to multiple users at once by using a CSV file. Directly from the user record, you can edit the role of a single user by selecting it from the dropdown menu. You cannot define a user’s role from the list view or through an automation rule. References: Create and Edit Users, Import Users

 Drip programs are automated email campaigns that send a series of messages to prospects based on predefined criteria and triggers. You can pause and resume drip programs at any time. However, when you resume a drip program, it does not start immediately. It takes up to one hour for the drip program to resume sending emails to the prospects in the program. It does not take 5 minutes, one business day, or immediately for the drip program to start after unpausing it. References: Drip Programs, Pause and Resume Drip Programs

The way the marketer can satisfy the request to permanently delete a prospect from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement is by archiving the prospect and then selecting “Permanently Delete” from the recycle bin. Archiving a prospect removes them from the active prospect database and places them in the recycle bin, where they can be restored or permanently deleted. Permanently deleting a prospect removes them from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and Salesforce completely and cannot be undone. The marketer cannot archive the prospect without permanently deleting their data, as the archived prospects still count towards the database limit and can be restored. The marketer cannot delete the prospect in Salesforce, as this will only archive the prospect in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, not permanently delete them. The marketer cannot go to the prospect record and choose the “Permanently Delete” menu option, as this option is not available on the prospect record, only on the recycle bin. References Deleting Prospects
