Marketing-Cloud-Account-Engagement-Specialist Questions and Answers

 The automation tool that should be used to increase a prospect’s score an additional five points every time a specific form is completed is completion action. A completion action is an automated task that is triggered by a certain element in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, such as a form, a form handler, a custom redirect, a page action, or a file download17. A completion action can perform various actions, such as adjusting score, adding to list, assigning to user, sending autoresponder email, and so on18. A completion action can be added to a form in the fourth step of the form builder tool, and it can be customized to execute only on prospects who meet specific criteria19. A completion action is not retroactive and will only apply to prospects who complete the chosen action moving forward

Opportunities in Salesforce must be tied to a contact syncing with Marketing Cloud Account Engagement for them to be created in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. This means that the opportunity must have at least one contact role in Salesforce, and that contact must be syncing with a prospect in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. If the opportunity does not have any contact roles, or the contact is not syncing with Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, the opportunity will not be created in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. This is because Marketing Cloud Account Engagement needs a prospect to associate the opportunity with, and the contact role is the link between the opportunity and the prospect.

 For a Salesforce Opportunity to sync to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, the Opportunity must have a Contact Role that is syncing to a prospect in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. A Contact Role is a way of associating a Contact with an Opportunity, and specifying their role and level of influence in the sales process. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement uses the Contact Role to link the Opportunity to the corresponding prospect, and track their engagement and influence on the Opportunity4. References: 4: Opportunity Contact Roles

Form handlers are also the best option if you need to maintain your current lead flow, such as using your own CRM or lead management system. Form handlers allow you to keep your existing forms and processes, while still capturing the prospect data in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement1. You can also use form handlers to avoid changing the look and feel of your forms, or to comply with any regulations or policies that require you to use your own forms

Rule step types in engagement studio programs are used to check the prospect criteria, such as field values, list membership, tags, grades, scores, etc. Rule steps can branch the program based on whether the prospect meets the criteria or not. For example, a rule step can check if the prospect has a certain job title or industry and send them different emails accordingly. Prospect interest, behavior, and activity are not rule step types, but they can be used as criteria for rule steps. References Engagement Studio: Rule Steps

Completion actions are not retroactive and will only apply to prospects who complete the chosen action moving forward. Completion actions will fire each and every time a prospect takes the chosen action, except for when changing the prospect’s Marketing Cloud Account Engagement score

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

 Emails are electronic messages that you can send to prospects and customers to communicate with them and engage them with your marketing content. You can create and send emails using Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. However, some emails may get stuck in spam, which means that they are filtered out by the recipient’s email provider or client and marked as unsolicited or unwanted messages. To avoid this, you can create a text version of the email, which is a plain text alternative to the HTML version of the email. A text version of the email helps with email deliverability and accessibility, as some email clients or devices may not support HTML or images. Creating clear calls-to-action, mobile-friendly versions, or domain keys and SPF may also help with email deliverability, but they are not as essential as creating a text version of the email. Removing the unsubscribe link from the email is not a good practice, as it may violate the email regulations and preferences of the recipients. References: Emails, [Create a Text Version of an Email]

According to the Salesforce documentation, the option that is not a way to assign a custom role to a user is: D) Add a user to a Custom Role directly from their User Record. 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:

• Edit an existing Default Role, and it will automatically convert to a Custom Role: A default role is a predefined role that comes with Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and that has a fixed set of permissions and access levels. A default role can be edited by the administrator in the Admin tab in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and it will automatically convert to a custom role when the changes are saved. The administrator can then assign the custom role to a user or a group of users.
• Assign new users to a previously created Custom Roles during the import process: A new user is a user that is not yet added to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and that needs to be created and assigned a role. A new user can be imported by the administrator in the Admin tab in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and they can be assigned to a previously created custom role during the import process. The administrator can use a CSV file to import multiple new users at once, and to assign them to different custom roles.
• Add a batch of existing users to a Custom Role using table actions: An existing user is a user that is already added to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and that has a role assigned to them. An existing user can be added to a custom role by the administrator in the Admin tab in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and they can use the table actions to add a batch of existing users to a custom role at once. The administrator can select multiple existing users from the User List, and then click on the Change Role option in the table actions. The administrator can then choose the custom role that they want to assign to the selected users.

The option that is not a way to assign a custom role to a user is: Add a user to a Custom Role directly from their User Record. A user record is a feature that shows the detailed information and settings of a user in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. A user record can be accessed from the Admin tab in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and it can show different sections of information for the user, such as details, permissions, or activity. The user record can also show the role that is assigned to the user, but it cannot be used to add a user to a custom role directly. The user record can only be used to edit the user’s information, such as name, email, password, or timezone, but not the user’s role. To add a user to a custom role, the administrator needs to use one of the methods mentioned above, such as editing an existing default role, assigning new users during the import process, or adding a batch of existing users using table actions.

The HML merge field that should be included in an email to allow prospects to manage their email preferences is {{OptOut}} or {{EmailPreferenceCenter}}. The {{OptOut}} merge field inserts a link that allows prospects to opt out of receiving emails from the sender. The {{EmailPreferenceCenter}} merge field inserts a link that allows prospects to choose which types of emails they want to receive from the sender. The {{Unsubscribe}} merge field is not valid in HML, as it is only used in PML. The {{ReportSpam}} merge field is not recommended, as it can negatively affect the sender’s reputation. The {{Opt_Out}} merge field is not valid in HML, as it uses an underscore instead of a camel case1. References: 1: HML Merge Fields

The information that is required when creating a prospect manually is campaign, email, profile, and score. A prospect is a potential customer who has expressed some interest in your products or services, and whose information you have captured in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. You can create a prospect manually in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement by entering their information in a form, or by importing them from a file. When creating a prospect manually, you need to provide the following information:

• Campaign: The marketing initiative that you use to track the first touch point with the prospect, such as a trade show, a webinar, or a Google Ad. You can select a campaign from the drop-down menu, or use the default campaign that you set in your account settings.
• Email: The email address of the prospect, which is used as the unique identifier for the prospect record. You need to enter a valid email address for the prospect, or the prospect will not be created.
• Profile: The category that you use to segment your prospects based on their characteristics, such as industry, role, or product interest. You can select a profile from the drop-down menu, or use the default profile that you set in your account settings.
• Score: The numerical value that indicates the level of interest or engagement of the prospect in your products or services. You can enter a score for the prospect, or use the default score of 0 that is assigned to new prospects.

Other information that you can provide when creating a prospect manually are:

• First Name: The first name of the prospect, which can be used for personalization or segmentation.
• Last Name: The last name of the prospect, which can be used for personalization or segmentation.
• Company: The name of the company that the prospect works for, which can be used for reporting or segmentation.
• Website: The URL of the website that the prospect visits or owns, which can be used for tracking or segmentation.
• Assign To: The user that you want to assign the prospect to, who will be responsible for following up with the prospect. You can select a user from the drop-down menu, or use the default user that you set in your account settings.

Express Export is a feature that allows you to export a list of prospects with only the default fields, such as email, name, company, score, and grade. This option is faster and simpler than the full export, which includes all the custom fields as well. You can use the Express Export option by selecting a list of prospects and clicking on the “Tools” button, then choosing “Express Export”. References: [Export Prospects], [Express Export]

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 reason why the email link www.lenoxsoft.com was not re-written for tracking is that the link should start with http or https to be automatically re-written. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement automatically re-writes links in emails to track the clicks and measure the engagement of the recipients. However, Marketing Cloud Account Engagement only re-writes links that start with http or https, as these are the protocols that indicate a web address. The link www.lenoxsoft.com does not have a protocol, so Ma rketing Cloud Account Engagement does not recognize it as a web address and does not re-write it for tracking. The other options are not relevant for link re-writing. The link does not need to contain a wildcard, point to go.Marketing Cloud Account Engagement.com, or be populated with variable tags to be automatically re-written. These are features that can be used to create dynamic or custom links, but they are not required for link re-writing. References [Link Click Tracking]

 Automation rules and segmentation rules are both types of Marketing Cloud Account Engagement automation that allow you to perform actions based on criteria. However, the main difference between them is that automation rules run continuously and segmentation rules run once. Automation rules are always on and listening for changes or activity, and they can apply actions to prospects that match the criteria now or in the future. Segmentation rules are designed to pull a one-time list of prospects, then apply the set actions, such as adding them to a list or a Salesforce campaign. Once run, segmentation rules have to be copied to run again

 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]

 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]

 Marketing Cloud Account Engagement forms are the best option if you want to use progressive profiling to personalize your form. Progressive profiling is a feature that allows you to display different fields on your form based on what you already know about the prospect. This way, you can avoid asking the same questions repeatedly, and instead collect more relevant and valuable information over time. Form handlers do not support progressive profiling, and will always show the same fields on your form

 Form handlers are the best option if you want to integrate with a third-party system, such as a payment gateway, a survey tool, or a webinar platform. Form handlers allow you to post data to more than one location, so you can send the prospect information to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and to the external system at the same time1. You can also use form handlers to connect Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to your existing forms on your website or other platforms

 Marketing Cloud Account Engagement uses a tracking pixel to track HTML email opens. A tracking pixel is a small image that is embedded in an HTML email, and it loads when the recipient opens the email and downloads the images. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement uses the tracking pixel to record the email open activity and associate it with the prospect record. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not use a tracking link to track HTML email opens, because a tracking link is a link that is modified by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to track the click activity and redirect the recipient to the original URL. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not track email opens only if a link is clicked, because email opens and link clicks are different activities that are tracked separately. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not use a tracking pixel to track text email opens, because text emails do not support images or HTML. 

 A repeating automation rule is a type of automation rule that allows prospects to match the rule more than once, as long as they meet the criteria again. When creating a repeating automation rule, two considerations must be made: setting how many days must pass before a prospect can match the repeating automation rule again ©, and setting the number of times a prospect can match the repeating automation rule in total (D). These settings help prevent prospects from being over-marketed or receiving duplicate actions. Setting how many prospects are allowed to match the repeating automation rule (A) or setting a date for when prospects can no longer match the repeating automation rule (B) are not available options for repeating automation rules. References: Using Account Engagement Automation Rules vs. Salesforce Flows

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 variable tag that must be included in an email to allow prospects to manage their email preferences is %%unsubscribe%% or %%email_preference_center%%. A variable tag is a placeholder that is replaced with a specific value when the email is sent. The %%unsubscribe%% variable tag is replaced with a link that allows the prospect to unsubscribe from all emails from the sender. The %%email_preference_center%% variable tag is replaced with a link that allows the prospect to opt in or out of specific email lists or categories. Either of these variable tags can be used to enable prospects to manage their email preferences, and they are required by law in some countries. %%opt_out%% or %%email_preference_center%%, %%opt_out%% report_spam%%, and %%unsubscribe%% or %%opt_out%% are not valid variable tags that can be used to allow prospects to manage their email preferences, as they are either incorrect or nonexistent. References: Salesforce documentation

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

In order to have both a Lead and a Contact field sync with the same Marketing Cloud Account Engagement prospect field, two requirements must be met. They are:

• The Lead and Contact fields must have the same API name. The API name is the unique identifier of a field in Salesforce, and it must match exactly between the Lead and Contact objects. For example, if the Lead field has an API name of Lead_Source__c, the Contact field must also have the same API name4
• The Marketing Cloud Account Engagement field must be mapped to the Salesforce field. The mapping is the connection between the fields in Account Engagement and Salesforce, and it allows the data to sync between the two systems. The mapping can be done manually or automatically, depending on the field type and the connector version

The best way to run an A/B test in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement is to set up an A/B test that automatically sends the two versions to a single list and then determines a winner based on clicks or opens. This way, you can compare the performance of the two versions on the same audience and avoid any bias or timing issues that might affect the results. Option A is not a good way to run an A/B test because sending the same list two different emails at different times might skew the results due to factors such as email fatigue, inbox clutter, or changing preferences. Option B is not a good way to run an A/B test because event signups might not be the best metric to measure the effectiveness of an email, especially if the event is not directly related to the email content or offer. Option C is not a good way to run an A/B test because sending the two versions to two different lists might introduce variability in the results due to differences in the list composition, quality, or behavior. References: How to Run an A/B Test in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement: A Step by Step Guide (2022), The Basics of A/B Testing in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement - The Spot

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. 

A reCAPTCHA is displayed when you did not choose to display it because Marketing Cloud Account Engagement pings a database of known spammers and when a match is found automatically displays a reCAPTCHA. This is a security measure that helps prevent spam bots from submitting your forms and creating fake prospects. You can also choose to always display a reCAPTCHA on your forms or form handlers, or to never display a reCAPTCHA on your forms.

 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

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.

In Pardot (Salesforce Marketing Cloud Account Engagement), when setting up form fields, there is an option specifically designed to maintain the initial value of a field that a prospect enters, even if they submit different values in the same field on subsequent forms. This is critical for maintaining consistent data when the first submitted value is of primary importance, such as capturing the original source of a lead. This setting ensures that the field value doesn't update with each new submission, thus preserving the original data.

An automation rule is a criteria-based action that is triggered when a prospect matches the rule. By default, an automation rule will only affect a prospect one time, unless you enable the Repeat Rule option. If you enable the Repeat Rule option, the automation rule can match a prospect more than once, as long as they meet the criteria each time. Automation rules do not run every time, since they are evaluated based on a schedule that you can set. References: [Automation Rules], [Repeat Automation Rules]

 The feature that the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement administrator should use to gather a prospect’s company name and job title, but only once they have captured the prospect’s first name, last name, and email address in a previous form submission, is progressive profiling. Progressive profiling is a feature that allows the administrator to display different fields on a form based on the information that the prospect has already provided. This way, the administrator can avoid asking the same questions repeatedly and collect more information gradually. Progressive profiling can be enabled on a form by selecting the option “Always display even if previously completed” for the fields that are required, such as first name, last name, and email address, and selecting the option “Only display if progressive profiling is enabled and the field is blank” for the fields that are optional, such as company name and job title. This way, the form will only show the optional fields once the required fields are filled out. Always display even if previously completed, reCaptcha, and dependent fields are not features that can achieve the same goal as progressive profiling. Always display even if previously completed is an option that can be used to enable progressive profiling, but it is not a feature by itself. reCaptcha is a feature that can be used to prevent spam submissions on a form, but it does not affect the fields that are displayed on the form. Dependent fields are fields that are displayed or hidden based on the value of another field, but they do not depend on whether the prospect has already provided the information or not. References Progressive Profiling

The two Facebook accounts that can be posted to using the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Facebook connector are Company Pages and Personal Pages. The Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Facebook connector allows you to connect your Marketing Cloud Account Engagement account with your Facebook account, and create and schedule social posts from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. You can post to any Facebook page that you have admin access to, such as your company page or your personal page. You cannot post to other types of Facebook accounts, such as Video Pages or Linked Instagram Pages, using the Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Facebook connector. 

These are the default user roles that are included with Marketing Cloud Account Engagement1. They have different levels of access and permissions to perform various tasks in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. You can also create custom roles from a default role or from scratch.

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. References: Salesforce documentation

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

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]

Form reports show the performance and activity of your Marketing Cloud Account Engagement forms, which are web forms that capture prospect information. You can use form reports to see how many prospects have viewed, completed, or started but not completed your forms, as well as the conversion rate and average time to complete. You can also drill down into individual form submissions and view the prospect’s details and activities. References: [Form Reports], [View Form Reports]

According to the Salesforce documentation, the answer is true. Administrators can reset passwords for users. An administrator is a user who has the highest level of permissions and access in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and who can create and manage other users, roles, and settings. An administrator can reset passwords for users in the Admin tab in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and they can use different methods, such as:

• Reset password for a single user: An administrator can reset the password for a single user by accessing the user record in the User List, and clicking on the Reset Password button. The administrator can then enter a new password for the user, or generate a random password. The administrator can also choose to send an email notification to the user with the new password.
• Reset password for multiple users: An administrator can reset the password for multiple users by selecting the users from the User List, and clicking on the Reset Password option in the table actions. The administrator can then enter a new password for the users, or generate a random password. The administrator can also choose to send an email notification to the users with the new password.

The two actions that can cause an anonymous visitor to convert into an identified prospect are submitting a form on a landing page and clicking on a tracked link in an email. An anonymous visitor is a person who visits your website or interacts with your marketing assets, but whose information you have not captured in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. An identified prospect is a person whose information you have captured in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and whose activities you can track and measure. You can convert an anonymous visitor into an identified prospect by capturing their email address, which is used as the unique identifier for the prospect record. You can capture the email address of an anonymous visitor by:

• Submitting a form on a landing page. A form is a web element that allows you to collect information from your visitors, such as their name, email, or company. A landing page is a web page that you create and host in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to showcase your products or services, offer content, or register for events. You can add a form to a landing page to capture leads or convert visitors into prospects. When an anonymous visitor submits a form on a landing page, Marketing Cloud Account Engagement will create a new prospect record with the information provided by the visitor, and associate the previous activities of the visitor with the prospect record4.
• Clicking on a tracked link in an email. A tracked link is a link that is modified by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to track the click activity and redirect the visitor to the original URL. You can use tracked links in your emails, social media posts, or banner ads to measure the engagement of your visitors with your online marketing content. When an anonymous visitor clicks on a tracked link in an email, Marketing Cloud Account Engagement will append the email address of the visitor to the URL, and use it to create a new prospect record or update an existing one. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement will also associate the previous activities of the visitor with the prospect record.

 Marketing Cloud Account Engagement offers three webinar connectors: Adobe Connect, ReadyTalk, and GoToWebinar. These connectors allow you to integrate Marketing Cloud Account Engagement with these web conferencing platforms and register prospects for webinar events from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement forms, landing pages, or completion actions. You can also sync webinar data, such as registrations and attendance, between Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and these platforms and use them for segmentation, automation, and reporting. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not offer webinar connectors for WebEx or AnyMeeting.

Answer A and E are incorrect because Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not offer webinar connectors for WebEx or AnyMeeting, as explained above. References: [Webinar Connectors], [Set Up Webinar Connectors]

According to the Salesforce documentation, the two prospect activities that trigger a sync from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to Salesforce are: A) Submitting a form, and B) Opening an email. A form submission is an activity that occurs when a prospect fills out and submits a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form or a form handler. An email open is an activity that occurs when a prospect opens an email sent from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. These two activities will trigger a sync from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to Salesforce, meaning that the prospect’s information and activity data will be updated in Salesforce. A sync from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to Salesforce happens when a prospect is created or updated in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, or when a prospect performs a significant activity in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. Clicking a custom redirect or unsubscribing from email are not activities that trigger a sync from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to Salesforce, as they are not considered significant activities in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. A custom redirect is a trackable URL that can be used to measure and report on the clicks of any online content. An unsubscribe is an action that occurs when a prospect opts out of receiving emails from the sender. These two activities will not trigger a sync from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to Salesforce, unless they are combined with other activities that do trigger a sync, such as submitting a form or opening an email.

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.

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.

 According to the Salesforce documentation, the explanation for why the completion actions did not occur when the client submitted their Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form to test the form’s completion actions is: A) The client has a visitor filter set up to filter activities from their IP address. Completion actions do not occur on filtered visitors. A visitor filter is a feature that allows users to exclude certain visitors from being tracked and reported in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. A visitor filter can be based on IP address, location, or domain. A visitor filter can help users to avoid tracking their own activities or those of their competitors. A completion action is an automation tool that can be used to perform an action after a prospect successfully completes a marketing element, such as submitting a form, clicking a link, or visiting a web page. A completion action can be used to perform actions such as adding a prospect to a list, assigning a prospect to a user, sending an autoresponder email, or adjusting a prospect’s score. However, completion actions do not occur on filtered visitors, as they are not tracked or reported in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. Therefore, if the client has a visitor filter set up to filter activities from their IP address, the completion actions will not occur when they submit the form. The ‘email’ form field being set up to exclude free email addresses, the client not un-pausing the completion actions, or kiosk mode being enabled on the form are not the explanations for why the completion actions did not occur when the client submitted their Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form to test the form’s completion actions, as they are either irrelevant, incorrect, or nonexistent options for the form or the completion actions.

Warming up an IP address is the process of gradually increasing the volume of emails sent from a new or cold IP address to establish a good reputation with the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and avoid being blocked or filtered as spam. Warming up an IP address has two main benefits: increasing deliverability and building up email reputation. Increasing deliverability means that your emails have a higher chance of reaching the inbox of your recipients, rather than being rejected, bounced, or sent to the spam folder. Building up email reputation means that your IP address is recognized as a legitimate and trustworthy sender by the ISPs, and that your emails are compliant with the best practices and standards of email marketing

Dynamic lists are lists that automatically add or remove prospects based on criteria that you define. Prospects can be “unmatched” from a dynamic list if they no longer meet the criteria. For example, if you have a dynamic list of prospects who have opened an email in the last 30 days, and a prospect does not open any email for 31 days, they will be removed from the list. Automation rules and segmentation rules do not “unmatch” prospects, they only apply actions to prospects that match the criteria

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

The recommended way to identify the prospects who purchased a certain product within the last year and export them to a .csv file is to create a segmentation rule based on the Product Name field. A segmentation rule is a one-time rule that matches prospects based on certain criteria and performs certain actions. You can create a segmentation rule that matches prospects who have the specific product name in the Product Name field and the action to export them to a .csv file. This way, you can get a one-time export of all the prospects who have the product name before it changes. An automation rule, a completion action, or a dynamic list are not suitable for this goal, as they are either recurring, real-time, or based on an activity, not a one-time export based on a field value. References [Segmentation Rules Overview]

 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]

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.

The three things that will affect the prospect records based on these activities are:

• Bob’s prospect record will show him clicking on the link and filling out the form. This is because when an unknown visitor fills out a form, they become a known prospect and their previous activities are tracked and associated with their prospect record1.
• Kate’s prospect record will show her clicking on the link and filling out the form. This is because Marketing Cloud Account Engagement tracks the activities of known prospects who interact with your marketing assets, such as custom redirects and forms2.
• Kate’s prospect record will have a tag of “clicked” applied to it. This is because the custom redirect has a completion action to add a tag of “clicked” to all prospects that click it, and completion actions are actions that Marketing Cloud Account Engagement executes after a prospect successfully completes a desired activity

 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.

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

To troubleshoot why a prospect did not receive an email from a drip program, an Administrator should check the following tabs in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement:

• The Audits tab to see if the prospect was on the correct lists when the email was sent. This tab shows the list membership changes and email sends for the prospect.
• The Overview tab to determine whether the prospect is unmailable. This tab shows the prospect’s email status, which could be opt-out, hard bounce, or do not email.
• The Lists tab to determine whether the prospect is on the recipient list or any suppression lists. This tab shows the lists that the prospect belongs to, including any lists that are used to exclude prospects from receiving emails. References: Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Audits Tab, Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Email Statuses, Marketing Cloud Account Engagement Lists

 A hard bounce refers to an email that permanently bounced back to the sender because the address is invalid. A hard bounce occurs when the prospect’s email address is incorrect, the domain name does not exist, or the sender is suspected as spam and/or has been blocked7. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement marks prospects with hard bounces as undeliverable and prevents any further email sends to them8. A hard bounce is different from a soft bounce, which is a temporary delivery failure due to reasons such as a full mailbox, a server outage, or a message size limit9. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement retries sending emails to prospects with soft bounces until they are delivered or until they reach five soft bounces, after which they are marked as undeliverable

According to the Salesforce documentation, the first step the user must take in order to change which email template is used in a running engagement program is to pause the program. A running engagement program is a program that is actively sending emails and performing actions to the prospects in the program. To make any changes to a running program, such as changing the email template, the user must first pause the program to stop the email sends and actions. After making the changes, the user can resume the program and continue the email sends and actions. Copying the original engagement program, changing the wait time for the template, or deleting the old sent email are not the first steps the user must take, as they will not allow the user to change the email template in the running program. References: Salesforce documentation

The answer that correctly describes what will happen to the prospects who landed on the End step more than 90 days ago and previously reached the 5 total entries limit is that prospects will re-enter the program immediately. A repeating engagement program is a type of program that allows prospects to re-enter the program after a certain period of time, such as 90 days, and up to a certain number of times, such as 5. If a user changes the total entries limit to a higher number, such as 10, the prospects who have already reached the previous limit, but are eligible to re-enter based on the time period, will re-enter the program as soon as the user restarts the program. Prospects will not re-enter the program after waiting another 90 days, remain ineligible to re-enter the program, or not re-enter the program until manually approved, as these are not the effects of changing the total entries limit2. References: 2: Repeating Engagement Programs

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

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 runs only once, as soon as the user completes the rule creation process. The rule will not run again, unless the user manually re-runs it or schedules it to run at a later date. A segmentation rule does not run continuously, up to five times, or as many times as the user specifies when they create the rule1. References: 1: Segmentation Rules

According to the Salesforce documentation, the option that adheres most closely to email sending best practices is: B) Establish a consistent, predictable cadence for your email communications. Email sending best practices are guidelines that help users to create and send effective and engaging emails to their prospects and customers. Email sending best practices can cover different aspects of email marketing, such as content, design, deliverability, and performance. One of the email sending best practices is to establish a consistent, predictable cadence for your email communications, meaning that you should send your emails at regular intervals and frequencies, and that you should align your email sends with your audience’s expectations and preferences. By establishing a consistent, predictable cadence for your email communications, you can build trust and loyalty with your subscribers, increase your open and click rates, and avoid spam complaints or unsubscribes. When possible, sending emails on Monday mornings in order to stay top of mind throughout the week, sending plain text only emails in order to increase engagement rates, or making sure that all emails have a high image-to-text ratio are not the options that adhere most closely to email sending best practices, as they are either ineffective, outdated, or detrimental options for email marketing.

According to the Salesforce documentation, the two capabilities that are true for completion actions are: C) Completion actions cannot be applied directly on a landing page, and D) Completion actions do not execute on image file downloads. A completion action is an automation tool that can be used to perform an action after a prospect successfully completes a marketing element, such as clicking a link in an email, submitting a form, or visiting a web page. A completion action can be used to perform actions such as adding a prospect to a list, assigning a prospect to a user, sending an autoresponder email, or adjusting a prospect’s score. Completion actions cannot be applied directly on a landing page, as landing pages do not have completion actions. However, completion actions can be applied on the forms or custom redirects that are embedded on the landing page. Completion actions do not execute on image file downloads, as image file downloads are not considered as completion events. However, completion actions can be executed on other types of file downloads, such as PDFs or Word documents. Completion actions are not applied retroactively, as they are only applied to prospects who complete the marketing element after the completion action is created. Completion actions do not apply to both visitors and prospects, as they only apply to prospects who have been identified by their email address or their Marketing Cloud Account Engagement tracking cookie.

 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

 According to the [Salesforce documentation], in order to set up an automated grading model in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, two components are required: profile and automation rule. A profile is a set of criteria that defines an ideal prospect for a specific product or service. A profile can include information such as industry, job title, location, company size, etc. An automation rule is a logic-based action that can be triggered when a prospect meets certain criteria. An automation rule can be used to assign a grade to a prospect based on their profile match. A Marketing Cloud Account Engagement score is a numerical value that indicates the level of interest and engagement of a prospect, but it is not required for setting up an automated grading model. A dynamic list is a list of prospects that is updated automatically based on certain criteria, but it is not required for setting up an automated grading model either.

The user role that a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement user must have in order to verify the Salesforce connector is Administrator. 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 the Administrator user role in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, which gives you full access to all features and settings in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, including the connectors. You also need to have the appropriate permissions in Salesforce, such as the API Enabled and Modify All Data permissions

 What happens to the wait time when a user pauses an engagement studio program and the prospect still has time remaining on the wait period is that the wait time is paused and the prospect will finish the remaining wait time when the program resumes and proceed to the next step. An engagement studio program is a program that automates the delivery of emails and other actions based on the behavior and criteria of the prospects. A wait time is a period of time that the program waits before executing the next step. When a user pauses an engagement studio program, the prospects in the program are also paused and their wait times are not affected. Therefore, when the user resumes the program, the prospects resume from where they left off and finish the remaining wait time before moving to the next step. The other options are not what happens to the wait time when a user pauses an engagement studio program. References [Engagement Studio FAQ]

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 two types of domains that Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sets cookies on are Marketing Cloud Account Engagement domains and Tracker domains. Cookies are small pieces of data that are stored on your browser when you visit a website, and they can be used to track your online behavior and preferences. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sets cookies on two types of domains:

• Marketing Cloud Account Engagement domains are domains that are hosted by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, such as go.Marketing Cloud Account Engagement.com or pi.Marketing Cloud Account Engagement.com. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sets cookies on these domains to track the activities of prospects who interact with your marketing assets, such as forms, landing pages, or custom redirects.
• Tracker domains are domains that are owned by you, but are verified and authenticated by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, such as yourcompany.com or yourblog.com. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement sets cookies on these domains to track the activities of prospects who visit your website, such as page views, time spent, or bounce rate.

According to the Salesforce documentation, the two benefits of the engagement studio testing experience are: B) Visualizing a prospect’s possible paths, and D) Measuring a specific step’s performance. The engagement studio testing experience is a feature that allows users to test and troubleshoot their engagement studio programs before launching them. The testing experience can help users to: Visualize a prospect’s possible paths: The testing experience can show the user how a prospect can move through the program based on different scenarios and outcomes. The user can see the positive, negative, and neutral paths that a prospect can take after each step, and the actions and emails that the prospect will receive. The user can also see the number of prospects that are expected to take each path based on the current recipient list. Measuring a specific step’s performance: The testing experience can show the user the performance metrics of each step, such as the number and percentage of prospects who have completed, skipped, or are waiting for the step. The user can also see the email metrics of each email step, such as the number and percentage of prospects who have opened, clicked, or unsubscribed from the email. The user can use these metrics to evaluate and optimize the effectiveness of each step. Evaluating email template options for the program or understanding the timeline of the program are not benefits of the engagement studio testing experience, as they are related to other aspects of the program creation, such as choosing the email content or setting the wait times.

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]

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

The best way to accomplish this scenario is to select General Address for the Custom Reply-To Address when sending the list email. This option allows the marketer to specify any email address as the reply-to address, regardless of the sender or the prospect owner. In this case, the marketer can enter bdr@lenoxsoft.com as the reply-to address, so that any prospect replies will be directed to the business development reps. Option A is not correct because selecting Specific User for the Sender will not allow the marketer to send the email on behalf of the assigned sales users, but only from a specific Marketing Cloud Account Engagement user. Option B is not correct because selecting General User for the Sender will not allow the marketer to send the email on behalf of the assigned sales users, but only from a general address that is not associated with any Marketing Cloud Account Engagement user. Option C is not correct because selecting Assigned User for the Custom Reply-To Address will not allow the marketer to direct the prospect replies to bdr@lenoxsoft.com, but only to the user who owns the prospect record.

By default, Marketing Cloud Account Engagement writes to two objects in Salesforce: contact records and lead records. These are the two objects that store information about individual prospects in Salesforce. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement syncs with these objects based on the email address field, which is the unique identifier for prospects. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement can create new contact or lead records in Salesforce, or update existing ones, depending on the sync settings and rules. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not write to case records, opportunity records, or account records by default, but it can read from them and use their information for segmentation and reporting purposes. References Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and Salesforce Sync Behavior

The way that a visitor can convert to a prospect is by submitting a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form. A visitor is an anonymous person who visits a website that has Marketing Cloud Account Engagement tracking code installed. A visitor can be identified by their IP address, location, browser, device, and pages viewed. A visitor can also be tracked by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement cookies if they have visited the website before. A visitor can convert to a prospect when they provide their email address to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement through a form, a form handler, a landing page, or a custom redirect. A prospect is a known person who has a record in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and can be associated with a lead or a contact in Salesforce. A prospect can be tracked by their email address, activities, score, grade, and other fields. A prospect can also be segmented, nurtured, and qualified by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement5. Option A is not correct because downloading an eBook does not necessarily convert

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. References: 2: Dynamic Lists

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. 

The correct way to use a custom account field in Salesforce for segmentation in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement is to create a custom account field in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and map it to the account field in Salesforce. This will allow you to sync the data between the two systems and use the custom field as a segmentation criterion in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. You can create a custom account field in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement by going to Settings > Object and Field Configuration > Prospect Account Fields > Add Custom Field. Then, you can map it to the corresponding account field in Salesforce by selecting it from the drop-down menu

The best practice when multiple users are editing an email template at the same time is to always click Save and Exit or Save Draft and Exit to commit your changes and close your session before someone else edits it. This way, you can avoid overwriting or losing your work, and ensure that the email template is consistent and accurate. If you do not save and exit, the system will warn you that another user is editing the same email template and ask you to confirm your changes

The correct answer is A, B, C, E, and F. 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 perform various actions on prospects, such as sending emails, adjusting scores, changing campaigns, or adding tags. Completion actions are available for the following activities: custom redirects, emails, forms, files, and page actions. You cannot use completion actions for automation rules, as they are a different type of criteria-based action that is triggered when a prospect matches the rule.

Answer D is incorrect because completion actions are not available for automation rules, as explained above. References: Completion Actions, [Automation Rules]

In Salesforce Pardot, enhancing form security and preventing bot submissions can be effectively managed using two specific settings: reCaptcha and the Honeypot Technique.

• reCaptcha: This is a service provided by Google that helps protect websites from spam and abuse. A "CAPTCHA" is a turing test to tell human and bots apart. It is easy for humans to solve, but hard for "bots" and other malicious software to figure out. By integrating reCaptcha, forms can verify that the person submitting the form is indeed a human, thus adding a layer of security against automated attacks.
• Honeypot Technique: This is a clever and non-intrusive method of detecting bots. It involves adding an additional field to the form that is invisible to human users but visible to bots. The principle here is that while a human won’t see or interact with this hidden field, a bot will typically attempt to fill it out. When the form is submitted, if data is found in the honeypot field, the submission can be flagged as coming from a bot and thus be ignored or handled differently.

Both options are specifically tailored to enhance the security of forms in Pardot, helping to mitigate unwanted bot traffic and ensuring that engagement and leads generated are genuine.

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.

The correct answer is that the prospects are added to the program and automatically start processing through the program. This is because dynamic lists are constantly updated based on the criteria that you define, and if a dynamic list is used as a recipient list on an engagement studio program, any new prospects that match the criteria will be added to the program as soon as they are synced to Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. They will not wait for the program to be paused, restarted, or manually selected. They will start from the first step of the program and follow the path according to their actions and rules
