UNICORN FINTECH COMPANY PROFILE

Unicorn Fintech is a mobile-only financial-servicesstartup created by a consortium of consumer banks to resell savings, checking, loan, transfer/remittance, and other services from a secure smartphone app. The company is venture-funded, and plans to reach profitability before a planned IPO in two years.

Business issues and requirements

Marketing is responsible for acquiring new customers 0 through online, television advertising, and email campaigns, and for cross-selling new services to customers through IM, email, and in-app campaigns. Evaluating the success of these campaigns has been a persistent problem: although the company can track revenue by product line, it can't attribute those revenues to campaigns: for example, did a new loan come from onboarding a new customer, or by cross-selling a savings-account customer? Marketing currently uses

crude, manual tools and guesswork to evaluate the quality and lifespan of new leads, and even the deliverability of emails in its external campaigns. As a result, the department can't allocate spending to the most productive campaigns, or decide how much different touchpoints in multi-stage campaigns contribute to revenue. Operational processes to connect lead data to CRM and other databases are entirely manual.

Staffing and leadership

Unicorn has fewer than 200 employees, and roles aren't always defined in traditional ways. Since customer acquisition and cross-selling are primarily through electronic channels, Marketing and IT roles especially often overlap. The traditional Sales role falls entirely to Marketing, and IT is responsible for the Salesforce CRM system, Google Analytics, and a handful of third-party integrations. The CMO and CIO work closely together on most initiatives, and budgets are typically project-driven rather than fixed annually. Individual contributors to Marketing campaigns include the Marketing Operations Manager, responsible for lead scoring and analytics. Key IT contacts include the CRM Administrator and Web Developer. Incidental contributors are the Corporate Attorney, who signs off on opt-in/out and DMARC policies.

Revenue sources

Unicorn earns commissions on financial services delivered by the banking consortium through its apps, including fixed finders' fees for what the company calls "skips"-customers who initially engage with Unicorn, but then "skip" to receive services directly from a consortium bank. Unicorn needs to attribute revenue from these customers to its own campaigns; currently, it's impossible to attribute ROI to individual campaigns, or provide documentation to claim commissions on "skips."

Current and aspirational marketing technology

Current Marketing technology consists of Marketable,an open-source lead management solution supported by a set of spreadsheets and scripts developed in-house. Marketable offers lead tracking and source attribution, but not multi-touch source attribution. Unicorn Fintech Marketing has difficulty linking the different stages of customer campaign journeys, and relies on scripts to translate Marketable's "sales alerts" into next steps it could use in multi-touch campaigns. IT has worked out scripts to input Marketable qualified leads into Salesforce, but the system is brittle and often requires manual intervention.

Current campaign management processes

A typical email campaign:

* Addresses a purchased (for customer acquisition) or0 in-house (for cross-sell) list. Purchased lists range from 300,000 to 1.5 million addresses

* Is sent from multiple data centers in the US and Canada

* Includes an "unsubscribe" opt-out below the message

* Is static; there are no formula fields

* Uses no deliverability authentication, nor integration 0 with any email management platform.

All campaigns to date direct respondents to a single 0 landing page with the company's "all markets" message. More sophisticated targeting is a high priority.

Current lead management and attribution

Unicorn's lead-management process follows

Marketable's "out of the box" defaults: lead evaluation levels 1 through 3, lifecycle stages "unqualified" and "qualified." The qualification processes are manual, and highly subjective: Marketing staff classify leads according to prospect email responses, including free-form comments. "Sales" followup is by email forms prompting higher levels of engagement. The company intends to phase out Marketable and replace spreadsheets and scripts with native features of whatever solution set it adopts.

Attribution processes are binary: response to a campaign email or web visit is rated a success if it results in a sale: there is no success rating assigned to TV ads that result in web visits, for example. Cost are not allocated to individual campaigns.

The Marketing department plans to expand outreach to social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, in-house and third-party financial blogs), and wants to make sure it can assess the ROI of these channels, and the overall social media program.

Current governance processes

Currently, the Marketing department assigns content development and campaign management duties to team members on a campaign-by-campaign basis. All team members (and IT) have access to all assets and tools, which sometimes leads to duplication and conflicts. The CMO realizes that a more specialization will be necessary to support the social media campaigns, but hasn't decided on the optimal organizational model.

Input of qualified leads from Marketable into

Salesforce is by manual cut-and-paste, assisted by scripts; inconsistency of input practices across Marketing team members is a known problem; individual members have their own "go-to" fields: where one member might check "TV ad" as Lead Source, another would put that in the comments field.

CMO

The CMO's most important concerns are:

* The current solution has too many manual steps to scale with anticipated growth

* Without more sophisticated attribution, the company will overinvest in less productive campaigns, and underinvest in better ones

* In general, analytics integrations are manual, slow, and unreliable

* The current system completely misses "skips"-customers switching from the Unicorn app to consortium banks-an important source of revenue

* Documenting the value of Unicorn's Marketing processes is essential to the success of the planned IPO, and millions of dollars in stock valuation hangs in the balance.

CIO

The CIO is concerned primarily with:

* The amount of time his team spends patching up Marketing campaigns and CRM data transfers, at the expense of other, critical initiatives

* Quality and reliability of the Analytics information his team provides to Marketing

MARKETING STAFF

Marketing Operations staff concerns:

* Campaigns require so much work that they can't run as many of them as they need to

* Multi-touch cross-selling campaigns (for example, savings accounts to loans) with excellent margins, but no way to know which campaign touches perform best

* Getting swamped with manual record-keeping; for example, spreadsheet mistakes take hours to find and

fix

* Poor integration with third-party tools for preparing, sending, and evaluating campaign materials, for

Example.

o Webhook not firing,

o Reaching API limit

o Synchronization errors with third-party tools and Salesforce

* Inadequate number of lead stages and qualification levels, making it difficult to evaluate lead value, especially in multi-touch campaigns

Despite the absence of an external Sales team,

Marketing Operations would like to improve the granularity of their lead tracking, including both lifecycle stages and quality levels, with "no score" and negative levels.

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

How should the Marketo Engage Architect set up the program structure to achieve these reporting goals?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: B

Creating new ABM channels for paid social and retargeting is the best way to set up the program structure to achieve the reporting goals. This way, the ABM team can have their own channels with their own success and cost metrics, and report on their ROI separately from the social media team. The social media team can also see how all campaigns are performing by using the existing channels, and easily separate the ABM efforts by filtering by channel. Using the existing paid social and retargeting channels and adding ABM to the program name would not be a good solution, as it would not allow for separate cost and success metrics for the ABM programs. Using the existing paid social and retargeting channels and adding a tag for ABM would not be a good solution, as it would not allow for separate cost and success metrics for the ABM programs, and it would require manual tagging of each program.


Question No. 2

An organization wants to improve its Lead routing to its team across regions. Instead of using their default workspace and partition for region/country specific marketing on top of global operations, they currently have four 'regions' that cover six countries, each with their own Lead partition and Workspaces:

* EMEA: UK and Belgium

* ANZ: Australia and New Zealand

* NAM: USA

* ASIA: Japan

Singapore will be added as an additional country within 6 months.

As the organization moves away from the highly manual process of assigning leads as 'ready', the goal is to use their new Lead scoring to state that leads that are above 60 in Score are marked as MQL, and are synced to the right country team queue in their CRM. The CRM will then use automated workflows to take leads from the queues and decide which leads are assigned to which representative for that country.

Which efficient measures should betaken to make sure Leads from the right countries are synced to the correct queues in the CRM?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: B

The efficient measure that should be taken to make sure leads from the right countries are synced to the correct queues in the CRM is to build program in each region workspace. When the score reaches 60, trigger the Salesforce sync and assign to lead queues based on country. For example, ''If Country is USA, Assign to USA lead queue''. This measure will help the organization to improve its lead routing to its team across regions, as well as to use their new lead scoring to mark leads as MQLs. Building program in each region workspace will allow the organization to segment and target leads based on their region and country, as well as to leverage their existing workspaces and partitions. Triggering the Salesforce sync and assigning to lead queues based on country will allow the organization to sync leads that reach MQL status based on their score and assign them to the appropriate sales team queue in CRM.


Question No. 3

An Adobe Marketo Engage Architect needs to audit an existing Marketo Engage instance. Upon inspection, more than 1000 fields that only live in Marketo Engage were created for a single use to collect information for a specific event, or ask a specific question during the registration of an event.

What should the Architect recommend to their client regarding field creation best practices?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: A

Creating a set of temporary program member fields and using them on local forms for every event that requires custom questions is a good way to avoid creating too many fields that only live in Marketo Engage. Adding the leads to a static list can help retain the data if needed.

Question No. 4

An Adobe Marketo Engage Consultant is assigned to audit an existing Marketo Engage instance. The instance is 2 years old and follows a de-centralized model for program execution. Therefore, all marketers within the organization have been trained to operate and build in the Marketo Engage instance independently. During the audit, the consultant discovers:

1. Naming convention does not exist. Therefore, all program names are named arbitrarily.

2. There are four Marketo Engage Admins: The marketing operations manager, the demand generation manager, the CRM administrator, and the IT manager. All four admins have access to everything and have been creating fields on their own to fit individual business needs.

3. There is one workspace for the entire instance. However, the company has paid for additional workspaces.

4. There are two Revenue Lifecycle Models: a prospect lifecycle and a customer lifecycle.

The CMO wants to prioritize the following goals:

1. Ability to pull quick reports for prospect programs and customer programs from a reporting tool like Tableau.

2. Change the operating model from de-centralized to centralized so the marketing operations manager and CRM administrator are the only two people managing the operational side of the Marketo Engage instance and a new agency will manage the campaign execution on the behalf of marketing.

Which three recommendations should the Consultant make? (Choose three.)

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: B, C, D

The three recommendations that the Consultant should make are to create two workspaces: A prospect workspace and a customer workspace, to create a naming convention that tags customer vs prospect campaigns, and to reduce the access for the demand generation manager and IT manager to a limited role that cannot create fields. These recommendations will help the company to achieve their goals of pulling quick reports for prospect programs and customer programs from a reporting tool like Tableau, and changing the operating model from de-centralized to centralized. Creating two workspaces: A prospect workspace and a customer workspace will enable the company to segment and organize their programs based on their target audience, as well as to leverage their existing workspaces feature. Creating a naming convention that tags customer vs prospect campaigns will enable the company to standardize and identify their programs based on their purpose, as well as to facilitate reporting and analysis. Reducing the access for the demand generation manager and IT manager to a limited role that cannot create fields will enable the company to centralize and control their field management process, as well as to avoid field duplication or inconsistency.

Unicorn Fintech launches a new paid subscription app where users can sign up to read financial advice. Access to Unicorn Fintech's new app is renewed each year, and the App User Expiry Date is a date field that is updated hourly from CRM to Adobe Marketo Engage. Another string type field called App User Status changes to a status of "Current" in Marketo Engage when the App User's access becomes valid, and changes to "Lapsed" if the App User fails to renew.

The Marketing team wants to add App Users who have not yet renewed to an Engagement Program to nurture them 2 months prior to their App User Expiry Date, and then remove the App User from the nurture if they renew.

Which smart campaign setup is the most efficient to manage adding the App User to the nurture?

Show Answer Hide Answer
Correct Answer: C

Building a triggered Smart Campaign, using a Wait Step with a Date Token, and then Add to Engagement Program is the most efficient way to manage adding the App User to the nurture. This way, the Smart Campaign will trigger whenever the App User Status changes to ''Lapsed'', and then wait until two months before the App User Expiry Date to add the App User to the Engagement Program. Building a scheduled batch Smart Campaign would require running the Smart Campaign periodically to check for new App Users who have not renewed, which is less efficient. Using a Wait Step with a specific date would not work for different App Users who have different expiry dates. Changing Engagement Program Cadence would not add or remove the App User from the nurture.
