Marketing-Cloud-Account-Engagement-Specialist Practice Test

Explanation:

The possible explanation for the discrepancy between the total clicks and the unique clicks metrics in the report for a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement email is that prospects clicked the call-to-action link multiple times. The total clicks metric counts the total number of times that a link in an email was clicked by any prospect, regardless of how many times they clicked it. The unique clicks metric counts the number of unique prospects who clicked a link in an email, regardless of how many times they clicked it. Therefore, if a prospect clicked the same link more than once, it would increase the total clicks metric, but not the unique clicks metric. Prospects clicking the unsubscribe link, prospects being removed from the recipient list, or prospects being deleted are not possible explanations for the discrepancy, as they would not affect the click metrics4.

Explanation:

The list email or email template report deliverability metric that could indicate an unverified sending domain is hard bounces. Hard bounces are permanent delivery failures, such as invalid email addresses or blocked domains. Hard bounces can negatively affect the sender reputation and the email deliverability. One of the possible causes of hard bounces is an unverified sending domain, which means that the email domain used to send emails from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement is not authenticated and verified by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. An unverified sending domain can result in the email servers rejecting the emails as spam or phishing attempts. To avoid hard bounces and improve email deliverability, the marketer should verify the sending domain in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement by following the steps in the reference link. Forward count, skimmed percentage, and total queued are not deliverability metrics that could indicate an unverified sending domain. Forward count measures how many recipients forwarded the email to another person. Skimmed percentage measures how many recipients opened the email for less than two seconds. Total queued measures how many emails were waiting to be sent from Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. These metrics are not related to the email domain verification or the email delivery failures.

Explanation:

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

Explanation:

The way a visitor can convert to a prospect is by submitting a form on a landing page. A visitor is an anonymous person who visits your website, while a prospect is a known person who has an identified email address. A visitor becomes a prospect when they fill out a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form, which captures their email address and other information. A landing page is a web page that contains a form and a call to action, such as downloading a file or registering for an event. When a visitor submits a form on a landing page, they become a prospect and can be tracked and nurtured by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. Viewing an embedded form, visiting a tracked website, or receiving a marketing email are not ways to convert a visitor to a prospect, as they do not capture the visitor’s email address or identify them as a prospect.

Explanation:

In Pardot, new custom fields for prospects are created in the Prospect Fields page under the admin settings. Once a field is created here, it can then be added to forms as needed. This process ensures that all data captured through forms is aligned with the prospect data structure already established in the system, allowing for consistent data management and integration with Salesforce CRM fields if required. This separation of field creation and form editing ensures organized management of prospect data attributes.
