Triggers or real-time marketing in Marketo

🧙‍♂️⚔️👑 Embark on a journey of strategy and foresight with #MerlinLeonard and discover real-time marketing!

Think of King Arthur, vigilant in his stronghold – the market; with his brave knights – his team; and the elusive Morgana – the unexpected guest. 🎯

Suddenly, a brilliant light signals – not Excalibur, but equally potent – a #MarketoTip! 💡

Led by our in-house wizard, Sylvain Davril 🧙‍♂️, Arthur discovers the secret to Marketo’s real-time triggers. Now, he’s prepared to foresee and plan based on Morgana’s potential actions.

When Morgana fills a form at the castle entrance, a real-time alert is sent to Arthur. His knights receive immediate notifications. Arthur, acting as a skilled leader, conveys instant alerts to his knights, his call to arms echoing throughout the castle. 🏰

Employing the journey tracking spell, Arthur keeps track of Morgana’s progress within the castle. He’s prepared for every action, each step, ready to react when required.

With #MarketoTriggers, Arthur morphs his castle into a hub of real-time customer engagement.

Use your CRM Business Model in Marketo for a better Customer Marketing thanks to Marketo Custom Objects

🔮✨👑 [Marketo Tip #05 – Your business model comes to life with Marketo] 👑✨🔮

Top of the morning to everyone, Sylvain Davril from Merlin/Leonard here! Today I have a Camelot-inspired story to highlight the usefulness of Custom Objects in Marketo.

Think of King Arthur, facing an unprecedented drought. To save his lands, he requires the services of wizards who can cause rain. With a CRM of wizards and their spells, how do you select only the ones who can make it rain?

🌦️ This is where Marketo Custom Objects come into play in King Arthur’s dilemma:

1️⃣ Arthur sets up a “Spells” Custom Object in Marketo, incorporating all the significant details such as the spell name, power level, duration, and the wizard who has it.
2️⃣ Then, our king imports these details from an Excel file or through an integration between his CRM and Marketo.
3️⃣ Custom Objects allow Arthur to create filters to target only those wizards capable of eliciting rain.
4️⃣ With Marketo’s Triggers, Arthur can trigger targeted actions, such as sending an email summoning wizards when rain is needed.
5️⃣ This way, Arthur can manage his wizard repertoire, ensure rain on his lands and preserve his crops!

With Marketo and Custom Objects, data management becomes as easy as counting to three! Whether you’re an old-time king or a modern entrepreneur, Marketo helps you target and communicate with your audience effectively and accurately.

Create beautiful email & LP Marketo templates with OTOWUI

We present OTOWUI this Friday in our #Marketoofficehour @10AM CET with Charles.

First impressions are often the right ones.

In marketing, it’s often your emails and landing pages that are the first line and set the tone.

On this side, I tried everything with Marketo.

  1. Using the free templates (thanks Marketo!) and adapting them to my charter: good as a first approach but still missing this totally gimmicky section, so absolutely essential.
  2. Trying an “expert” freelancer: yeah…, not too happy with the result on the long term, too many bugs hidden on the right and on the left.
  3. (I didn’t try to have my templates made by a non-specialized agency, I’m not crazy).
  4. To have a set of templates made by a Marketo agency in India: there you have to specify everything in the smallest details otherwise it is not done; the cultural difference is there.
  5. I looked at Knak for a while but their rates are well adapted to mature markets like the USA, not France.
  6. Having a set of templates made by a specialized Marketo agency in France: that’s great, it’s a budget, but afterwards you’re autonomous, with templates according to your charter.

And that’s when the communication team arrives proudly with a rebranding plan.

Of course, on emails, we can manage because the colors and fonts are customizable on the templates, but on web pages, often, the difference is too important to be manageable with the parameters of the template….

But then, no solution on the horizon?

Yes, there is one: my friend Charles THIERY created OTOWUI which allows you to :

Very excited to show you the latest news. Charles and Sylvain

Marketo CRM Integration – Take back control with Vertify!

Integrating Adobe Marketo with your CRM is key to a better marketing.

And with Marketo we have the chance to have two native integration with Salesforce and MS Dynamics.

But what for the others? A custom integration is always long, painful, and usually stops after the first version when you have just one flow.

The cost in missed go-to-market speed, bad decisions, or missing data is just huge. The IT department has always something better to do in the core business compared to developing custom integrations for the marketing.

That is where VertifyData comes handy. “Almost native” integrations between Marketo and the main CRMs : Pipedrive, SugarCRM, ZohoCRM, and obviously Salesforce and MS Dynamics.

Why the last two are you asking?

You may have SFDC or MS Dynamics and not be entirely satisfied with the native integration,
👉 you want to go further with more flows,
👉 or have a better control on the integration
👉 or you may have ONE Marketo that you want to connect to TWO Salesforce

I will deep dive in Vertify in our #marketoofficehour on Friday 13th at 10AM CET, and will answer all your questions !
