Which list email report metric represents the total number of emails minus hard and soft bounces?

A. Total Opt Outs

B. Total Sent

C. Total Queued

D. Total Delivered

D.   Total Delivered

Explanation:

πŸ“ Question Explanation:
This question tests your understanding of fundamental email marketing metrics in Account Engagement. It asks you to identify the metric that accurately represents the number of emails that successfully reached recipient inboxes.

πŸ’‘ Why This is Correct:

Option D: Total Delivered βœ…
The Total Delivered metric is calculated by taking the Total Sent and subtracting all emails that failed to be delivered. This includes both Hard Bounces (permanent failures) and Soft Bounces (temporary failures). It is the definitive count of emails that reached the recipient's mail server.

❌ Why These Are Incorrect:

Option A: Total Opt Outs ❌
This metric shows the number of people who unsubscribed. It is a measure of list engagement and compliance, not of successful email delivery.

Option B: Total Sent ❌
This is the raw number of emails dispatched from Pardot's servers. It does not account for any bounces or delivery failures.

Option C: Total Queued ❌
This is an internal status indicating the number of emails waiting in the system's send queue. It is not a performance metric reported in the final results.

LenoxSoft wants to create a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement landing page that matches the exact look and feel of their website. Which method would produce the closest results?

A. Use a stock layout provided in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement

B. Use above form and below form content to create the layout

C. Embed the campaign tracking code on their website

D. Import layout using a URL from their website

D.   Import layout using a URL from their website

Explanation:

Summary: πŸŒβž‘οΈπŸ’»
To achieve a seamless, pixel-perfect match between a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement (Pardot) landing page and an external company website, the system needs to use the website's existing HTML structure and CSS styles. The most efficient and accurate method for obtaining the website's complete design elements is to import the layout directly from a live web page URL.

Correct Option:

D. Import layout using a URL from their website πŸ“€

Full HTML/CSS Capture: Account Engagement's layout template builder includes a feature to import a template from a URL. This process pulls the entire HTML and CSS structure of the provided web page, creating a layout template that perfectly replicates the look, feel, header, footer, and navigation of the original website.

Pixel-Perfect Match: This is the only method that ensures a near-exact match, as it uses the source code already used by the website, rather than relying on manual coding or stock layouts.

Incorrect Options:

A. Use a stock layout provided in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement πŸ–ΌοΈ
Stock layouts offer basic, pre-designed structures that are generic. They would require significant, time-consuming customization (manual coding) to match a specific corporate website's unique branding and design, and would therefore not produce the "closest results."

B. Use above form and below form content to create the layout πŸ“
The "above form" and "below form" sections are used to add simple text, images, or code around the form itself on the landing page. They are not the structural tool used to define the overall page layout, headers, footers, and design elements of the template.

C. Embed the campaign tracking code on their website πŸ”—
Embedding the campaign tracking code on the website only enables visitor tracking. It does not allow the user to create a landing page that uses the same visual design as the main website. This is a tracking step, not a design step.

A user wants to send an email to a prospect when a form is submitted and a specific field value is selected on that form. What automation tool could they use to accomplish this?

A. A completion action on the form submission

B. A dynamic list used to send list emails using the email template

C. An automation rule with a Match All match type

D. An automation rule with a Match Any match type

C.   An automation rule with a Match All match type

Explanation:

Summary: 🎯
The user needs to trigger an action (sending an email) based on two simultaneous criteria: a form submission AND the selection of a specific field value. While a standard Completion Action can handle the form submission part, it cannot directly check the value of a specific field selection. An Automation Rule is the only tool that can combine multiple, complex criteria with an AND logic (Match All) to achieve this precise segmentation before applying the email action.

Correct Option:

C. An automation rule with a Match All match type βœ…
Complex Criteria: An Automation Rule allows an admin to set up multiple criteria linked by the Match All (AND) logic. The rule would look like this:
1. Rule 1: Prospect has completed the specific Form.
2. Rule 2: Prospect Field (e.g., Interest) is the specific value (e.g., "Demo Request").
Triggered Action: The rule would then apply the action: "Send Email". This ensures the email is only sent when both the form is submitted AND the correct option is selected, providing the necessary precision.

Incorrect Options:

A. A completion action on the form submission πŸ“
A standard Completion Action is triggered immediately upon form submission but cannot contain conditional logic (if-then statements) based on specific field values. The action would be applied to every submission of that form, regardless of the field value selected.

B. A dynamic list used to send list emails using the email template πŸ“§
A Dynamic List is a segmentation tool that groups prospects but does not automatically send an email when a prospect joins the list. It requires a separate List Email action, which is a scheduled, manual send, not a real-time, automated trigger based on an action.

D. An automation rule with a Match Any match type βš–οΈ
Using a Match Any (OR) logic would be incorrect. If the rule was "Form Submitted OR Field Value Selected," the email would be sent to the prospect even if they just had the field value set from a previous activity, completely defeating the requirement of sending the email when the form is submitted.

A user wanes to use page actions to notify a specific user when a prospect visits an entire section of their website. This section contains three URLs:
➑️ https://www.tenoxsoft.eom/products/A
➑️ haps://www.tenoxsoft.con-i/products/B
➑️ https://www.lenoxsoft.eom/pfodocts/C
What is the recommended way for the user to accomplish this?

A. Create one page action with comma-separated URLs.

B. Set the page action URL as https://www.lenoxsoft.com/products/B

C. Create three separate page actions, one for each URL.

D. Set the page as a priority page in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement

B.   Set the page action URL as https://www.lenoxsoft.com/products/B

Explanation:

Summary: πŸ”—
The user wants to trigger a Page Action when a prospect visits any page within the /products/ directory. Page Actions have two primary ways to match a URL: an exact match or a wildcard match using the asterisk (*). The most efficient and recommended way to capture a visit to an entire section that shares a common path is to use a wildcard in the URL criteria.

Correct Option:

B. Set the page action URL as https://www.lenoxsoft.com/products/* ✨
Wildcard Matching: The asterisk (*) acts as a wildcard in Page Action URLs, allowing it to match any character sequence. Setting the URL to https://www.lenoxsoft.com/products/* tells the system to trigger the action whenever a prospect visits any page that begins with that path, including all three listed pages (A, B, and C) and any others added later.

Efficiency and Scalability: This method is the most recommended because it requires creating only one Page Action to cover the entire section, making it scalable and easy to maintain as new product pages are added.

Incorrect Options:

A. Create one page action with comma-separated URLs. πŸ” 
Page Action URL fields do not accept comma-separated lists of URLs. They are designed to accept a single URL string, which can be an exact URL or one containing a wildcard.

C. Create three separate page actions, one for each URL. 3️⃣
While creating three separate Page Actions, one for each URL (A, B, and C), would technically work, it is not the recommended way. It is inefficient, difficult to manage, and does not automatically cover future pages added to the /products/ section, making it unsustainable for website growth.

D. Set the page as a priority page in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement πŸ₯‡
A Priority Page is a setting that determines which page visits give the highest score increase. While these are often important pages, simply marking a page as "Priority" does not trigger a notification to a specific user; a Page Action with a "Notify User" completion action is required for that functionality.

Form or Form Handler? I need to be able to edit and change my form directly.

A. Form

B. Form Handler

A.   Form

Explanation:

Choosing between a Pardot Form and a Form Handler depends on the level of control required. Form Handlers integrate external forms but don’t allow editing inside Pardot. In contrast, Pardot Forms are built and managed directly within the platform. For a marketer who wants to edit, customize, and update the form in real time without relying on developers, Pardot Forms are the right choice.

Correct Option:

πŸ“ A. Form
Pardot Forms are native to the platform and can be designed, edited, and updated directly through the builder. They allow field management, progressive profiling, completion actions, and built-in reporting. Because they’re internal, marketers can make quick changes themselves without requiring developer assistance, making them ideal for ongoing campaigns.

Incorrect Option:

πŸ”§ B. Form Handler
Form Handlers are intended for teams already using external website forms. While they let Pardot collect submission data, edits to fields or layout must be done outside Pardot, typically requiring developer work. They don’t allow direct editing in Account Engagement, making them unsuitable here.
