Nurture with the Right Content
In using social engagement data for their own lead nurturing, SaaS companies have found that
over the course of a month, real-time social-interest emails generate 2X the click-through rates
than a typical nurturing emails (meaning, emails that don’t take into account social engagement).
Open-rates on these emails are also 50% higher than typical nurture emails.

like a good customer-fit based
on their location, company size,

Interest: If the lead is
consistently downloading
content, viewing webinars, or
asking for a product demo, their
interest levin in your company

Declutter your
database
in 12 steps
Hello!
I am Emily Poulton, London MUG Leader and Marketo
Certified with 12 years of Marketing Ops experience.
I have partnered with many clients, helping them purge
their Marketo databases, with SFDC integrations.
38
39
Why the need to
declutter?
Database
clutter
Records in your Marketo database that
will never progress down the funnel
40
Why is it a problem?
41
‐ Adobe Marketo Engage is a CRM for marketers, with its own
database
‐ Contracted database limit
‐ Lead generation activity:
➕ increase number records in the database
➖ increase chance of going over the limit (££s)
‐ Having clutter in the database reduces your campaign performance
metrics
Do you know the cost of clutter in your database?
How to calculate the cost of clutter in your
database
42
‐ xxx records in Marketo database
‐ ~ 20% are clutter (on average)
‐ Current subscription annual cost
Cost of clutter = 20% of annual cost
The cost of clutter in your database will continue to grow if unaddressed as
your database grows over time.

much clutter you
have
Step 12
Declutter
Steps 9-
11
Create the
declutter plan
Steps 1
- 8
Understand how
much clutter you
have
STEP 1
blocklist
A list of IP addresses or domains associated with sending spam.
46
Find your
blocklist
According to the
Community, these are
fine to delete as they are
not real email addresses.
STEP 2
unsubscribes
When a person chooses to no longer receive marketing emails,
another term for opt-out.
48
Find your
unsubscribes
You can use the System
Smartlist but you may
have other fields to find
unsubscribed records in
your instance.
Marketo’s durable
unsubscribes will
remember people who
unsubscribed if they enter
the database again after
being deleted.
STEP 3
duplicates
Records in the database that will have the same email address
50
Finding dupes
● Change your view to
look at SFDC type
● Discuss with the SFDC
team / MOPs team
which record should
supercede another
when merging
● Manual job but can be
done in SFDC
● Useful reading
STEP 4
invalids
Email addresses in your database that are non-deliverable
52
Finding invalids
● Super handy article
● Anyone who has a
Category 2 bounce
should be email
invalid. Leads in this
category should be
considered for being
marked email invalid
if they are not
already.
STEP 5
Spam & spam traps
The most common term for unsolicited email.
54
Finding
SPAM
In the People view,
have all the reasons
listed for easy cross
checking
55
Finding potential
SPAM TRAPS
The different types of spam traps
can indicate different problems
with acquisition from issues with
forms (typo spam traps), not
properly maintaining a database
or removing invalid addresses
(expired domain spam traps) or
acquiring addresses without
permission often by purchasing
lists (pristine spam traps).
Any mail sent to these addresses
is marked as spam.
STEP 6
No email address
The email address field is empty
STEP 7
Other signals
Other fields or groups of people that your company does not see
as marketable
Ideas for areas to purge
Employees
Email address contains
@yourcompanydomain
Test Accounts
Do you have a product where an
account is created for a demo?
Is there a way to identify these
via a field?
Junky email
addresses
This may be a manual effort,
look at symbols and numbers in
email addresses, as well as
easy typing patterns (adsds) or
test
58
Personal email
domains?
Email address contains
@hotmail., @gmail., @yahoo.,
@yandex., @live. @aol.,
@mail.ru
Any countries you
don’t market to?
Country is X
Specific fields/
Lifecycle stages
Are there any additional fields
that you use to filter out non-
marketable records? Can you
delete rejected leads?
STEP 8
Left company
How does your company organise records who no longer work
at a company?
Ideas to find these records
● Left Company = True
● Unqualified Reason = No longer
at company
● Job title / name contains: GONE,
NO LONGER, LEAVER, LEFT
60
Step 12
Declutter
Steps 9-
11
Create the
declutter plan
Steps 1
- 8
Understand how
much clutter you
have
STEP 9
Create the purge
framework
Create a Purge Plan
Create a document using
the smartlists you have
created, and categorise
them into groups, and with
a summary of numbers.
You can create more
smartlists that group these
smartlists to have a unique
#leads.
This is how I would start,
you can use as a base.
Create a Purge Team
Find the relevant people on
your team / stakeholders to
start the discussion and
review the purge groups.
This could include your
CRM admin, a CRM
analyst, data analyst, your
global and local MOPs
teams, your manager, ...
63
STEP 10
marketo & Salesforce
SYNC
Exploring your company’s
rules around Marketo <> SFDC sync
Considerations
65
● Depending on your setup, you may be need to keep certain records in
Salesforce only, but want to purge them from the Marketo database.
This can cause sync issues. Do you have a custom sync enabled? Do
you need one? Read more>
● Keep records with direct opportunity associations, or SFDC type is
Customer for example.
● Don’t put your compliance at risk. Check with legal / privacy team how
long you need to keep opt-out data from your compliance program.
STEP 11
Re-engagement
campaigns
Check to see whether records in your database still have a pulse
Identifying records with “no pulse”
● Not Booked a meeting via [Chatbot]
in past 2 years
● Not Had a conversation via
[Chatbot] in past 2 years
● Not Was Added to Opportunity,
Opportunity is any in past 2 years
● Last [Gifting tool] Touch is empty
● Last [Sales outreach tool] is empty
● Not Opened Email is past 2 years
● Not Clicked link in Email in past 2
years
● Not Visited Web Page in past 2
years
● Not had Interesting moment in past
2 years
● Not Activity was Logged, subject is
not empty in past 2 years
● Not Activity was Updated, subject is
not empty in past 2 years
● Not Opened Sales Email, subject is
any in past 2 years
Create the re-engagement campaign
● Decide on how many emails and the cadence
● How this feeds into your compliance program
● How to manage non-responders
● Report back on records “brought back to life”
Step 12
Declutter
Steps 9-
11
Create the
declutter plan
Steps 1
- 8
Understand how
much clutter you
have
STEP 12
Deletion process
Get approval for this process before going ahead
72
● Once you delete, you cannot undo
● Save a back-up of the records you
are deleting on your secure server
● Create a smart campaign in
Marketo that you can request
● Be careful with naming
● Create the deletion steps
● Get approval in writing
● Send your first group for deletion
into the smart campaign
73
RECAP
74
Create all the
smartlists
.
Review with
stakeholders,
get approvals &
purge
Organise
records into
groups to create
your purge
frameworks

  • #20 Siloed social engagement data refers to two things: Any interaction with your social media content, including clicks, frequency of engagement, top engagement content topics, top converting posts, ect Lead of prospect activity that is flowing from your social media channels to a third part website (e.g. a social post that links to a curated article or anywhere outside your website. If you track properly, social engagement data can tell you a great deal about your leads’ pain points, their top-of-mind interests, who they are connected to, and how to best target them. This data is extremely valuable because it’s USER-GENERATED AND TYPICALLY FRESH AND ACCURATE. Now here’s even more incredible news… Integrating Oktopost to Marketo engage will introduce you to a whole new dimension of social engagement data. EVERY SINGLE SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT (link click, like, comment, share, etc) is automatically synced with Marketo. In addition, you will also be able to view other data points including networks, profiles, campaigns and content topics leads engaged with PRIOR to converting.
  • #23  With the wealth of social engagement provided by Oktopost, you can nurture the most relevant leads in Marketo. There are several ways to do this. One of the most efficient ways is by setting up Streams. Marketo Streams are pools of email content that are used to nurture leads, as shown here. You can set up rules and criteria to determine: The Stream that leads should be placed in The way leads move between Streams When deciding which leads go into which Marketo stream, you might choose to use ‘Interesting Moments’. In Marketo, an ‘Interesting Moment’ is a customizable set of criteria, for example, different content topics that leads engage with on social media. Once this Interesting Moment gets triggered – in other words, a prospect meets the specified criteria – this prospect is placed into the relevant Stream. Therefore, you can define how relevant or valuable leads are based on their social media activity. The more information you have, the more effective you can be at segmenting and engaging leads with the most relevant content.
  • #24 Using Marketo Streams, you can nurture leads with highly personalized email content according to their social media behavior. Below are two ways of implementing this into your workflow. Social-Interest Emails The first way is by sending interest-based email around various actions that leads take on social media. For example, you can have multiple versions of the same monthly newsletter – each one pertaining to a different content topic that your leads engaged with on social. For instance, imagine that a known lead clicks on a LinkedIn post that goes to a third-party thought leadership article on Topic A. With a social-interest campaign, the same individual will automatically receive more relevant content pertaining to Topic A. However, if a week later, the same known lead clicks on a Tweet that goes to a YouTube video, the social-interest campaign will send them content about Topic B. In this sense, leads can jump between different nurturing programs based on the topics they engaged with on social.
  • #25 When it comes to lead nurturing, marketers are not the only ones to benefit from social engagement. Additionally, sales reps can leverage social engagement to personalize their conversations with prospects, at scale. If a sales rep is unaware of a prospect’s social media activity, they lack valuable information needed to communicate effectively, and ultimately, to close a deal. There are two approaches to facilitate personalized sales outreach: Alerting Sales of Relevant Social Actions Whenever a lead takes a relevant social action –– whether it’s clicking or converting from one of your posts –– you can trigger a Marketo campaign, which pushes this data to your sales reps via Marketo Sales Insight in Salesforce and Microsoft Dynamics. After being notified of this social activity, sales reps can use this data to create hyper-relevant outreach emails. For example, SDR teams can mention relevant tweets (that prospects engaged with) inside their emails, including light call-to-actions. Referencing social actions in emails doubles the SDR’s response-rate, allowing them to schedule more monthly appointments. Whether you choose to send interest-based on sales-personalized emails, taking into consideration a lead’s social activity ensures that you’re nurturing them with the most relevant content, which makes for a very meaningful relationship. Capturing Negative Sentiment in Real-Time In any B2B sales cycle, knowledge equals power. That’s why, sales professionals need to keep a constant pulse on their prospects’ activity across all social media channels to understand their state of mind. Oktopost’s AI-powered social listening tool constantly monitors and analyzes audience interactions (direct messages, comments, and mentions) across the various networks to surface negative or positive sentiment. By integrating these social signals into Marketo, you can create an automated workflow, which alerts the relevant team members (sales, support, customer success, etc.), in real-time, of a person’s negative sentiment. This way, the respective team member can promptly follow-up with the individual, turning a negative experience into a positive one. Nurture at the Right Time Catching leads at the best time during the buying cycle is another important element of lead nurturing. Using Marketo’s Interesting Moments, you can deliver relevant emails to leads according to their social media interactions. For example, you may define an Interesting Moment as: “lead clicks social posts 3 times in the past week”. For your company, this specific interaction indicates an active prospect who’s highly interested in your company’s offering. Any time a prospect follows this path of interaction, Marketo will trigger a red flag, alerting your sales representatives of this activity inside Marketo Sales Insight. Being notified of a lead’s social activity prompts sales reps to deliver personalized emails, which are delivered at the most convenient and appropriate time.
  • #26 Long gone are the days where you garner a lead and automatically pass it to sales. With less than 25% of leads being sales-ready when they first come in [9], how do you know when it’s time for a sales rep to contact them? At what point is a lead defined as “sales-ready”? B2B marketing departments have spent a great deal of time and resources answering these questions. With lead scoring, marketers can identify which leads can be pushed to sales and which leads require further nurturing. Lead scoring is not a marketing-only methodology, rather a shared process for marketing and sales practitioners, which is vital to top-line revenue growth. Both teams can work together to use ‘scoring’ as a way of prioritizing leads based on their buying cycle and fit to your business. Scoring systems can be implemented using simple numbering (e.g. 5, 15, 20), rankings (like A, B, C, D) or terminology like ‘cold’, ‘warm’, and ‘hot’. The more data marketing and sales have on leads and prospects, the more clarity they have of their sales-readiness. According to Marketo, a 10% increase in lead quality can translate into a 40% increase in sales productivity [9]
  • #27 When using Marketo, all incoming leads can be scored with three basic parameters: Demographics and Firmographics. Do leads seem like a good customer-fit based on their location, company size, and industry? The closer a prospect is to your ideal customer profile, the more likely they are to close, and the higher the score they’re assigned. Interest. If the lead is consistently downloading content, viewing webinars, or asking for a product demo, their interest level in your company offering is probably high. Hence, they will receive a higher score. Buying Stage. It’s important to assess at what stage of the buyer’s cycle the lead has reached. Some companies may not be in the position to make a purchasing decision yet, in which case, the lead will need to cycle back to marketing for further nurturing. Increase or decrease scores according to a lead’s buying stage. Leads engaging on social media with product demos or customer case studies should be attached a higher score than leads engaging with blog articles. This ensures that only quality leads are being fast-tracked to sales.
  • #28 A lead may be extremely active on your social channels, but super inactive on your website – does that mean they’re any less interested in your product or service? The more you understand your buyers’ actions across multiple channels, including social media, the faster you can move a prospect from pre-qualified to an actual opportunity. Without social engagement, you may assume that potential buyers are uninterested, and as such, give them a negative score. This blindspot is detrimental to your scoring model because it misinforms you of a lead’s sales-readiness. To prevent this, there are two common ways of scoring leads based on social engagement: engagement type or engagement frequency. Engagement Type Engagement type refers to a lead’s specific social media activity – for example: Liking a post Tweeting a post Mentioning a company’s handle Sharing a post Clicking a post Converting via a post Since engagement types like shares and likes can be taken by leads at any stage of the buyer journey (or more specifically, towards the beginning of the funnel), they may be given a lower score. In this case, the low score indicates low interest and the need for further nurturing. In contrast, engagement types like clicks and conversions inform us of “mature leads” who are far more ripe to take the next step in the sales cycle. Engagement Frequency Alternatively, you can use social engagement to score a lead based on frequency threshold. How often a lead interacts with your social channels and content says a lot about how interested they are in purchasing from your company. Are leads that click on your LinkedIn posts 15 times more likely to close than leads that only engage with your content every 5 months? If so, bump up their score! Any type of repeated action on social media serves as good indication of someone whose interest has been captivated and who would happily speak to a salesperson. Similarly, if a lead has been completely inactive for a certain timeframe (such as 3 months), it’s a good idea to deduct from their score to indicate a decay in engagement. At this point, your lead nurturing program should only focus on leads with a high score, and thus, a high engagement.
  • #30 What is Marketing Attribution In Marketo, attribution is used to credit programs that helped drive pipeline and sales revenue. Attribution can also give credit to moving someone forward in your business model. Marketo offers two lead attribution models: First-Touch Attribution: answers a simple business question, "Which programs are good at acquiring profitable new names?" Multi-Touch Attribution: answers a complicated business question, "Which programs are most influential in moving people forward in the sales cycle over time?" How Social Engagement Influences Your Attribution Model Social media plays a critical role across the entire lead lifecycle. It's both a first-touch acquisition source and an influencing factor throughout the buyer's journey. People learn about your brand through Google searches, but also interact with your brand directly on social media. Therefore, no matter the attribution model you choose to build –– multi-touch, first-touch, or last-touch –– social media should be represented for a complete picture of the buyer journey. The biggest problem is that most B2B marketers only track top-of-funnel activities like traffic and click-through rates on social media, without considering the real revenue of social networks. This is because marketers often view social media solely as a brand awareness tool, when they should be viewing it as an engagement channel, where conversations start and education continues. A lead can go from clicking on a social post to viewing your webinar, to watching a product demonstration. Shortly after watching a product demo, the lead speaks with one of your sales reps, an opportunity is created, and one month later, they become a new customer. In a world where social engagement is ignored, 100% of revenue would be credited back to the webinar. But is this realistic? No. Let’s take a look at the following study. Study on SaaS Companies Lacking critical social insights, B2B marketing teams typically attribute 4% of MQLs to the wrong source. While 4% seems insignificant, imagine that these are thousands of leads being credited to email or website, when in fact, they came through social channels. By integrating Marketo with Oktopost, we have found that 24.9% of B2B buyers take relevant social actions each month – actions like clicking, liking, and converting from a post. With these numbers in mind, B2B marketers understand the impact of social on their conversion rates and are able to shift the way they allocate resources within the marketing team, giving more weight (about a quarter of their budget and time) to social media. First-Touch Attribution with Social Engagement The key to a successful attribution model is to understand all of the contributing factors and sources that drive conversions throughout the funnel. After all, not all page views or marketing channels are treated equally when it comes to conversions. In the example shown below, a program has been set up to capture leads whose first interaction with the brand was on social media. The first time a user clicks on an ok.to link, the Marketo pixel is triggered, and the Original Referrer (a.k.a initial touch point) will appear as ‘Inbound – Social Media’ (although it can follow any naming convention that you decide). To put this into context, imagine the following scenario: A new contact clicks on a LinkedIn post, which then leads them to fill out a webinar registration form, and two days later, drives them to speak to a sales representative. In this scenario, although multiple actions were taken, only social media will be credited for acquiring the new lead. With the new layer of social engagement data in Marketo, you can accurately give credit to social media interactions that helped in driving pipeline growth. It also gives you the opportunity to properly analyze the social media path (e.g. clicking a social link, sending a direct message, retweeting, etc.) that led to a particular conversation on your website, and figure out ways to improve your results.
  • #31 In the Engagement Economy, there is no such thing as ‘one size fits-all’. A person in an executive role, for example, requires a different piece of content than someone in a junior role. It’s all about delivering a customized experience to every single individual. For this reason, Marketo allows you to segment your lead database, and use these segments to create dynamic content.
  • #32 Your audience engages with your brand on social and clicks on posts they find interesting. But are you leveraging this activity to deliver personalized experiences? By connecting Oktopost’s social engagement data with Marketo, you can build sophisticated segments based on what your audience clicks on social media, and customize content accordingly. Let’s take an example. At Oktopost, we have 5 key content categories – employee advocacy, social media marketing, ROI, marketing automation, and content marketing. Any time a lead frequently clicks on social posts pertaining to one of these topics, Marketo places them into a relevant segment, and thereafter, provides them with similar content. 1. Create ‘Social Interest’ Segment First you need to create a custom segment in Marketo called ‘Social Interests’, along with the sub-segments named according to your main content topics. As you can see, we’ve named ours: advocacy, social media marketing, ROI, marketing automation, and content marketing.
  • #33 Next, you need to define the criteria for someone to be placed into this segment. In our case, we defined the ‘Trigger’ as ‘Clicks on Social Link’, and included other criteria such as ‘campaign tags’. To put this into context, any time someone clicks on a post (regardless of network) which is tagged inside Oktopost with the topic “advocacy”, they will automatically be placed into the ‘Advocacy’ Social Interest segment.
  • #34 Instead of sending the same generic email to all of your contacts, the Social Interest segment allows you to deliver highly-targeted emails aligned with your leads’ interest. For example, you can create Dynamic Content based on the segments you’ve built – when you send a newsletter (from Marketo), the same email can have different variations, customized to people's social interests. This level of personalization goes a long way in increasing content visibility and lead engagement. Next, you need to define the criteria for someone to be placed into this segment. In our case, we defined the ‘Trigger’ as ‘Clicks on Social Link’, and included other criteria such as ‘campaign tags’. To put this into context, any time someone clicks on a post (regardless of network) which is tagged inside Oktopost with the topic “advocacy”, they will automatically be placed into the ‘Advocacy’ Social Interest segment.
