I have cleared the Marketing Cloud Consultant Certification! Woohoo!! I have been working on Marketing Cloud for a year when I took this. The hands-on experience and the experience of working with different clients definitely helped in clearing the certification.
Here’s a video course on Marketing Cloud Consultant Certification that I made – Marketing Cloud Consultant Certification Video Course
What’s more special is Salesforce itself claims that among all the consultant exams, (Service, Sales, Pardot), this one undeniably comes across as being the toughest one.
As you all know, I’d love to share my knowledge especially in the certification preparation process, I’d do the same here for this certification as well. Earlier, I had shared how to prepare for the Marketing Cloud Email Specialist certification which is a pre-requisite for this consultant exam. And also Preparation Notes for Platform App Builder Certification which will be useful if you are just getting into Salesforce. You must pass the Email specialist exam if you are planning for the consultant exam.
In this blog series, I will be explaining the concepts of Marketing cloud in the order of focus areas mentioned in the certification guide. I’d split them into multiple posts for easier references.
In this post, I’d like to highlight the different topics involved in this certification. There are 10 of them as shown below, with the % of Weightage in the certification. If you observe there is no such topic with a huge % of Weihtage, that means you’d need to focus on all the topics equally and the number of questions ranges from 4 to 8 for each topic.
| Marketing Cloud Consultant Topics | % of Weightage | Expected No. of Questions | My Exam Result in % | No. of Correct Answers |
| Discovery | 13% | 8 | 66% | 5 |
| Conceptual Design | 12% | 7 | 100% | 7 |

| My Scoring % | 73.33% | Pass |
Pass % is 68% i.e., about 41 questions out of 60 questions in 105 minutes (includes 5 non-scoring questions)

A retail company’s database of record resides at a 3rd-party company that also keeps track of purchase history.
That database only updates once a day where new records can be created and merged.
The database uses an “Email ID,” which is a numeric field that represents both the business unit and email address.
The company now wants to be able to send real-time Welcome emails to people (newly registered website users) who provide their email address in exchange for getting 10% off their first order, and ensure this send is connected to “Email ID” in the database.
What key issue should be addressed?
Choose 3 answers
A)How will Marketing Cloud and the database sync up?
B)Will new users have an ‘Email ID’?
C)What will be used as Subscriber Key?
D)What publication lists will be used?
E)Will the company need a custom preference center?
I think A, D,E . I think we don’t need to worry about B and C, since this was mentioned in text. Please advise 🙂

A user in the MC wants to use salesforce custom object data for segmenting and personalization.
How should the consultant approach this requirement?
Export report data from the sales cloud and import into a marketing cloud synchronized data extension.Use a filter activity to produce a sendable data extension. Create an email send activity in Automation Studio.
Sync contact and custom objects with Data Stream and send from Synchronized Data Extension with Salesforce email send. Ensure there is a lookup relationship to a contact or lead record.
Create a custom report type that contains the contact or lead ID, email address, and custom object data then from the marketing cloud, import into a Salesforce Data extension. Use AMPScript in the email to call data
Map the custom objects to the profile center and use the email editor to insert the custom data. Create a user-initiated send to associate the email to the largest audience and return tracking data.

However, if you look into Salesforce official website: https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=mc_bp_journey_entry_control_best_practices.htm&type=5, the answer is “Re-entry anytime allows a contact to enter the journey multiple times and be in the journey at the same time.

I think A) because there is ambiguity in the time “sometime after 4pm” so the automation should be triggered.
Which leaves us the other option C) which does not have a ‘wait’ in place therefore it would send the survey email immidiately which isnt what we want. And if it implies that there are 2 seperate automations in C) it is still incorrect because there are 2 email activities in ‘Automation 2’.
In conclusion A is the correct answer for me.
