Question 36

Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) has an upcoming campaign with a call to action to shop its new NTO outlet store. The campaign will need to send up to three emails but stop sending to each specific subscriber once they have made a purchase at the NTO outlet, and provide reporting on the success of the campaign. Which Journey Builder component addresses the two requirements of this campaign?
  • A Goals
  • B Decision Splits
  • C Exits
Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: A

Explanation

According to Salesforce Marketing Cloud's documentation, the correct answer for the question is 'Goals' because it addresses both requirements of the campaign. Firstly, 'Goals' component can be used to stop sending emails to specific subscribers once they have made a purchase at the NTO outlet. It allows you to define specific conditions or actions that, when met, will mark a subscriber as having achieved the goal of making a purchase. Once a subscriber reaches this goal, they can be automatically removed from the journey and will no longer receive any further emails. Secondly, 'Goals' also provides reporting on the success of the campaign. It allows you to track the number of subscribers who achieved the goal, providing valuable insights into the effectiveness of the campaign and the conversion rate. This reporting helps in evaluating the campaign's performance and making data-driven decisions for future campaigns. On the other hand, 'Decision Splits' is not the correct answer because it is used to create branches in the journey based on specific conditions, such as subscriber preferences or actions. It does not specifically address the requirement of stopping emails to subscribers who have made a purchase. Similarly, 'Exits' is not the correct answer as it is used to permanently remove subscribers from a journey based on a specific condition or action. While it could be used to remove subscribers who have made a purchase, it does not provide the reporting aspect that is required in the campaign. In summary, 'Goals' is the correct answer as it addresses both requirements of stopping sending emails to subscribers who made a purchase and providing reporting on the success of the campaign.
