Import Marketo Static Lists to RollWorks

Import Marketo Static Contact Lists

Before you start it is important to know the following requirements:

  • Ensure your RollWorks account is connected to Marketo. Click here to learn how to complete the initial integration setup.
  • If you have Smart Lists in Marketo that you wish to import in RollWorks, you'll need to run a batch Smart Campaign to create a Static List from a Smart List and keep them synced on a regular cadence. Click here for a step-by-step guide to import Marketo Smart Lists to RollWorks.

We recommend a minimum of 1000 unique email addresses

We strongly suggest that your contact lists synced from Marketo have at least 1,000 unique email addresses for optimal performance. Even though you may be able to run a contact targeting campaign with 100 unique emails that match a cookie this audience is too small to yield optimal reach and ad performance. πŸ”Ž Learn more about how Contact Audiences work here.

Once connected, follow the instructions below to sync over your static contact lists:

Marketo Contact Lists FAQ

What is the minimum amount of emails required to run a Marketo-based contact targeting campaign?

We strongly suggest that your contact lists synced from Marketo have at least 1,000 unique email addresses for optimal performance. Even though you may be able to run a contact-targeting campaign with 100 unique emails that match a cookie this audience is too small to yield optimal
reach and ad performance.

 

Why is the contact list size in RollWorks different than the list size in Marketo? 

The contact list size that surfaces in RollWorks has passed an email validation process. It’s possible that your Marketo Contact List has some invalid emails, for example, an email format not recognized, in that event RollWorks will not ingest the contact and the resulting imported contact list size in RollWorks will be smaller than the source contact list in Marketo.
