Marketo’s Marketing Suspended functionality for communication management

Being able to easily control and manage the suppression of contact records from receiving communications reduces risk and process, and creates a uniform approach to communication management.A system field within Marketo called ‘Marketing Suspended’ – through using Smart Campaigns –automatically supresses records from receiving certain or all communication types depending on pre-defined criteria.There are 2 common uses:

Lead Management

When records pass through certain stages of a pre-defined Lead Management process, it may not be appropriate for Marketing to continue to communicate to them.

Preference centre

Besides being able to alter preferences, the Marketing Suspended function allows individuals to set cool off periods from when they receive communications. Within the flow of a Smart Campaign, you can automatically suspend and unsuspend the record.
