Marketo Engage Assessment
A structured Marketo Engage assessment focused on clarity and performance.
The Problem
Complex Marketo instances are hard to trust and harder to scale
As Marketo Engage instances grow more complex, they become harder to manage, trust, and optimize. Small configuration decisions compound over time, creating blind spots in reporting, inconsistent execution, and fragile processes.
Without a clear baseline, teams struggle to understand what is actually working and where improvements will have the greatest impact.
- Unexpected departures and knowledge loss
- Reduced headcount with increasing demand
- Inconsistent execution across programs
- Growing risk in data quality and reporting
The Solution
A structured Marketo Engage assessment led by senior operators
Attributa’s Marketo Engage Assessment provides a structured, unbiased review of your instance, led by practitioners who build and operate complex marketing systems every day.
We evaluate configuration, data flows, program structure, and operational hygiene to establish a clear baseline. From there, we identify what is working, what is creating risk, and what should be addressed first based on business impact.
This assessment replaces assumptions with clarity and gives your team a reliable foundation to improve execution with confidence, led by practitioners who actively build and operate complex systems through our Marketo Engage and Marketo Measure implementation services.
Assessment Focus Areas
Our assessment examines the core operational, technical, and architectural components of your Marketo Engage instance to identify gaps, risks, and improvement opportunities.
Additional areas reviewed may include forms, landing pages, email strategy, and system integrations based on your environment.
What We Evaluate
At the end of the assessment, you’ll have a clear understanding of where your Marketo Engage instance is strong, where it’s creating risk, and which changes will have the greatest impact.

What’s Included in the Assessment
A structured approach that ensures thorough analysis and actionable outcomes.
Discovery
We begin with a series of meetings where you walk us through a guided tour of your Marketo Engage instance. This helps us understand your setup, the fields you use, and allows us to ask targeted questions.
Deep Dive Analysis
Once discovery is complete, we conduct a thorough deep dive into all focus areas. We examine every aspect of your instance to identify strengths, gaps, and opportunities.
Findings Review
We create a comprehensive findings document outlining all observations. This is reviewed collaboratively to ensure accuracy and completeness before finalizing.
Recommendations Roadmap
Based on final findings, we deliver a detailed recommendations document—your roadmap for the year. It outlines what needs to happen, in what order, and with what priority.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Marketo Engage Assessment
How long does a Marketo Engage assessment take?
Most Marketo Engage assessments are completed within 2 to 3 weeks, depending on the size and complexity of your instance. This includes discovery, hands-on review, analysis, and a findings walkthrough. Timelines are confirmed up front so there are no surprises.
Will this assessment disrupt our live campaigns?
No. The assessment is non-invasive and performed alongside your active marketing operations. We review configuration, data flows, and program structure without interrupting live campaigns or reporting.
Is this only for organizations using Marketo Engage?
This service is designed specifically for Marketo Engage, but it also evaluates how Marketo connects to your broader ecosystem, including CRM, data enrichment tools, and reporting layers. If you need a broader view across platforms, we may recommend a Go-To-Market Effectiveness Analysis as a next step.
What do we actually receive at the end of the assessment?
You receive a clear, prioritized roadmap, including configuration gaps, quick wins, and longer-term recommendations. The output is designed for action, not documentation, so your team knows exactly what to fix, why it matters, and what to tackle first.
Can Attributa help implement the recommendations?
Yes. Many clients engage us to support execution after the assessment, either through Campaign Operations Excellence or targeted implementation support. The assessment stands on its own, but implementation is available if you want help moving faster.
