A marketing user would like to send out a new whitepaper to their prospects and track who opens the PDF.

What Is the recommended way to accomplish this?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The recommended way to accomplish sending out a new whitepaper to prospects and tracking who opens the PDF is to upload the whitepaper PDF as a content file and link to it in the body of the email. A content file is a type of file that can be uploaded and stored in the Content Builder, which is a tool that allows marketers to create and manage content assets. A content file can be linked to in the body of an email, which allows prospects to access the file by clicking the link. By linking to a content file, marketers can also track who opens the PDF, as the link will generate a tracking code that records the open activity. Uploading the whitepaper PDF as a content block, attaching it to the email, or embedding it in the email are not recommended ways to accomplish sending out a new whitepaper to prospects and tracking who opens the PDF, as they either do not allow linking, do not allow tracking, or do not display properly.

But don't we need to track opens? So actually, linking seems more reliable.

Isn't attaching the file better for ensuring they get it? Like option C?

Or maybe option B. Linking to it in the body should allow tracking.

You know what they say, 'The link is mightier than the attachment.' Option B gets my vote. Simple and trackable, just the way I like it.

Ah, the age-old dilemma of email attachments vs. links. Option B is the clear winner here. Who needs another PDF clogging up their inbox?

I agree with Aretha. Option B is the way to go. Attaching the file can make the email too large and impact deliverability.
