collected first in raw data
fields and then
combouned with the show

Different show reviews are
packed into one field.

moves to marketing
database. The web
developers have a open
interface that show the
review information.
Logic in Marketo: Write the previous
information that has been in the field.
After that write the show review
source (name of the show) and then
the comment or the number of strars
or the nickname that the customer
has given.
