Munchkin tracking and Unbounce

I've created a number of Unbounce landing pages and have installed the Munchkin tracking code on them. Unfortunately, it doesn't look as if the activity data from Munchkin is flowing back into the lead record. When a lead submits a form, the lead is added to the static list in Marketo reserved for Unbounce conversions, but none of those leads have Munchkin information (AnonymousIP, Original Referrer, etc) populated -- those fields are simply blank.

Unbounce support had advised that I needed to create hidden fields on the form and map them to Marketo fields, but that didn't seem to work, either.

Has anyone successfully gotten Munchkin to track on Unbounce landing pages? How did you get it to work?

I was *just* working on my HOWTO blog post on this -- literally cropping screenshots. It's going to take a couple days to go up, though. As with most such platforms, there's a lot of hand-waving about so-called integration, but no one at Unbounce really understands how to work it. It is quite possible, though.

Thanks, @Sanford Whiteman! I can't wait to read your post when it's done. It's driving me crazy to not have the activity data associated with the lead, and Unbounce has given me some conflicting advice -- none of which has worked so far.

I'm hoping to retarget known leads already in Marketo and send them to Unbounce landing pages. Is that working with the integration (i.e. is the Munchkin behaving as expected)?

I'll take any pointers you may have!

Unbounce's built-in integration is a joke.

Turn it off and build a custom (yet simple) integration and it'll actually work.

Would integrating with Salesforce be better? We can rely on the Salesforce sync to get it into Marketo if that's a better path.

No. That blog post is terrible and useless. Don't use that integration: it does not work for real-world Marketo use.

I wasn't telling anyone to use it, I was offering it as a resource. =)
