Questionnaire Flow & Key Metrics

When a respondent views your concept, they will go through the following flow:

1. Interaction & Open-Ended Feedback

Heatmaps: Respondents click on the exact areas of the product they like most and least, leaving a comment to explain why.

Key Takeout: An open-ended question: "Other than making you more or less interested in the product/service, what is the main thing that this product is trying to tell you?"

Likes and Dislikes: A prompt for respondents to type out what they liked and disliked about the concept overall.

Suggestions for Improvement: Respondents share open-ended ideas on how to improve the concept.

2. Core Metrics & Brand Impact

Overall Appeal: Measures general like or dislike of the concept on an 11-point scale.

Emotions: Respondents select which emotions the concept triggered, and at what intensity (low, mid, or high).

Brand Recall & Linkage: Respondents type in the brand they think the concept is for. The brand is then revealed, and they rate how well the concept fits the brand.

Messaging: Respondents select which pre-configured attributes/messages they associate most with the concept to ensure key benefits are cutting through.

Key Measures: Respondents rate the concept on an 11-point scale across four pillars: Relevancy, Uniqueness, Believability, and Brand Feeling (how it changed their perception of the brand).

3. Behavioral Change

Respondents rate how likely they are to engage in a specific activity on an 11-point scale. You will configure this by choosing one Action and one Noun from the platform.

The most up-to-date options are on the platform, but standard combinations include:

Action Options Noun Options
Connect with, Consider, Donate to, Download, Follow, Play, Purchase, Read about, Subscribe to, Use, Visit, Watch App, Brand, Brand's restaurant, Film/Movie, Game, Organization, Product, Service, Store, Show, Website

Best Practices

Keep it concise: Keep your concept brief and clear so respondents grasp the important details instantly without making assumptions.

The Golden Rule: Aim for the length and clarity of an Amazon product description.
