Why quizzes work

A good quiz answers a question the visitor already has ('Which plan suits me?', 'What's my marketing bottleneck?'). The answers also tell you what each lead needs, so follow-up can be specific instead of generic.

Step-by-step build

  1. Pick a question your audience genuinely wants answered.
  2. Define 3-5 result types, each linked to a relevant recommendation.
  3. Write 5-8 quick questions that sort people into those results.
  4. Decide whether to show results immediately or ask for email first - and be transparent either way.
  5. Tag each lead by result and send a sequence written for that result.

Metrics to track

Should I require an email before showing results?
