We\u2019ve all seen Buzzfeed-style quizzes<\/a> that promise to tell us which Friends character or Disney princess we have the most in common with, but pop culture <\/strong>doesn\u2019t work when it comes to creating a quiz for business<\/a>, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Actually, it does, and we have several pop culture quiz<\/strong> examples to prove it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s more opportunity to include pop culture references and trends than ever before, mostly due to popularized GIFs, viral videos, and digital media streaming services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While some pop culture trends are here today and gone tomorrow (like the infamous white and gold versus black and blue striped dress debate<\/a>), you can utilize other references that will work for the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is, if you\u2019re willing to think outside the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The secret to creating a successful pop culture quiz is to choose trends and references that fit your brand personality. Your quiz is meant to solve their problems or at least start the relationship with an engaging experience that also resonates with your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you decide which pop culture trends to include in your quiz and how much of it is enough? The first step is to look at other quiz examples to see what resonates most with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8 pop culture quizzes to inspire your own<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each of these Interact quizzes has a unique pop culture marketing strategy behind it, making it a great place to start for new quiz creators<\/a>. Which strategy is the right fit for you and your audience?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Should you choose a well-known trend that will immediately connect with your audience? Would it be better to choose celebrities and public figures that your audience gravitates toward? Maybe you\u2019d rather include pop culture references in one element of the quiz rather than the whole quiz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No matter what you choose, it\u2019s helpful to look at other examples from business owners who are already utilizing pop culture in their quizzes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which sassy slogan tee are you?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We like how Slightly Shirtee<\/a> incorporated pop culture marketing into nearly all of their quiz questions and answers<\/a>. As an eCommerce shop in a very saturated market, the team knew they had to somehow differentiate their product while giving their audience a list of personalized t-shirt recommendations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s how their sassy quiz<\/a> was born!<\/p>\n\n\n
