I wanted to help them figure out their style and how it can be woven into their everyday marketing materials.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"647\" src=\"https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image3-3.jpeg\" alt=\"image3 3\" class=\"wp-image-16246\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image3-3.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image3-3-300x202.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image3-3-768x518.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The quiz has also been a good tool for business owners who are DIY-ing their brand for the first time. Figuring out which design elements you gravitate toward is really important when you\u2019re launching a new brand. I like how the quiz has helped them while also working as a tool for well-established business owners, who may be a better fit for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliemariedesign.com\/lets-work-together\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">my brand design services<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I knew that <em>everyone<\/em> loves learning about themselves, so <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tryinteract.com\/blog\/quiz-result-landing-pages\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.tryinteract.com\/blog\/quiz-result-landing-pages\/\">creating a quiz<\/a> seemed to be a no-brainer. Also, I knew I needed to give quiz-takers an immense amount of value, so the quiz would be a feel-good solution for me, too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, the quiz effectively gives quiz-takers a little taste of how my<a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliemariedesign.com\/design-spirit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> design course<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliemariedesign.com\/lets-work-together\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">working with me<\/a> can help them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><em>Takeaway: If you can identify a key problem you can solve through a quiz, you\u2019re well on your way to creating a successful quiz.

I wanted to distill some design basics into an enjoyable quiz. I also needed the quiz to accurately define what my quiz-takers\u2019 overall style was, so that they\u2019d walk away with valuable information, no matter if they signed up for my email list or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of email marketing, I wanted to mainly use the quiz to guide people to my email funnel. That way, I could send them personalized emails to walk them through simple tips to improve their design and understand why design is important.

I chose the quiz topic based on the name of my course, so it made sense to link them together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To come up with my course\u2019s name proved to be a little difficult, I must admit! I brainstormed dozens of names until I came up with \u201cDesign Spirit.\u201d I liked it immediately because it captures people\u2019s attention and sounds unique. However, it doesn\u2019t tell people exactly what it is, so it makes them wonder what it <em>could<\/em> be without being confusing.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"385\" src=\"https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image14-11-1024x385.png\" alt=\"image14 11\" class=\"wp-image-16251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image14-11-1024x385.png 1024w, https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image14-11-300x113.png 300w, https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image14-11-768x289.png 768w, https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image14-11-1536x578.png 1536w, https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image14-11.png 1999w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>I ran the name past a few business friends and decided it was the right choice.

If so, you might not want to add it to your quiz title. If it\u2019s easy to tell what it is from a quick glance, then it might work for you. Still unsure?

The others focus more on my business and start introducing the course as a potentially good fit based on their result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, we don\u2019t start there. The first email I send quiz-takers gives them a brief overview of their quiz results and puts words to their ideal aesthetic.

While the workbook was a useful lead magnet in its own right, the quiz also creates a memorable experience for everyone who interacts with it. I found much more success with it, which made my decision that much easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also like that I can see more statistics behind how people engage with my quiz based on how they answer each question.

Right now, I include the quiz as my main CTA on <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/alliemariedesign\">Instagram<\/a>, and I receive messages about how helpful it\u2019s been.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image12-12-1024x340.png\" alt=\"image12 12\" class=\"wp-image-16259\" width=\"768\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image12-12-1024x340.png 1024w, https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image12-12-300x100.png 300w, https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image12-12-768x255.png 768w, https:\/\/tryinteract-blog.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/image12-12.png 1482w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>I might explore Instagram Reels to promote the quiz, but I\u2019d really like to play around more with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/alliemariedsgn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pinterest<\/a>. Since Pinterest is all about gaining inspiration and pinning visuals, it fits perfectly with my quiz.

You may think that\u2019s a lot, but sometimes people will miss your announcements.

You also want to balance fun details with valuable content, so your quiz is memorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you go into the quiz creation process already knowing what you\u2019ll give quiz-takers after taking the quiz, that\u2019s ideal. At times, I can be an over-communicator, so this has helped me pare down each option and keep it simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Set aside enough time to intentionally create your quiz. You can create it quickly, but it\u2019s best to give yourself some wiggle room so you can take purposeful action.
