The Quiz Funnel Question Prompt Pack
Turn a fun click into a qualified, tagged contact your offer is already built for.
A quiz funnel does three things at once: it attracts clicks, segments your audience, and delivers a personalised recommendation that feels like advice, not advertising. These prompts give you the full architecture, from the opening hook to the results page copy, so you can build a quiz that tags every lead by problem, readiness, and fit before they ever book a call.

Section 1: Quiz Concept and Hook
Before you write a single question, you need a concept that earns the click. These prompts build the quiz title, the opening promise, and the angle that stops the scroll.
Quiz Title Generator
You are a conversion copywriter. I sell [WHAT YOU SELL] to [TARGET AUDIENCE, e.g. service business owners, B2B founders, ecommerce brand owners]. Write 10 quiz titles that will make my ideal client stop scrolling and want to take the quiz immediately. The titles must do three things: (1) promise a specific, useful result rather than just entertainment, (2) speak directly to a problem or ambition my audience already has, (3) feel like the quiz was built for them specifically. Avoid anything generic like 'What type of entrepreneur are you?' Focus on outcome-based titles tied to [THE CORE PROBLEM YOUR OFFER SOLVES, e.g. inconsistent lead flow, patchy content, manual workflows]. Format: list of 10 titles, each under 12 words, no punctuation at the end.
Opening Hook and Promise Copy
Write the intro copy for a quiz called '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]'. My audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE]. The quiz takes [NUMBER, e.g. 2-3] minutes and ends with a personalised result that tells them [WHAT THE RESULT REVEALS, e.g. exactly which type of lead gen strategy fits their business right now]. Write three versions of the intro copy. Each version must: (1) open with a specific situation or frustration my reader recognises from their own life, (2) explain what they will walk away knowing, in plain language, (3) include a single-line call to action that starts the quiz. Each version should be under 80 words. No em dashes. No curly quotes. No filler phrases like 'Are you ready to discover?' Just direct, warm, specific copy.
Segment Result Names
I am building a quiz for [TARGET AUDIENCE] that segments leads into [NUMBER, e.g. 3 or 4] types based on [WHAT YOU ARE SEGMENTING, e.g. their current lead gen maturity, their biggest content bottleneck, their AI readiness]. Generate [NUMBER] result persona names for my quiz. Each name must: (1) be memorable and specific, not generic like 'The Beginner' or 'The Expert', (2) feel flattering or at least neutral, never condescending, (3) hint at where they are now and where your offer takes them. Provide the name plus one sentence describing who this persona is. Format as a numbered list. My offer is [BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF YOUR OFFER OR SERVICE].
Section 2: Question Writing
Quiz questions do double duty. They feel like self-discovery for the person taking the quiz and collect segmentation data for you. These prompts produce questions that work on both levels.
Core Segmentation Questions
You are building a quiz called '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]' for [TARGET AUDIENCE]. The quiz must segment respondents into these result types: [LIST YOUR RESULT PERSONAS, e.g. The Scattered Starter, The Plateau Builder, The Scale-Ready Operator]. Write [NUMBER, e.g. 6-8] multiple-choice questions that reveal which result type each person belongs to. Rules: (1) each question must feel like natural self-reflection, not a test, (2) every answer option maps clearly to one of the result types without being obvious to the person answering, (3) no question should use jargon my audience would not already use themselves, (4) each question has exactly [NUMBER, e.g. 3 or 4] answer options. Format each question as: Question text, then answer options labelled A, B, C (and D if needed), then in brackets note which result type each answer maps to. Topic areas to cover: [LIST 3-5 TOPIC AREAS, e.g. current lead generation activity, biggest bottleneck, time spent on marketing, confidence level, what they have already tried].
Warm-Up and Trust Questions
My quiz for [TARGET AUDIENCE] needs 2-3 warm-up questions at the start that feel easy, build momentum, and start collecting useful data without making the person feel assessed. Write 3 warm-up questions with [NUMBER] answer options each. The questions should feel almost conversational, like a friendly consultant asking the first few things they always ask. They can reveal something about [WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW EARLY, e.g. business size, how long they have been in business, their primary goal right now]. Each answer option should be written in the first person so the respondent reads it as their own voice, for example 'I mostly rely on referrals' rather than 'Relies on referrals'. Do not use scales or ratings. Use situation-based answers only.
Readiness and Buying Intent Questions
Write 2 questions I can include in my quiz that reveal how ready a respondent is to invest in a solution right now, without asking them directly about budget or purchase intent. My audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE] and my offer is [YOUR OFFER]. The questions must feel like they are about the respondent's situation, not about their wallet. Good signals of readiness include: how much time they are spending on the problem, whether they have already tried to fix it, whether they are doing it alone or with help, and how much the problem is costing them in time or lost revenue. Write 2 questions with [NUMBER] answer options each. After each question, include a note explaining which answers signal high readiness and which signal low readiness, so I can use this for lead scoring.
One Decisive Question
Write one single question that, if answered honestly, tells me almost everything I need to know about where this lead is right now with [THE CORE PROBLEM YOUR OFFER SOLVES]. My audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE]. This question should feel like the most perceptive thing a smart consultant would ask in a discovery call. It should make the respondent think for a moment before answering. Provide the question with [NUMBER, e.g. 4] answer options. Then write a brief note for me (not shown to the respondent) explaining what each answer reveals about the lead and how it should influence the recommendation they receive.
Section 3: Results Page Copy
The results page is where a quiz becomes a sales tool. Most people write results copy that is vague praise. These prompts produce results pages that feel personally accurate and make the next step obvious.
Full Results Page for Each Persona
Write the results page copy for the '[RESULT PERSONA NAME]' segment of my quiz. My quiz is for [TARGET AUDIENCE] and my offer is [YOUR OFFER]. This persona is characterised by: [DESCRIBE THIS PERSONA IN 2-3 SENTENCES, e.g. they have been in business 2 plus years, they are getting some leads but inconsistently, they have tried ads or SEO before but not stuck with it]. The results page copy must include: (1) a one-line result headline that names the persona and makes them feel seen, not judged, (2) 3-4 sentences describing exactly where they are right now in a way that feels so accurate they wonder if you know them personally, (3) 2-3 sentences on what is holding this persona back specifically, written without blame or condescension, (4) a bridge paragraph explaining why the next step that works for other personas will not work for them, and what does work, (5) a clear, low-pressure call to action that leads to [YOUR NEXT STEP, e.g. a free strategy call, a lead magnet, a specific offer page]. Total length: 200-280 words. No em dashes. No fabricated stats. No urgency pressure tactics.
Personalisation Lines for Each Result
I want my quiz results to feel personally tailored, not templated. For the '[RESULT PERSONA NAME]' result in my quiz for [TARGET AUDIENCE], write 5 personalisation lines I can use at different points in the results page. Each line should name a specific behaviour, frustration, or situation this persona will recognise from their own experience. These lines are the ones that make someone say 'how did they know?' Examples of the pattern: 'You probably spend more time chasing leads than you do serving clients', 'You have a list but you have not emailed it in weeks because you are not sure what to say', 'You know roughly what is working but you cannot replicate it consistently'. Write 5 lines for my specific persona. My offer is [YOUR OFFER]. Base the lines on what you know about [TARGET AUDIENCE] who are at [DESCRIBE THIS PERSONA'S STAGE].
CTA Copy for Each Result Type
Write the call-to-action section for the '[RESULT PERSONA NAME]' results page in my quiz for [TARGET AUDIENCE]. The CTA must lead to [YOUR NEXT STEP AND URL OR ACTION, e.g. booking a free 30-minute strategy call at calendly.com/yourlink]. Write 3 versions of the CTA section. Each version includes: (1) a one-line headline for the CTA block, (2) 2-3 sentences explaining why this specific next step is the right one for someone in this persona's situation, (3) the button or link text. The tone should be warm and direct. No pressure. No fake urgency. No phrases like 'Do not miss out' or 'Limited spots'. The logic should make the CTA feel like the obvious next move for someone who just read their result and thought 'yes, that is me'. My offer is [YOUR OFFER].
Section 4: Email Follow-Up Sequence
The quiz does not close the lead. The follow-up does. These prompts build a short, segmented email sequence that sends the right message to each result type in the 48 hours after they complete the quiz.
Immediate Follow-Up Email (Sent Within Minutes)
Write the immediate follow-up email sent to someone who just completed my quiz and received the '[RESULT PERSONA NAME]' result. My quiz is '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]' and my audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE]. This email arrives within minutes of them finishing the quiz. It must: (1) open by referencing their specific result by name so they know this is not a generic email, (2) add one or two pieces of insight that were not in the results page, to reward them for giving their email address, (3) make a soft, natural mention of [YOUR OFFER OR NEXT STEP] without making the email feel like a sales email, (4) end with a question or a one-line thought that makes them want to reply or click. Subject line: write 3 options. Email body: under 200 words. Warm, direct, British-friendly tone. No em dashes. No curly quotes.
Day 2 Follow-Up Email
Write the Day 2 follow-up email for someone who received the '[RESULT PERSONA NAME]' quiz result from my quiz '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]'. My offer is [YOUR OFFER] and my audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE]. By Day 2, they have had time to sit with their result. This email should: (1) open by acknowledging the specific situation this persona is in, without repeating the results page word for word, (2) give them one concrete, actionable thing they can do this week to make progress on [THE CORE PROBLEM YOUR OFFER SOLVES], without giving away so much that they do not need you, (3) naturally introduce [YOUR OFFER OR NEXT STEP] as the faster or more reliable way to get there, (4) close with a clear, single call to action. Subject line: 3 options. Email body: under 220 words. Practical tone, not salesy.
Day 5 Re-Engagement Email
Write the Day 5 follow-up email for someone who received the '[RESULT PERSONA NAME]' quiz result but has not yet taken [YOUR NEXT STEP, e.g. booked a call, downloaded the resource, visited the offer page]. My quiz is '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]' and my audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE]. This email is the last in the short sequence. It should: (1) open with a brief, honest acknowledgement that you know inboxes are busy and this is the last email in this sequence, (2) restate the core insight from their quiz result in one fresh sentence they have not seen before, (3) make one final, clear case for [YOUR NEXT STEP] without pressure or false urgency, (4) give them a reason to reply even if they are not ready, such as a question or a lower-commitment alternative. Subject line: 3 options. Body: under 180 words. Warm close. Sign off as [YOUR FIRST NAME].
Section 5: Tagging and Segmentation Logic
A quiz is only as useful as what you do with the data. These prompts help you set up the tagging logic, the CRM instructions, and the internal notes your team needs to act on every lead well.
CRM Tagging Instructions
I have just built a quiz called '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]' that segments [TARGET AUDIENCE] into [NUMBER] result types: [LIST YOUR RESULT PERSONAS]. I use [YOUR CRM OR EMAIL PLATFORM, e.g. HubSpot, Kit, ActiveCampaign] to manage contacts. Write clear instructions for how to tag and segment every quiz completion automatically. Include: (1) the tag or property name to assign for each result type, (2) any lead score adjustment I should apply based on the readiness questions, (3) which email sequence or list to enrol each result type in, (4) what to flag for manual follow-up by my sales process or by me. Write this as a simple internal process document I can hand to a VA or set up myself. Plain language, numbered steps, no jargon. My next step offer is [YOUR OFFER OR NEXT STEP].
Lead Scoring Matrix
Based on my quiz '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]' for [TARGET AUDIENCE], build a simple lead scoring matrix I can use to prioritise which leads to follow up with personally versus which leads to let run through the automated email sequence. My result types are [LIST YOUR RESULT PERSONAS]. My readiness signals from the quiz include: [LIST THE 2-3 READINESS INDICATORS FROM YOUR QUESTIONS, e.g. they said they have already tried paid ads, they are spending more than 5 hours per week on lead gen, they are working alone with no team]. Build a scoring table with: (1) each result type, (2) the readiness signals that push a lead into high-priority, (3) the combination of result type plus readiness signals that means I should personally follow up within 24 hours, (4) the combination that means I let the email sequence run. Make it a simple table I can read in under two minutes.
Section 6: Quiz Promotion Copy
The best quiz in the world fails if nobody takes it. These prompts produce the social and email copy that drives traffic to the quiz without making it sound like a lead capture exercise.
Email to Your Existing List
Write an email to my existing list promoting my new quiz '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]'. My audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE] and the quiz is at [QUIZ URL]. The email must: (1) open with a specific observation or situation my reader will recognise from their own experience right now, not a generic statement about the industry, (2) explain what the quiz reveals and why it is worth 2-3 minutes of their time, in plain terms, (3) make it clear this is not a personality quiz for fun but a practical tool with a useful, personalised output, (4) include a single clear link to take the quiz. Subject line: 3 options. Email body: under 180 words. Warm, direct, British-friendly tone. Sign off as [YOUR NAME]. No em dashes. No curly quotes. No banned phrases like 'game-changer' or 'supercharge'.
Social Proof Prompt for Results Screenshots
I want to use social proof from people who have taken my quiz '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]' to drive more completions. Write 3 short social captions I can post alongside a screenshot of a quiz result, where the caption is written from the perspective of someone who has just completed the quiz and found it useful. These captions should feel authentic, not like testimonials written by a brand. They should mention a specific thing the person recognised in their result, not just say 'this was so accurate'. Each caption should be under 60 words. Include a call to action to take the quiz at [QUIZ URL]. My audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE]. Write in a warm, conversational tone appropriate for [PLATFORM, e.g. LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook].
Short-Form Video Script for Quiz Promotion
Write a 45-60 second video script I can record to promote my quiz '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]' on [PLATFORM, e.g. LinkedIn, Instagram Reels, TikTok]. My audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE]. The script must: (1) open with a specific frustration or question my viewer is already dealing with, so they feel called out in a good way within the first 5 seconds, (2) briefly explain what the quiz does and what they will find out, without over-explaining, (3) tell them to click the link to take it, with a specific reason why they will find it useful today. Write the script in spoken language, not written language. Short sentences. Contractions. Natural pauses marked with [pause]. No buzzwords. Total word count: 90-120 words. At the end, include a note on the one key visual or action I should show on camera while speaking.
Section 7: Technical Build Prompts
These prompts help you set up the quiz logic correctly, whether you are using a dedicated quiz tool or building it inside your existing funnel platform.
Quiz Logic and Scoring System
I am building a quiz called '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]' using [YOUR QUIZ PLATFORM, e.g. Interact, Typeform, ScoreApp, Thrive Quiz Builder]. The quiz has [NUMBER] questions and [NUMBER] result types: [LIST YOUR RESULT PERSONAS]. Write clear instructions for how to set up the scoring or branching logic so that each combination of answers routes to the correct result. Include: (1) whether to use a points-based system or conditional branching for my result types, with a brief explanation of which suits my quiz better, (2) a scoring table showing which answer options add points toward which result, or the branch conditions if using logic jumps, (3) what to do when a respondent scores equally across two result types, (4) how to handle the readiness questions separately from the segmentation questions so I can use both for tagging. Write this as step-by-step instructions for someone who has not built a quiz before.
Opt-In Gate Copy
My quiz '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]' requires an email address before showing the result. Write the opt-in gate copy that appears at the end of the questions, before the results page. My audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE]. The opt-in gate must: (1) feel like a natural next step, not a toll booth, (2) clearly tell the person what they are about to receive, not just say 'enter your email to see your result', (3) include a one-line reassurance about how I will use their email, without using the cliche 'no spam ever', (4) include the email field label and submit button text. Write 2 versions: one shorter (under 40 words above the form) and one slightly longer (under 70 words) that adds one more reason to complete the form. My offer or lead magnet that follows the quiz is [YOUR OFFER OR LEAD MAGNET].
Thank You Page Copy
Write the thank you page copy that appears after someone completes the opt-in gate in my quiz '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]'. This page appears for a moment before they reach their results, or it is the page they land on after the result if I am using email delivery. My audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE]. The page must: (1) confirm their result is on the way or coming up, (2) set a clear expectation for what happens next (they see the result now, or check their inbox, or both), (3) optionally invite them to share the quiz with one specific type of person in their network who would also find it useful, with a pre-written share message they can copy. Keep the page copy under 100 words total. Warm, direct tone. No over-congratulating them for taking a quiz.
Section 8: Iteration and Optimisation
Once the quiz is live, the prompts that matter most are the ones that help you read the data and make it better. These prompts turn quiz analytics into decisions.
Quiz Performance Audit
I have been running my quiz '[YOUR QUIZ TITLE]' for [TIMEFRAME, e.g. 4 weeks] and here are the results: [PASTE YOUR KEY METRICS, e.g. started: 420, completed: 180, completion rate: 43%, email opt-in rate: 71%, result distribution: Persona A 38%, Persona B 44%, Persona C 18%, click-through to next step: 12%]. Analyse these results and tell me: (1) which metric most needs attention and why, (2) what the result distribution tells me about my audience and whether it matches what I expected, (3) which question is most likely causing the drop-off if I have a low completion rate, and how to identify it, (4) one specific change I should test first to improve the click-through to my next step. Give me a prioritised, plain-language read on these numbers with one clear action to take this week. My offer is [YOUR OFFER].
Question Rewrite for Low-Completion Points
One of my quiz questions has a high drop-off rate. The question is: '[PASTE YOUR CURRENT QUESTION AND ANSWER OPTIONS]'. My quiz is for [TARGET AUDIENCE] and the quiz platform shows me that a significant number of people leave the quiz at this question. Rewrite this question so it is more compelling to answer and easier to relate to, while still serving its segmentation purpose. The question should map to the same result types as before. Provide 2 rewritten versions of the question with answer options. After each version, explain in one sentence why it is more likely to keep the reader engaged. Keep the language in plain spoken English, no jargon.
Split Test Prompt for Quiz Titles
I want to split test two versions of my quiz title to find which one drives more starts. My current quiz title is '[YOUR CURRENT TITLE]'. My audience is [TARGET AUDIENCE] and the quiz covers [TOPIC]. Write 3 alternative titles to test against my current one. Each alternative should take a meaningfully different angle: one focused on a specific outcome, one focused on a specific problem or frustration, one focused on curiosity or self-assessment. For each alternative, write one sentence explaining what type of person it will resonate with most and why it is different from my current title. Also recommend which of the 4 titles (including my current one) I should test first against the others, and why.
