Brand Identity & Positioning Consultation Survey
Assesses how clearly a business can articulate what makes its brand different, how consistent that identity feels across touchpoints, and where a rebrand or refresh should focus first. Built for brand consultants and marketing leads kicking off an engagement. An AI follow-up interview digs into the exact moment differentiation breaks down, surfacing concrete examples instead of vague brand talk.

Highlight the words or phrases in your current brand statement below that feel most true to who you are today. Leave unmarked anything that feels outdated or aspirational rather than real.
(Replace with your current tagline, mission statement, or brand promise.) (Template note: replace with your own brand statement before launching.)
If you had to describe your brand in three words, what would they be?
Explore the gap between how clearly the respondent believes they can articulate their brand's differentiation and how often customers seem confused about what the company offers. Ask for a specific recent example of trying to explain the brand to a prospect or new hire, what words they actually used, and where the explanation broke down. If they rated differentiation clarity high but also reported frequent confusion, probe that contradiction directly; if they can't produce a concrete example, probe what's stopping them from having one.

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Goes beyond static questions with an AI follow-up interview that digs into the exact moment differentiation breaks down, pushing for concrete examples instead of generic brand adjectives
- Combines quantitative brand-clarity measures (opinion scale, rating, matrix, max-diff, constant-sum budget allocation) with qualitative capture (text highlight on the current brand statement, three-word description) for a fuller diagnostic picture
- Segments responses by role and company size so consultants can see how brand clarity differs between leadership and staff before the engagement starts
- Produces an auto-generated report from the same intake, so consultants walk into the audit with synthesized findings rather than a raw spreadsheet of answers
SurveySparrow
Branding Consultation Form TemplateA fielding-ready conversational form aimed at capturing basic branding consultation intake. It covers standard brand questions in SurveySparrow's chat-style UI but relies on fixed questions rather than probing follow-ups. Good for lightweight intake, less suited to surfacing specific breakdowns in brand messaging.
What it does well
- Conversational, chat-style form format that's quick for respondents to complete
- Purpose-built branding consultation template, not a repurposed generic form
- Part of a broader survey platform with standard reporting/dashboard features
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI follow-up interview — every respondent gets the same static questions regardless of their answers
- No mention of guided screen-share tasks or per-response quality scoring
- No published prompt-level methodology, so how questions probe for depth (if at all) isn't transparent
Typeform
Branding Consultation Form TemplateA polished, fielding-ready branding intake form built on Typeform's one-question-at-a-time design. It's designed for a smooth respondent experience but, like most form builders, asks the same fixed question set to every respondent. It doesn't include a mechanism to chase down specifics when brand answers are vague.
What it does well
- Clean, high-conversion one-question-at-a-time UX that Typeform is known for
- Easy to brand and customize visually to match a consultant's own presentation
- Simple to deploy for quick client intake without technical setup
Where it falls short
- Static question flow with no adaptive AI follow-up interview to dig into specific examples of brand confusion
- No voice AI interview or guided screen-share task option
- No automated per-response quality scoring or transparent prompt methodology
