Brand Pulse: Campaign Awareness & Recall Survey
Tracks unaided and aided awareness of a specific ad campaign, where people saw it, what stuck, and whether it moved them to act — for brand and media teams running always-on pulse checks. An AI follow-up interview digs into what respondents actually remember and why, surfacing the story behind the recall numbers.
Sample questions
A preview of what’s in the template. Every question is editable before you launch.
Before we show you anything specific: what brand, if any, comes to mind when you think of (Replace with product category, e.g., 'meal delivery apps')? (Template note: replace category before launching.)
In the last 30 days, have you seen or heard any advertising from (Replace with your brand name)?
- Yes, definitely
- Yes, I think so
- No
- Not sure
Where did you see or hear it? Select all that apply.
- TV
- Social media
- Online video (YouTube, streaming)
- Podcast/radio
- Outdoor/billboard
- In-store or at an event
- Search ads
- Friend or family mentioned it
Thinking about that advertising, how much do you agree with each statement?
- It was memorable
- It felt believable
- It felt relevant to me
- It stood out from other ads in this category
How clearly did the advertising communicate (Replace with the campaign's core message, e.g., 'faster delivery than competitors')?
Which of these, if any, did you do after seeing or hearing it?
- Visited the website
- Searched for the brand online
- Talked about it with someone
- Visited a store or location
- Made a purchase
- Followed the brand on social media
Here are elements often used in this kind of campaign. Which stands out most to you when you think back, and which stands out least?
- The tagline or slogan
- The music or sound
- The main visual or scene
- The spokesperson or characters
- The offer or promotion mentioned
- The tone/humor
- The product shown in use
Reconstruct exactly what the respondent remembers about the advertising: which specific scene, line, or moment stuck with them, and in their own words what they think the brand was trying to say. If they said they didn't notice it or aren't sure, probe what kind of advertising in this category *does* catch their attention instead. Anchor on any action they mentioned taking (or not taking) and ask what would have made them more likely to act.
How likely are you to consider (Replace with your brand name) the next time you're in the market for (Replace with product category)?
What is your age range?
- 18-24
- 25-34
- 35-44
- 45-54
- 55-64
- 65+
- Prefer not to say
How do you describe your gender?
- Woman
- Man
- Non-binary

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
- Combines unaided and aided awareness questions with channel attribution and a max-diff exercise, giving both quantitative recall metrics and comparative element ranking in one flow
- Includes an AI follow-up interview that reconstructs exactly what respondents remember about the ad — which scenes, lines, or images stuck — and probes why, surfacing narrative detail static surveys can't capture
- Pairs a matrix agreement block and message-clarity opinion scale with a behavioral action question, so recall, comprehension, and downstream action are all measured in the same instrument
- Closes with brand consideration and standard demographics, and every response (including the open-ended recall and follow-up interview) can be automatically scored for quality and rolled into a report
SurveyMonkey
Brand Pulse Survey: Campaign Awareness TemplateA directly comparable fielding-ready template covering campaign awareness and recall, built on SurveyMonkey's established survey infrastructure. It relies on fixed question sets rather than any adaptive follow-up, so all respondents are asked the identical script regardless of their answers. Good for quick deployment and benchmarking against SurveyMonkey's broader panel/analytics tools.
What it does well
- Ready-to-field template on a widely used survey platform
- Likely benefits from SurveyMonkey's built-in benchmarking and analytics tools
- Simple setup for teams already using SurveyMonkey
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI follow-up to probe why a respondent does or doesn't recall the campaign
- No voice interview option or guided screen-share tasks
- No published per-response quality scoring or prompt-level transparency
Jotform
Brand Awareness Survey Form TemplateA static, customizable form built on Jotform's general-purpose form builder rather than a research-specific interview tool. It's suited to basic brand-awareness data collection but doesn't specialize in campaign recall mechanics like channel attribution or message clarity scoring. Best viewed as a flexible form template rather than a purpose-built tracking instrument.
What it does well
- Highly customizable drag-and-drop form builder
- Easy integration with other Jotform workflow and payment tools
- Fast to duplicate and brand for simple data collection
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI interviewing — every respondent sees the same static questions
- No voice AI interview or screen-share task capability
- No automated quality scoring or AI-generated analysis of open-ended answers
SurveySparrow
Brand Awareness Survey TemplateA conversational-style survey template that presents questions one at a time for a more engaging respondent experience. It still follows a pre-set question script with branching logic rather than true adaptive probing based on response content. Reasonable for general brand-awareness tracking but not built around campaign-specific recall interviews.
What it does well
- Conversational one-question-at-a-time UI improves completion rates
- Supports basic skip logic for branching by answer
- Part of a broader CX platform with recurring survey/pulse features
Where it falls short
- Branching logic is pre-scripted, not adaptive AI follow-up that reacts to what a respondent actually says
- No voice AI interview option
- No transparent prompt methodology or automated quality scoring on responses
Typeform
Brand Awareness Survey TemplateA polished, conversational-feeling template known for strong visual design and one-question-per-screen flow. Logic jumps allow some branching, but the question set is still fixed and doesn't dynamically probe individual recall details. It's a strong general brand-awareness starting point rather than a campaign-tracking or interview-based instrument.
What it does well
- Well-regarded design and respondent experience
- Logic jump branching for basic personalization
- Widely used, easy to share and embed
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI interview to dig into specific ad recall or reasoning
- No voice interview or guided task/screen-share capability
- No automated per-response quality scoring or auto-generated analytical reports
