Energy Drink Habits, Brand Choice & Pricing Survey
Measures how often people drink energy drinks, which brands and formats they choose, what drives that choice, and what they'd pay for a new product. Built for beverage brand and category teams, with an AI follow-up interview that reconstructs the real story behind a recent brand switch or purchase decision instead of relying on stated preference alone.

- (Replace with Brand D)
- Other brands
Now think about a new energy drink product. (Template note: replace with your own product name, size, or format before launching.)
- At what price would this energy drink be so cheap that you'd question its quality?
- At what price would this energy drink be a bargain — a great deal for the money?
- At what price would this energy drink start to feel expensive, though you'd still consider buying it?
- At what price would this energy drink be so expensive that you would not consider buying it at all?
How likely are you to recommend (Replace with Brand Name) to a friend or colleague?
Reconstruct the respondent's most recent occasion of choosing one energy drink brand over another, or switching away from their usual pick: what triggered it (price, availability, craving variety, health reasons, a recommendation), what alternatives they compared it to, and whether they plan to stick with the new choice. If they say they never switch, probe what specifically would have to change — price, formula, availability — for them to try something new, and anchor on their most recent actual purchase rather than general opinions.

Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.
Auto report
Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.
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 stated preference with an AI follow-up interview that reconstructs the respondent's actual most recent brand-switch or purchase occasion, not just what they claim to prefer
- Combines behavioral and attitudinal measures (frequency, brand/format usage, agreement matrix) with trade-off methods (MaxDiff on purchase drivers, constant sum on recent spend allocation, Van Westendorp pricing) in one flow
- Includes an NPS-style recommend question and standard demographic segmentation (age, gender, household income) so results can be cut by respondent type
- Opens and closes with plain-language chat messages that frame the survey and thank respondents, making the experience feel conversational rather than a cold form
Jotform
Energy drinks Form TemplateA static, drag-and-drop form template for collecting basic energy drink feedback or orders. It's built for quick deployment and customization within Jotform's form builder rather than for structured market research analysis. No mention of adaptive questioning or pricing methodology like Van Westendorp or MaxDiff.
What it does well
- Easy to customize using Jotform's drag-and-drop builder
- Likely integrates with Jotform's broader form ecosystem (payments, notifications, etc.)
Where it falls short
- Static question set with no adaptive AI follow-up to probe individual respondent behavior
- No indication of built-in pricing sensitivity (Van Westendorp) or trade-off (MaxDiff) question types
- No published methodology or automated per-response quality scoring
QuestionPro
Energy Drinks Survey Questions + Sample Questionnaire TemplateA sample questionnaire and question bank for energy drink research, positioned as a reference template within QuestionPro's survey platform. It covers standard consumption and brand-awareness questions but reads as a static question list rather than a fielding-ready adaptive interview. Good for researchers wanting example question wording to adapt manually.
What it does well
- Provides sample question wording specifically tailored to energy drink category research
- Backed by an established survey platform with broad distribution and analysis tools
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI follow-up or voice interview to reconstruct the story behind a specific purchase decision
- No transparent prompt methodology published for how questions are asked or scored
- Appears to be a static questionnaire rather than one combining behavioral, trade-off, and pricing methods in a single guided flow
