While you can easily create an exit survey targeted at people who don't plan to purchase from you, trial your product, etc, - another tactic to employ is ask the people who just completed a purchase what compelled them to do so. Often times you will see a higher response rate from this group of people because they're already engaged with your brand.
This is a concept that our CEO, Sean Ellis, discusses in the "Golden questions" that reveal exactly why your visitors aren't converting webinar.
Survey Content
Possible questions to ask to help uncover this objective:
- "What's the one thing that nearly stopped you buying from us?"
- "What was your biggest fear or concern about using us?"
- "What was your biggest challenge, frustration or problem in finding our product/service online?"
- "Was there anything about this checkout process that we should improve?"
Recommended answer type: Text based answer
For this objective we strongly recommend not giving visitors a list of options. Reason being is this method can and will work against you by effectively leading the customer. We want to uncover the answers that we don't already know, and the best way to do this is to give your visitors the opportunity to tell you what they think.

Recommended targeting options
- Where should this survey appear?: The purchase confirmation page. If these pages are dynamic, you'll need to use a Regular Expression.
- Who should be prompted to take this survey?: All visitors. If your new purchases happen behind a login screen, take advantage of our identity feature and only focus on those who are "known".
- When should this survey be displayed?: Immediately after the page loads.
- How often should this survey be displayed?: Only show once per visitor, or continue showing until the visitor provides a response.
These types of questions are targeted at the same group as identify appeals of your product. We recommend running one or the other - not both at the same time.
