How To Use Google Form To Create Your First Market Research Survey?


As a marketer, it is always important to understand customers' pain points and desires. It would be more responsible if we can understand what customer's needs and wants for a product or service before we launches them.

Therefore, market research is a very powerful method to collect relative information about customers' concerns, desires and contacts.

How to get all these market research done?

We just need to send out a survey, collect the information, analyze the results and build your products/services.

Google Form is a very simple and free tool to create a market research survey.


Recently, I would like to write a blog about how to loss weight after having baby. Before I write the content, I created a simple survey for new moms.

In the survey, I added some multiple choices questions such as:

  • Do you happy with your body now?
  • Have you read any books or blogs about weight loss?
  • Which way have you tried to loss weight?
The point to use multiple choices is to let moms feel relax and easy to answer the question. If the questions are too complex, they may not continue the survey.




I also added some "short answer" style questions. They allow moms to write their concerns about which part of body they want to make the change mostly? And What is the biggest challenges for them to loss weight?

By using this method, I can understand the pain points from moms, so I can have a clue about my content plan.


Next,  I sent out the survey to some mom groups and social media, then I received some responses. My job is now is to review and analyze the results.

Google Form makes things very easy. It automatically builds a survey report for you in a visual way. After I review the result, I can see 66.7% of moms are not happy with their body now. I feel sorry for them, but it is a good sign for me. It means I may have a large potential audiences to read my blog.


For the short answer questions, moms desire to loss weight on belly and to tight their legs. And the most challenges for them are time concern and lack of patient. Most of them don't like to workout at all.


My potential audiences are aged between 26 to 35 years old. Basically, they are all young or new moms who desire to change their body and make them looks better.

Based on the result, I can have a clear understanding what kind of problems I could solve for them. Therefore I can write a blog to introduce some simple home exercises with baby to motivate moms to workout without any pressure.

Starbucks: Three Main Benefits For Writing Customer Name On The Cup

Whenever I order a small Starbucks coffee, I am always asked "What's your first name?" by a cashier. Even I was the only person to order, they still asked my name. Not only Starbucks, now many other bubble tea brands such as Vivi, Coco, Gong Tea also start calling customer's names. Why does Starbucks write customer name on the cup? What're the benefits to do that? Image from writingelves.com Self-Promotion In the beginning, Starbucks wrote customer names because they received too many orders. Marking down names would prevent mistakes. Later on, Starbucks found that writing names do not only improve work efficiency but also increase brand awareness.   Sometimes (most times) Starbucks spell the wrong name. You think customers will get angry? Actually no. In contrast, people feel Starbucks is not only a coffee shop but also a coffee shop with its own personality.  Image From Memeguy Some customers also make fun with Starbucks. They come up with...

Pantene "Power of Grey" Campaign: Every Color Is Shining

Many of my girlfriends started to change their hair color. A new hair color brings a new look which makes them feel different.  I never color my hair because I love my black hair. If one day I get white hair, I might change the color because I don't want to look old. See, white or grey hair means old. It is a very common thought in society. What if someone was born in grey hair?  Pantene found that 80% of Brits have grey hair, but 40% cover them because they feel less confident with grey hair.  So, Pantene launched "Power of Grey" Campaign to encourage people to embrace their unique trait: grey hair.  Yes, grey hair is different, but they are also beautiful the way they are.  The new Pantene hair care product is special for grey hair and will make them shiner. "Power of Grey" campaign turns the negative perception of grey hair to a positive view. As the Katharine Newby Grant commented: "We're committed to continui...

Pampers "Love The Change" Ad Review: Good Story Always Comes From Real Life

Being a parent is exciting but also challenging. The new Pampers Ad "Love The Change" tells the true story of being new parents and how a baby changes our life. As a new parent, we may feel fear and worried when the baby throws up. We may be still awake in the late night to hold our baby to sleep. We may forget to bring some baby care supplies when we need it. We may search for our concerns online to get help. No matter how difficult to deal with every trouble, once the baby smile, all we could feel is happiness.  As long as we are together, we want to accompany our baby to change and grow up. A baby brings surprise, happiness, and a wonderful memory. When I see this ad, I feel touchable and real. I am a new mom, too. All these scenes in the Ad I have been through. I was afraid when my baby was crying; I woke up every two hours to feed my baby every night, and I also search for a lot of weird questions on Google. Instea...
