Types of TestPinion Ask

Pinion Ask

Ask shoppers open-ended and structured survey questions about your product or listing, including pricing, comprehension, first impressions, and recall.

Pinion Ask

A Pinion Ask is a survey rather than a head-to-head. Use it when the answer isn't "which of these": what someone would pay, whether they understood the product, or what they remember after a glance.

It follows the same four steps as a Pinion Poll and draws on the same Pinion Poll credits.

Question types

Pinion Ask supports ten question types:

TypeUse it for
Short AnswerOpen-ended reactions in the shopper's own words
Single AnswerOne choice from a list
Multiple AnswerSeveral choices from a list
DropdownOne choice from a long list
PriceWhat someone would expect to pay
Price SensitivityWhere the price stops feeling reasonable
3 second testWhat a shopper recalls after a three-second glance
Listing BattleYour listing against up to two others
SkimmerWhat gets noticed when someone skims rather than reads
Blur TestWhat still reads when the detail is stripped out

The 3 second test and Blur Test are the two worth knowing about: both approximate how little attention a real shopper gives you, and both tend to be humbling.

This page is a draft. The wizard walkthrough is written; the question-type reference needs a pass to confirm which types are generally available and which are enabled per account.
