YOUR DRAFTING BRIEF

Draft a questionnaire to help with this goal: Find obstacles when choosing a replacement. Include neutral questions and allow people to skip situations they did not experience. Do not assume: Do not promise exchanges outside verified policies.

An example brief you can adapt. This preview does not call an AI service.

A useful starting point

Questions to understand the actual experience.

Find obstacles when choosing a replacement. Use the prompts relevant to your audience and allow people to skip situations they did not encounter. Keep response handling consistent with what you explain in the invitation.

If nothing was unclear or difficult, say so. Skip questions about steps you did not experience; use not applicable where appropriate.

QUESTION 01

Which exchange condition was unclear?

An unclear exchange condition identifies a rule customers cannot apply to their request. Refer to verified current guidance rather than deciding eligibility from survey responses.

QUESTION 02

How did you identify a suitable replacement?

The selection method reveals whether customers can compare replacement attributes or applicable conditions. Clarify verified options through official guidance, without assuming a suggested item is suitable or that an exchange request will be accepted.

QUESTION 03

What status information was missing?

Missing status information identifies how customers need to understand progress or remaining confirmation. Distinguish a request from accepted replacement availability without promising approval.

Examples to adapt, rather than a validated research instrument.

Read the answers carefully

Keep the conclusion within the evidence.

Do not promise exchanges outside verified policies.

Customers cannot tell when replacement availability is confirmed. This is a synthetic example, not a customer result. Do not promise exchanges outside verified policies.

Before you send it

Check what your wording assumes.

BEFORE / LEADING

Would you agree that everything about item exchange experience was clear and easy?

AFTER / CONTEXTUAL

Which exchange condition was unclear?

The first wording combines an assumed positive outcome with two different judgments. The revised prompt asks about a specific experience and permits an inconvenient or uncertain answer.

A worked interpretation example

From a comment to a practical next step.

Illustrative scenario. These are not customer results.

01 / OBSERVE

Keep the finding specific

Customers cannot tell when replacement availability is confirmed.

02 / INVESTIGATE

Choose an action to test

Explain the confirmation and next-step process.

03 / FOLLOW UP

Check the experience again

After trying the change, repeat “Which exchange condition was unclear?” with people who experienced it. Check whether they still describe the original issue: customers cannot tell when replacement availability is confirmed. Compare explanations and sample context, rather than claiming the change caused an improvement.

From question to next step

Make the feedback useful.

01

Set the decision

Start with the decision: Find obstacles when choosing a replacement.

02

Invite relevant voices

Invite people with relevant experience. Ask after someone has encountered the situation described in “Which exchange condition was unclear?”, while they can still recall the details. For material testing, show the actual draft first; for planning, ask before the next relevant activity.

03

Choose an action

Explain the confirmation and next-step process.

Choose the response format

Make room for the explanation.

Suggested formats for this example questionnaire
QuestionSuggested formatWhat to preserve
Which exchange condition was unclear?Optional short textRetain the specific point or condition described; avoid replacing it with an unexplained rating.
How did you identify a suitable replacement?Optional written explanationKeep context that distinguishes different experiences. Do not promise exchanges outside verified policies.
What status information was missing?Optional improvement suggestionKeep the suggested change separate from whether it has been tested. Explain the confirmation and next-step process.

Make questions optional where appropriate. If you add a rating scale, label its endpoints, keep one idea per question, and retain a follow-up for reasons. These examples are not a validated measurement instrument.

Before you send it

Questions, answered.

Who should receive this questionnaire?

Shoppers who attempted the described purchasing task. Ask only about steps each person encountered; do not treat a voluntary response sample as representative.

When should I ask these questions?

Ask after someone has encountered the situation described in “Which exchange condition was unclear?”, while they can still recall the details. For material testing, show the actual draft first; for planning, ask before the next relevant activity.

What should I investigate in the answers?

Customers cannot tell when replacement availability is confirmed. This is an illustrative pattern to look for, not a claim about your respondents. Do not promise exchanges outside verified policies.

What would a practical follow-up look like?

Explain the confirmation and next-step process. After trying the change, repeat “Which exchange condition was unclear?” with people who experienced it. Check whether they still describe the original issue: customers cannot tell when replacement availability is confirmed. Compare explanations and sample context, rather than claiming the change caused an improvement.

How should I ask “How did you identify a suitable replacement?”?

The selection method reveals whether customers can compare replacement attributes or applicable conditions. Clarify verified options through official guidance, without assuming a suggested item is suitable or that an exchange request will be accepted. Use an optional written explanation when predefined choices would hide relevant context.
