How to pick a quiz idea that gets clients
A good coaching quiz idea starts from a problem your prospect would name themselves, promises a personalized answer to it, and ends on a results page that leads naturally to your offer. Pick an angle where the result both feels genuinely useful and reveals whether the person is a fit for your coaching.

Turn any idea into a lead-generating quiz

- Pick a type: scorecard to diagnose, personality to segment, product-match to route.
- Write 6–10 questions that personalize the result and qualify the lead.
- Capture the email right before a results page that reads like a mini-consultation.
- End with one clear call to action, and follow up differently by result.
