A branding questionnaire covers the project basics, audience, where the identity must work, files to upload, and styles to avoid.
Brand identity design looks good in a mockup, but the real test comes later, when the logo gets printed, cut, stitched, and reused by people who weren’t in the room. The Branding Questionnaire asks the questions that stop surprises early, so the work starts with the constraints and the non-negotiables on the table. The form uses mossy green with Lora headings over Roboto body text, so the page reads like a spec you can actually follow, not a mood board.
The opening text explains what the form is collecting and what happens after submission, then the questions move from contact details into the brief. The form captures the brand name exactly as it should appear, a short description of what’s being sold and why it matters, and who the identity is for. The later prompts focus on where the identity must work and what to avoid, plus a file upload for any existing logos or brand assets.
- Branding Questionnaire and Brief Opens with a short note on what the form collects and what happens after the client submits it.
- Contact details Collects name and email, with an optional date for when finished work is needed for launch or print.
- Project details Gathers the brand name as it should appear, what the business sells, and who the primary audience is.
- Where it must work Asks where the identity needs to hold up in real use, so constraints show up before design starts.
- Files and guardrails Collects existing logos or brand files and notes on visual styles, colours, or uses to avoid.
Once the Branding Questionnaire is in your workspace, you publish it as one of your forms and collect answers and files in one place, then review the responses and follow up on anything that needs clarifying.
We went from spending hours on every proposal to creating fully customized ones in under 5 minutes. That's not an exaggeration - we timed it.

Branding Questionnaire and Brief | The opening text tells the client what the form collects and that you’ll review the submission and follow up if anything needs clarification. |
Your name | A required full-name field so the submission is tied to the right contact. |
Email address | A required email field for follow-ups and delivery communication. |

Project details | A short prompt that frames the brief as the essentials you need to begin brand identity design. |
Brand name (exact as it should appear) | A required text field for the exact brand name, so spelling and formatting don’t get guessed later. |

Who is your primary audience? | A required text field to pin down the primary audience the identity needs to speak to. |
Where must this identity work? | A required long-answer field to capture real-world contexts like print, web, packaging, or uniforms. |
