A Smarter Quiz Experience: Ancient + Brave's Revamp

Ancient + Brave recently revamped its quiz, turning it into a highly engaging, content-rich experience that deepens customer relationships and increases conversions.

Here’s what makes it stand out:

• The quiz opens with Jo Woodhurst, Director of Nutrition and Education (DipCNM mBANT CNHC), making it feel like a real conversation rather than a generic questionnaire.

• Every step is visually immersive and aligned with their identity, ensuring a seamless customer journey.

• The results page includes a video, providing valuable insights and educational content that helps shoppers make informed decisions.

The result? A more sophisticated, engaging, and high-converting quiz.
