Win-Loss Survey template
Win-loss analysis usually dies at the data-collection step — this survey template fixes that with seven honest questions: the outcome, a ranking of decision drivers, a rating of the sales process itself, and one open question about what you could have done differently. A skip rule asks which competitor won only when the respondent actually chose another provider.

What’s inside
The questions this template ships with — rename, reorder, or delete any of them in the builder.
When to use this template
- B2B sales teams closing the loop on every decided deal, win or lose, while the decision is fresh
- A startup losing deals to the same incumbent and needing ranked evidence of why — price, features, support, or security
- Sales leadership separating product losses from process losses using the sales-process rating
- Quarterly win-loss programs where consistent question wording matters more than any single response
Tips to get more from it
- The competitor question only appears when someone answers "We chose another provider" — winners and no-decision respondents skip it. The rule is editable in the Logic tab.
- The ranking field (price, features, ease of use, support, security) yields ordered data you can aggregate — noticeably sharper than a pick-many checkbox.
- The rating question deliberately scopes to the sales process, not the product; its helper text spells that out so respondents don't conflate the two.
- The welcome screen promises two minutes and asks for total honesty. Send the form within a week of the decision, before memory fades and politeness sets in.
Questions people ask
When should a win-loss survey be sent?
Within days of the decision, in both directions — wins teach as much as losses. This template's outcome question handles won, lost, and no-decision in a single form.
Will buyers actually answer a win-loss survey?
Short ones, yes — especially at seven questions with a two-minute promise. Response rates rise further when a human sends the link with a personal note rather than an automated blast.
Can I export win-loss responses for analysis?
Yes, all responses export as CSV from the dashboard, including the ranking order and ratings, so you can aggregate decision drivers across quarters.
