okay we're going to be creating a Google
Form and we're going to be using
something called branching which is
going to control which questions that
you see based on the answers that you
give to the questions let's act like
they just took a course of the first
questions we're just going to ask them
how they liked the course just to get
them started
this one is just kind of a warm-up intro
question and this won't be part of the
conditional flow so we're going to have
that be our first question in this
section but now we're going to ask a
multiple-choice question and the answer
to this is going to bring them to a
different place
we're going to make sure that it's
required and we'll fill out a couple of
options here so what type of course do
they want next
so I gave them two options here but I
want to give them an other option as
well but I don't want to use this
pre-configured other option because that
will just give them an empty box to type
into I want the other option to bring
them to a different place in the forum
so I'm going to just add one that says
other and then we'll come back to this
when we add the branching and we'll talk
about how this is going to lead them to
another spot we'll go down and delete
these other questions that were here
from the template and now we'll come
over to the right and we're going to
left click on add section and you'll see
below it says after section one right
now continue the next section is
selected as the default we'll leave that
here for a little bit until we build out
the rest of this form and then we're
going to come back and customize that so
I already know that the first choice is
going to bring them to this section if
they want time management courses
and the point of bringing them here is
to find out which course that they want
so we'll add a question and we'll just
add two courses that we happen to offer
using tasks or using the calendar they
want something else let's give them a
real other field here so we'll use the
one in blue that Google is suggesting
and they'll be able to type their answer
in there in this section is done that
we're going to add another section for
the Human Resources courses
and this will just be another multiple
choice
all right so now we have your top
question asking which type of course
then we filled out the two different
types we're going to use those to see
which people want our pre-configure
courses or they can type in another in
each category but if they picked other
at the very beginning it may be a
different category so we'll add another
section at the bottom
and we're going to make this one a short
answer because the point of this is to
collect other ideas that they may have
maybe if you see a lot of suggestions
for a similar type of course you can put
that together so come up choose a short
answer that'll get the user a text field
to type in what they want and then we'll
come down to the last section and this
is going to be the follow-up section
and really what you're looking to get
out of this forum is a way to follow up
on leads so what you want to do is you
want to ask them when you can contact
them if you get 100 responses you can
sort it by date and contact all the
people based on those dates that they
selected
and if you use the field type called
date it will give the user a date picker
and then that way their response will
give you a valid date so if they
misspelled a month or type in a day that
doesn't exist they can't do that when
you use this option so this will give
you a good date that comes through when
you look at your responses and then you
want a way to contact them and the best
way to do that is to come up to the gear
icon in the upper right hand corner and
just left click on collect email
addresses click Save if you don't want
to do it that way you can always just
add another field collect the phone
number street address whatever you want
but now we're ready to build the logic
into this form so after the first one
once they tell you what type of course
do you want next you need to select this
question left click on the three dots
and you want to go to a section based on
the answer so this drop down below is
going to take you somewhere just after
the entire section you don't want that
you need to be up here and for time
management you need to take them to time
management courses for Human Resources
human resources and for other you want
to take them down to the other so that
takes care of this first section if they
make their way to time management
courses let's activate this question
when you look at these if you were to
choose where to go for each one of these
questions it actually all be the same
place because you're ready to just bring
them down to the follow-up so for this
section you can select it from the
bottom and just bring them directly down
to follow-up in the route or what they
say same thing for Human Resources and
the same thing for other and then when
they come down the follow-up they're
going to be automatically at the end of
the forum and they'll click Submit so
this is a great way to give the
respondents to the survey a better
experience because they won't have to go
through questions that aren't relevant
for them and it will help to decrease
the amount of people that abandon your
form because they don't want to fill it
all out and if you want to see more
