How Was Your Experience Today? A Crash Course in Customer Surveys with Jason Zigelbaum from Zigpoll

Are customer surveys conversion killers, or are they the secret weapon to understanding your buyers? In today’s episode of the Shopify App Show, I chat with Jason Zigelbaum, the solopreneur behind ZigPoll—a leading customer survey app for Shopify. We dive deep into the psychology of why customers actually want to give feedback, the magic of the post-purchase touchpoint, and how even the most "boring" brands can build highly engaging surveys. Jason also shares behind-the-scenes insights on bootstrapping a SaaS product as a solo developer, how user feedback shaped ZigPoll's UX, and how AI is revolutionizing data analysis and referral attribution.
