Funnel Charts: Definition, Uses, and Interpretation

What is a Funnel Chart?

A funnel chart is a specialized visualization that displays sequential data through progressively decreasing proportions. It's shaped like a funnel, with the first stage being the widest (representing 100% of the initial value) and each subsequent stage narrowing proportionally to the values they represent.

Common Uses of Funnel Charts

  • Sales processes and conversion rates
  • Website visitor flows and conversion funnels
  • Recruitment and hiring pipelines
  • Customer acquisition journeys
  • Project management stage progression

Interpreting Funnel Charts

When analyzing a funnel chart, consider the following:

  • Conversion rates between consecutive stages (calculated as percentage of previous stage)
  • Overall conversion rate (from first to last stage)
  • The steepness of the funnel's slope (indicating high or low drop-off rates)
  • Unusual patterns or bottlenecks where values decrease dramatically

Best Practices for Funnel Charts

  • Limit the number of stages to 5-7 for readability
  • Use a logical sequence that flows from top to bottom
  • Include conversion percentages between each stage
  • Consider using color to highlight stages with concerning drop-offs
  • Include total counts alongside percentages for context
  • When comparing multiple funnels, use consistent stage definitions
