Formula Used

Lead to Customer Rate (%) = (Customers Won ÷ Total Leads) × 100
Lead to Qualified Rate (%) = (Qualified Leads ÷ Total Leads) × 100
Qualified to Opportunity Rate (%) = (Sales Opportunities ÷ Qualified Leads) × 100
Opportunity to Proposal Rate (%) = (Proposals Sent ÷ Sales Opportunities) × 100
Proposal Win Rate (%) = (Customers Won ÷ Proposals Sent) × 100
Cost per Lead = Marketing Spend ÷ Total Leads
Cost per Customer = Marketing Spend ÷ Customers Won
Revenue per Lead = Revenue ÷ Total Leads
Revenue per Customer = Revenue ÷ Customers Won
ROAS = Revenue ÷ Marketing Spend
Forecast Customers at Target = Target Leads × (Target Conversion Rate ÷ 100)

When a denominator is zero, the calculator safely returns zero for that metric.

FAQs

1) What does lead to customer rate measure?

It shows the percentage of total leads that become paying customers. This helps you evaluate overall funnel efficiency from initial interest to final conversion.

2) Why track qualified leads separately?

Qualified leads show how well your lead screening works. Comparing qualified leads with customers helps you see whether the issue is lead quality or sales execution.

3) Is a higher rate always better?

Usually yes, but context matters. A higher rate with tiny volume may produce less revenue than a moderate rate with stronger lead flow and better economics.

4) What if my customers exceed proposals?

The calculator still runs, but it displays a warning. That pattern often means your data came from different systems, periods, or attribution rules.

5) What does cost per customer tell me?

It estimates how much spend was needed to acquire one customer. Lower values usually indicate better efficiency, assuming lead quality and revenue stay healthy.

6) How is forecast customers at target calculated?

It multiplies your target lead count by your selected target conversion rate. This gives a quick planning estimate for expected customers under that scenario.

7) Can I use this for B2B and B2C campaigns?

Yes. The structure works for both models because it focuses on funnel counts, spend, and revenue. Adjust the stage names internally to match your process.

8) Why export to CSV or PDF?

CSV is useful for spreadsheet analysis and dashboards. PDF is better for sharing snapshots with managers, clients, or team members during reporting reviews.
