Learn how to build a freemium conversions trial funnel in Finmark

Updated over a week ago

Step 1: On the fX Variables Section start by building your Freemium to Paid Trial Users Funnel.


For this example, we used the following variables:

  • # Website Visitors: growing at 10% each month

  • % of Sign-Ups from Website: 10%

  • Total Freemium Trial Users

  • % of Freemium to Paid Conversion Rate: 7%

  • Sum of Freemium to Paid Subscribers

Our forecasted # of Website Visitors led to a 10% Freemium Sign Up Rate -> 7% Paid Trial Conversion for the next month since our Free Trial is for 30 days.


Step 1a: Enter Fixed Variables

Sign-Ups: 10% Sign Up from Website Visitors


% of Freemium to Paid Conversion Rate


Step 2a: Forecast # of Website Visitors with 20% month over month growth:


Next, we entered our initial number of Website Visitors and forecasted our Website Visitors Growth over time.

Formula: Custom.WebsiteVisitors[-1]+Custom.WebsiteVisitors[-1]*.10

Step 2b: Forecast Free Trial Sign-Ups from Website Visitors


Step 2c: Forecast Free Trial Conversions


Formula: Custom.FreeTrialSignUps[-1]*Custom.FreemiumToPaidConversion

Since we offer a 30-day trial, we started our freemium trial conversions in October.
