The verdict in three sentences
For a London office furniture manufacturer selling to facility managers and fit-out contractors, a conversion funnel falls into three market price tiers: 2,500 to 6,000 GBP for a simple funnel, 6,000 to 14,000 GBP with a catalogue and email follow-ups, and 14,000 to 30,000 GBP with CRM integration and lead scoring. On top come 900 to 2,500 GBP of monthly management and the ad budget, always billed separately. The middle tier pays back best for most manufacturers, because showroom visit bookings do the qualifying before sales gets involved.
The three-tier grid (2026 market ballpark)
Your buyers are facility and workplace managers moving into new space in the City, Shoreditch or King's Cross, and fit-out contractors and designers who specify furniture for their clients. The journey is long: compare, request a brochure, visit a showroom, then ask for a quote covering 40 or 400 workstations. A conversion funnel organises that journey from first visit to quote.
| Tier | Exact scope | Set-up time | Set-up price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Simple funnel | one landing page per key range, quote form, showroom booking button, conversion tracking | 2 to 3 weeks | 2,500 to 6,000 GBP |
| 2. Catalogue funnel | pages per range (desks, seating, meeting rooms, acoustics), gated PDF catalogue, 4 to 6 email sequence, online showroom booking with calendar | 4 to 6 weeks | 6,000 to 14,000 GBP |
| 3. CRM and scoring funnel | tier 2, plus configured CRM, scoring by project size and engagement, sales alerts, dashboards | 8 to 12 weeks | 14,000 to 30,000 GBP |
Tier 1 suits testing one range or segment, for example flexible workspace operators. Tier 2 saves the most sales time, since catalogue downloads and booked showroom visits filter buyers before the first call. Tier 3 makes sense beyond about 40 to 50 enquiries a month, when sales can no longer handle everything manually.
Recurring costs to add
| Recurring item | Tier 1 | Tier 2 | Tier 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Funnel management and optimisation | 900 to 1,200 GBP a month | 1,200 to 1,800 GBP a month | 1,800 to 2,500 GBP a month |
| Email platform | not needed | 50 to 250 GBP a month | included or 150 to 500 GBP a month |
| CRM licences | not needed | optional | 250 to 1,000 GBP a month depending on seats |
| Hosting and page maintenance | 50 to 130 GBP a month | 80 to 200 GBP a month | 130 to 330 GBP a month |
| Ad budget (Google, LinkedIn, Meta) | extra, 1,500 to 3,500 GBP a month advised | extra, 3,000 to 6,000 GBP | extra, 6,000 GBP and up |
| Recurring total excluding ads | 950 to 1,330 GBP | 1,330 to 2,250 GBP | 2,330 to 4,330 GBP |
An all-inclusive funnel quote that does not list these lines will surprise you by month two. Email follow-ups must also respect PECR and UK GDPR: marketing emails to corporate addresses are allowed with a clear opt-out, but sole traders and some partnerships are treated like individuals and need consent. Check the ICO guidance before you launch sequences.
What each tier delivers
| Indicator | Tier 1 | Tier 2 | Tier 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Qualified visitors a month | 800 to 1,500 | 1,500 to 3,000 | 3,000 to 6,000 |
| Page conversion rate | 2 to 4% | 4 to 6% | 5 to 8% |
| Enquiries, downloads or bookings | 16 to 60 | 60 to 180 | 150 to 480 |
| Share passed to sales | 100% | 30 to 40% after follow-ups | 20 to 30% after scoring |
| Sales-ready leads | 16 to 60 | 18 to 70 | 30 to 140 |
Conversion rises with tier because downloading a catalogue or booking a showroom visit is an easier step than requesting a quote cold.

Illustrative example: Tom, sales director at a 90-person office furniture manufacturer in London, picks tier 2 at 10,000 GBP of set-up, then 1,600 GBP of recurring costs and 4,000 GBP of ads a month. First-year cost: 10,000 + 12 x 5,600 = 77,200 GBP. With 2,000 qualified visitors a month at 5%, he gets 100 downloads and bookings, 35 of them passed to sales. If 10% of those sign an average project of 45,000 GBP, that is 3 to 4 projects a month, over 1.8 million GBP of annual revenue for 77,200 GBP invested.
FAQ
What does a simple conversion funnel cost in London?
Between 2,500 and 6,000 GBP as a 2026 estimate, for a landing page, form and conversion tracking. Add 900 to 1,200 GBP a month of management.

What conversion rate should we target?
Between 2 and 8% depending on tier and offer, as a 2026 estimate. A gated catalogue or showroom booking converts better than a direct quote request.
