Data Points

Define your chart’s journey: Start Value
  • Current state or baseline
  • Can use variables: {{current-weight}}
  • Sets emotional starting point
End Value
  • Goal or target state
  • Shows achievable outcome
Date Range
  • Time period for transformation
  • Today to future date
  • Creates urgency and realistic timeline

Visual Elements

Badges Add context at specific points:
Start: "Today: {{weight}} lbs"
End: "Goal: {{target-weight}} lbs"
Badges support variables for personalization. Animation Duration Chart draws itself on screen:
  • 1000ms - Quick reveal
  • 2000ms - Dramatic build
  • 3000ms - Slow emphasis
Longer animations (2-3 seconds) create anticipation and give users time to process the visualization.

Creating Emotional Impact

The Progress Principle

Charts leverage psychological principles:
  1. Visualization - Seeing the journey makes it feel achievable
  2. Commitment - Imagining success increases investment
  3. Gap Awareness - Shows distance between current and desired state
  4. Social Proof - Implies others have succeeded

Personalization Strategy

Most effective approach:
1

Collect Current State

Use Text Input or Options: “What’s your current weight?”
2

Gather Goal

“What’s your target weight?”
3

Show Personalized Chart

Chart from {{current}} to {{target}} “Your 90-day transformation”
4

Present Offer

“Start your journey today” Checkout or Plan Picker

  • Show realistic timelines

Design Best Practices

Color Psychology

  • Blue - Trust, stability, calm
  • Orange - Energy, enthusiasm
  • Purple - Transformation, premium

Visual Hierarchy

  1. Chart dominates the screen
  2. Clear start/end labels
  3. Supporting text below
  4. CTA button prominent

Animation Timing

  • Trigger on scroll into view
  • Not too fast (loses impact)
  • Not too slow (loses attention)
  • Sync with other animations

Testing Variables

A/B test these elements:
  1. Chart type - Line vs Area
  2. Animation speed - 1s vs 3s
  3. Personalization - Generic vs Custom
  4. Timeline - 30 vs 60 vs 90 days
  5. Badge text - Different messaging

Troubleshooting

Conversion Impact

Charts increase conversion by:
  • Visualization: +15-20% when personalized
  • Commitment: +10-15% emotional investment
  • Credibility: +5-10% with realistic progress
Charts work best in the middle of funnels, after collecting user data but before presenting offers.
