Native speaker’s answer
Rebecca
A "sales funnel" is a business term. It refers to every step taken by a person in order to become a customer. In this case, the speaker has used this term to compare how having a business is similar to finding a date on a dating app. Just like a potential customer has to take certain steps to become a customer, a potential date has to meet certain criteria to get a response from her. Ex: A sales funnel consists of multiple steps. Ex: A sales funnel moves from top to bottom.
