Matrix Show On Rows - Measure Pivot

Is there a way I can pivot by measures that are displayed 'on rows' in the matrix?

Here is the context.

I have 5-6 measures that calculate week by week how many sales leads flowed through the sales process, like below.  The database contains a timestamp for each stage which I have inactive relationships that I write measures for to count up the tallys. 

 

 Week 1Week 2Week 3
Stage 1 Counts 314
Stage 2 Counts 202
Stage 3 Counts 412

 

I now need to add a layer with lead stage counts by Source by week, and the requestors have asked for a format such that the Measures would be the pivot, like so:

 

  Week 1Week 2Week 3
Stage 1 Counts   
 Web210
 Email102
 MarketingEvent  002

 

I can't figure out a way to get this to work, I can get the Source as the Pivot but that looks fairly messy as it duplicates each set of measures for every marketing source and becomes cumbersome quickly.

Hi  @Anonymous ,

 

In my opinion, measures are not used for perspective, but are data for indicator aggregation. You can put measures on rows in a matrix in power Bi through the wonderful blog post written by Matt Allington, or try to carry out row column rotation in pivot column in power query
