1. Set the geographic boundary before judging performance
The dashboard’s geographic questions should match the firm’s actual service territory. Reedley is a city in Fresno County; those are not interchangeable labels for every reporting purpose. A firm may serve Reedley while also accepting matters elsewhere in Fresno County, but the dashboard should not silently treat a city, county, household, individual or wider California area as the same audience. Bosseo’s public ROI Dashboard text describes city data, rankings and keyword coverage, while also describing tracking across a state. That makes scope a decision to document, not a fact to assume.
Recommended approach
Ask for separate definitions for Reedley targets, Fresno County targets and any broader California targets. Decide whether the firm wants to compare locations, practice areas or both. Do not use Reedley’s population estimate as a forecast of calls or cases. Instead, use it to confirm that the named municipality is the intended geographic unit and then assess actual dashboard signals after the measurement definitions are approved.
