1. Start with the Ridgecrest geography you actually want to measure
That distinction matters when you review location reporting. A dashboard question such as “Which cities produce calls?” needs a defined geographic field: the location named in a search target, the caller’s location, the page associated with a lead, the matter’s venue, or another agreed value. These are not interchangeable. Ridgecrest, Kern County and California represent different scopes, and a household or individual is not the same geographic unit as a municipality. Bosseo’s public ROI Dashboard page says its reporting can show city data, rankings and leads by case type. Before relying on that view, ask what “city” means in each report and whether the same definition is used from first contact through signed matter.
Recommended approach
Bring a written geography policy to the consultation. Decide whether Ridgecrest is a target location, a caller location, a service area, a matter location or several separate fields.
