1. Define the Buffalo Grove geography before judging performance
A local dashboard can become misleading when “Buffalo Grove” is treated as a complete market definition. Your firm may also serve clients elsewhere in those counties or across Illinois. Those are different geographic relationships and should not be combined casually. Before reviewing results, decide whether a location field means the person’s address, the matter’s venue, the service area named on a page, the caller’s stated location or another definition. Bosseo says the dashboard can show city data and asks which cities produce calls.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to demonstrate how city and case-type labels would be defined for your firm. Review Buffalo Grove, Cook County, Lake County and broader Illinois views separately if those areas matter to your practice. Do not approve a conclusion such as “Buffalo Grove is producing matters” until you know whether the number refers to calls, classified leads, signed matters or revenue.
