1. Define what “Streator” means before you judge performance
A location filter is not self-explanatory. Your firm may want to examine Streator separately from county activity, but those are different geographic views. A dashboard should not quietly combine them and present the result as Streator performance. The same caution applies to households, individuals and geographic areas: they are not interchangeable measures. Bosseo’s public ROI Dashboard page describes city and case-type data as decision inputs, including questions about which cities produce calls. In a consultation, ask how a Streator view would be defined, what county relationships would be shown, and whether a displayed result refers to a city, a county or another area.
Recommended approach
Request a written geographic definition for every Streator view. Treat Streator, LaSalle County and Livingston County as separate labels unless the firm deliberately approves a combined analysis.
