Define the geography before reading the numbers
A location label can hide an important distinction. Rushville is a municipality in Rush County, Indiana, while a firm may serve people in the city, elsewhere in the county, or outside that county. For an ROI Dashboard, the first decision is therefore geographic definition: which city, county, service area or other location labels should be attached to a ranking, call, lead or matter. Bosseo’s public ROI Dashboard page describes city data, keyword tracking and lead attribution. Ask how those labels would be defined for your firm before treating a location trend as a budget signal.
Recommended approach
Write down the geographic scope for each reportable activity. During the review, ask to see how a Rushville activity would be distinguished from an activity elsewhere in Rush County and how the dashboard would display a broader Indiana target if you use one.
