1. Put the Sandwich geography in the right place
Sandwich is recorded as a municipal town in Massachusetts, within Barnstable County. That distinction matters when you review attribution. A lead may identify with Sandwich, another Barnstable County community or a broader service area, while the page or channel that generated the inquiry may be different from the person’s location. Population does not establish how many people are searching for counsel, which practice areas are competitive or how many matters a firm can accept.
Recommended approach
Define the geographic fields you actually need before reviewing reports. Keep town, county and any broader Massachusetts service area separate. Then decide whether location should be recorded from the inquiry, the landing page, the intake response or another firm-approved source. Do not use the town’s population as a substitute for demand or lead data.
