1. Start with Sharon’s geography, not an assumed market
The Census record identifies Sharon as a municipal town in Massachusetts and places it in Norfolk County. It does not establish a service-area boundary for your practice. A firm may serve Sharon alone, several Norfolk County communities, Massachusetts more broadly, or a combination of those areas. Those choices materially affect what a dashboard should measure. A city or town label, a county label and a statewide target are not interchangeable. The dashboard page describes tracking for service-and-city targets and asks which cities produce calls. That makes geographic definitions an important pre-purchase issue for a Sharon firm: decide whether “Sharon” means a page target, a caller’s stated location, a matter venue, or another field.
Recommended approach
Bring a written geography policy to the consultation. Ask Bosseo to show how Sharon, Norfolk County and any Massachusetts-wide targets would be represented separately, and do not treat the town’s population estimate as a forecast of cases or marketing return.
