1. Define the geography before you judge performance
Whitinsville is recorded as a CDP in Worcester County, Massachusetts. A dashboard review should therefore distinguish Whitinsville from Worcester County, broader Massachusetts coverage and any metropolitan area your firm chooses to measure. Those are different geographic scopes. Bosseo’s public ROI Dashboard description includes tracked service-and-city targets, city data and rankings across a state. That makes geographic naming a practical measurement issue: a position associated with Whitinsville should not silently stand in for countywide or statewide visibility.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how a Whitinsville target is named, grouped and separated from Worcester County or other Massachusetts locations. Decide which geography belongs in each report, and record whether a number describes a ranking observation, a call location, a lead location or a matter location. Do not use the CDP’s population estimate to predict how many people will contact the firm.
