1. Start with the geographic relationship, not a population forecast
Robinson township is in Ottawa County, Michigan. A firm may serve people in Robinson while also handling matters from elsewhere in the county or from a broader service area. Those geographic relationships should remain distinct in reporting. The Census population estimate can help confirm that Robinson belongs in the firm’s service-area discussion, but it cannot establish how many people need legal help, how many search for an attorney, or how many will contact your office. Lead Attribution gives you a way to examine actual journeys instead of treating population as a proxy for demand.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to define how Robinson, Ottawa County, and any additional service areas will appear in journey-level and roll-up reporting. Decide whether a geographic label should describe the visitor’s landing page, the person’s matter location, the firm’s target area, or another field. Do not treat those categories as interchangeable.
