1. Start with geographic definitions, not a population shortcut
The available Census record identifies Aurora city as a municipality in Lawrence County and reports a 2020–2024 ACS 5-year population estimate of 7,397. It does not show how many people search for legal services, which practice areas are active, where callers live, or whether a marketing channel produces matters. For an Aurora firm, that distinction should shape the dashboard’s fields. A city target, a county target, a service area and a caller’s actual location are not interchangeable. The dashboard page says Bosseo can show rankings by service-and-city target, case-type breakdowns and city data. Those claims make geographic naming a decision point, not proof of local performance.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how Aurora city, Lawrence County and any broader Missouri coverage would be represented. Agree in advance which geographic fields are descriptive, which are attribution fields and which are merely ranking targets. Require the review to distinguish measured activity from an estimate of eligible population.
