1. Define the Plover geography before you read a number
Plover is a Wisconsin municipality recorded in Portage County. That relationship matters when your firm decides what a location label means. A dashboard can be useful only if the firm distinguishes Plover from Portage County, other Wisconsin places and any broader service area it chooses to measure. Ask whether location fields represent a caller’s stated location, a page or keyword target, an advertising setting, or another definition. Do not treat a city total as a forecast.
Recommended approach
Bring a written geographic policy to the review. Decide which locations belong in reporting, how a Plover inquiry is identified, whether county-level activity is separate, and how the firm will handle people who live outside Plover but contact a Plover-serving practice. Require each location view to show its definition and period rather than allowing a broad Wisconsin total to stand in for Plover.
