1. Start with the service area, not a population promise
Rock Springs is a municipality in Sweetwater County. The 2020–2024 ACS five-year estimate records 23,127 residents, with a margin of error of 26. That is a description of the city, not a measure of legal demand, review volume, competition or likely revenue. Your firm may serve Rock Springs, other parts of Sweetwater County, Wyoming clients outside the county, or a narrower practice-area footprint. Those distinctions should determine which clients receive review requests and which profile activity you evaluate.
Recommended approach
Write down the geographic scope you want reputation work to support before discussing implementation. Separate Rock Springs from Sweetwater County and from broader Wyoming service areas. Then review whether your Google Business Profile, website contact paths and internal reporting describe the same territory. A useful plan should not imply that every county resident is a prospective client or that a city population guarantees inquiries.
