1. Define the Sheridan service area before reviewing performance
Sheridan city and Sheridan County are not interchangeable labels. A firm may serve people in the city, elsewhere in the county, or across Wyoming. The Census record identifies Sheridan city as a municipality and records its county relationship as Sheridan County; it does not identify where callers live or where matters originate. Intake review should therefore preserve the geographic information your firm actually collects rather than treating every caller as a Sheridan resident. Review whether the intake conversation records the caller’s location, the relevant jurisdiction, and whether the matter falls inside the firm’s service area.
Recommended approach
Set a clear rule for geographic qualification. Decide which location facts belong in the conversation, who confirms them, and what happens when a prospective client is outside the firm’s accepted area. Use the consultation to determine whether geographic details should be part of coaching and reporting.
