Kempner, TX · 50-Mile Service RadiusFebruary 25, 2026

Executive Summary

Prepared by Matthew Wilson, Cen-Tex Marketing · February 25, 2026

Buffalo Hills Aggregates is currently wholesale-first, with a near-term need to increase overall "searchability" across multiple materials while maintaining a conservative, investor-conscious marketing budget.

This proposal outlines a 45-Day Materials Demand Sprint focused on immediate visibility and lead generation through Google Search PPC, supported by a foundational Google Organic SEO campaign that includes front-loaded on-page work and page creation in the first few weeks.

"The guiding principle behind this plan: start conservative, measure CPC/CPL, and scale only after results are validated."

Objectives

Phase 1First 45 Days
  • Generate qualified inbound demand using Google Search PPC for Buffalo Hills' core materials (marketed concurrently).
  • Establish reliable tracking for leadership visibility into CPC, CPL, and lead quality.
  • Execute front-loaded SEO buildout so Buffalo Hills becomes organically searchable for priority materials.
  • Stabilize and improve Google Business Profile presence to strengthen Maps visibility and credibility.
Phase 2Post Day-45

Scale spend and expand scope only if CPC/CPL and lead-to-order economics justify it and align with operational capacity.

Decision criteria includes:

  • CPC and CPL by campaign/material
  • Qualified lead volume and quality
  • Best-performing search terms and geos
  • SEO progress indicators

Strategy Overview

Leadership emphasized two priorities during discovery: market multiple products concurrently, and become highly searchable within the 50-mile service radius.

THE APPROACH

"Search Visibility Stack" — layered channels that compound over time

01

Google Search PPC

Immediate visibility and demand capture for all priority materials concurrently. Call/text-first ad strategy.

02

Google Maps / GBP

Trust and proximity-based discovery. Profile completeness, photos, and review cadence.

03

Website Landing Flow

Conversion tracking to turn clicks into calls and quote requests. Clear CTAs for each material.

04

Organic SEO Foundation

Front-loaded page creation and on-page optimization. Compounding visibility over time.
