Ryan Frank, Upright Build Co.

High-end remodeling & home additions · Bend + Redmond, OR

Contact ryan@uprightbuilder.com · (541) 280-3983 Call 20 min Report he has Bend + Redmond corridor Prepared Aug 10, 2026

The one line

Central Oregon is a premium, low-volume, Meta-first remodeling market. The money is there (~$532K median home), demand is thin but high-value, and Ryan is invisible on Google while a dozen competitors advertise hard. Open by showing he isn't even on the map, then use the real competitor data to prove the market pays out. His one paper risk, needing a $15K+ ticket to be profitable, he clears easily doing high-end remodels. A winnable market, and he's the right operator with no presence.

Redmond is a smaller, cheaper-to-reach, more affordable version of Bend. Neither city has enough volume alone, which is exactly why you run them together. Bend is the premium anchor, Redmond adds cheaper incremental reach.

Where he needs to improve to win, in priority order:

  1. Claim/build the GMB profile now. He's not losing to these guys, he isn't in the race. Fastest, cheapest win, and a credibility hole the moment a lead Googles him after an ad.
  2. Review engine to ~30 to 50 fast. That's mid-pack (beats half this list). The market tops out at 134, so leadership is genuinely winnable, not a 500-review mountain.
  3. Categories + service pages matching demand: general contractor, kitchen remodeler, bathroom remodeler. His site already has kitchen/bath/additions pages.
  4. Photos of his high-end work. Craftsmanship is his differentiator. The profile should show it.
Why it matters for ads: we can send traffic, but if a lead checks Google and finds nothing, the ad leaks. GMB is the foundation the ad spend sits on. Fixing it multiplies everything else.

03 · Demand, focus vs. expand

Which services, which cities

Real search volumes and Google click costs, which is exactly why Meta is the smarter channel here.

What to say when he clicks each one

He'll ask about the blurred sections. This is what's real hard-data vs. what you deliver as live analysis, so you're never caught flat.

REAL hard data you can show LIVE your analysis off real inputs
Locked sectionBasisWhat to say
1. Ads running in the corridorREAL12 advertisers, names + longevity. "A dozen competitors are advertising across Bend and Redmond right now, and the top ones have run the same ads for years. Let me pull them up."
2. Over/under spend modelLIVECPM $40, CPB $83–157. No exact curve. "At about $40 to reach 1,000 buyers and about $130 to book an estimate, here's what your budget buys. What are you spending now?"
3. How far ahead #1 isREAL812 days, ~290 ahead, 2×+ the field. "Your top competitor's been advertising 812 days straight, more than double everyone else. Here's the gap, and why he's still beatable."
4. Where your next million isLIVEJudgment from the keyword mix. "Data says lead with kitchen and bath, and run Bend and Redmond together before you grow deep. Either city alone is too thin to carry the spend."
5. What Meta rewards hereLIVELive Ad Library read. "The account running 30 ads is testing hardest. Let me show you the angles Meta keeps serving so you stop guessing at creative."
6. What it takes to winLIVEThis is the engagement. "Premium kitchen/bath offer, a lander that converts, the GMB foundation, and Meta across the corridor. That's the plan, and it's what we'd build together."
Rule: never imply these are finished PDFs waiting to be revealed. They're a live walkthrough of HIS market. Sections 1 and 3 are your proof. 2/4/5/6 are you consulting off real inputs. Drive the screen-share and it lands.

06 · Questions to ask him

Fills the gaps the report can't

  1. "What are you doing for marketing right now?" No GMB, so likely referrals and word-of-mouth.
  2. "What's a typical project ticket for you?" Confirm $15K+. Profitability hinges on it, and high-end remodels clear it easily. Defuses the one risk flag.
  3. "What's your monthly number for marketing?" Sets up the over/under spend conversation.
  4. "More kitchen/bath, or bigger additions and full-home?" Steers focus vs. depth.
  5. "How split is your work between Bend and Redmond?" Confirms the corridor footprint that makes the volume work.

07 · The close

Locked section 6, said out loud

"Central Oregon's a real market for you, but you're the only one here not in the game. First we make you findable, then we put your work in front of affluent homeowners across Bend and Redmond, lead with the kitchen and bath jobs the data says are in demand, and use additions as the upsell. One contractor per market. If that's the direction you want, this call is where we map it."
