As a marketing person, I often times get excited when I see a business doing something new, or innovative. Recently, on my way home I saw some sign posts going up at an established business in our area, but I realized, this was a business that had never had a sign. The business - Schofield's Septic Service. Schofield's is located on busy Route 302, just outside of Lisbon NH and they service septic systems all over the North Country of New Hampshire and beyond. I wondered, would this be a sign for them? A few days later, as my husband and I drove by, we both gasped when we saw what now appeared between the sign posts - a beautiful hand crafted wooden sign, with gold lettering - made especially for Schofield's Septic. "Wow," my husband said. "That is one beautiful sign. What a class act." His words said it all, a class act. Schofield's now had a beautiful sign to go with their always clean trucks that are precisely lined up in the yard in the evening, nice fence posts near the trucks, a nice yard. And Kevin Schofield's sign got me to thinking, what a great statement he's making. If you own a business in an field that not everyone talks about all the time, septic systems aren't exactly cocktail conversation, what a way to say that you run a nice clean operation. One that you wouldn't be embarrassed by when they come up your rural country road to pump your septic tank, or run a camera down the line, or have a NH certified septic system evaluation. I called Kevin, I wanted to know more about this beautiful sign. He said he knew what he wanted and he found the right person to do it. He had a vision. The business was started by Kevin's dad, Conrad in 1970 when he moved to the greater Littleton area. However, Conrad had worked for his father in Massachusetts, where they had a septic service that started in 1948. You can still find Conrad on the job sites and at the shop - I think he could probably tell you where tanks and systems are, just by memory. An amazing family, and an amazing sign. If you ever need septic service, we have a number of great services around, including Schofield's. Schofield's can be reached at 603-838-6028 and by email at: schofieldseptic@roadrunner.com.
