A better way to Invent
Everyday Idea People make a difference
Where would the world be without everyday Idea People who took the steps to transform their ideas into
products? Our history is the story of Idea People who created everything from paper clips to rocket ships. These
people will be remembered for their innovative contributions. Most of our heroic innovators were everyday people
who worked as truck drivers, painters, hairdressers, salespeople, or a couple of bicycle mechanics like the Wright
Brothers, who invented the airplane. In other words, everyday people with new ideas can make a difference.
“Many of life’s failures are caused by people who
did not realize how close they were to success
when they gave up.”

Another everyday Idea Person
In 1986, Mr. Davison, like many Idea People, had several ideas for new products. One was to prevent
toothbrush germs from spreading and getting everyone in his family sick. After spending over two years
and exhausting a significant sum of money trying to bring his idea to life, a major corporation beat him
to the market with the same idea. He was beaten to the market by that corporation because they had a
method for building new products quickly and a way to get them to the market. It was at that moment
that he decided to create a company for Idea People like himself who were in need of a method like the
one major corporations use to produce products. His idea was to create a better way to invent that
would benefit future generations of Idea People.
It took years and years of experimentation to figure out the best ways to build ideas into products.
He had failures and successes that taught him how to do things. In time, he invented the world’s first
affordable inventing method for everyday people like himself. Recognizing his achievement, Entrepreneur
Magazine called him a “Creative Genius”. Today, it is called the Davison® Inventing Method.
“The method to build ideas into products is not new. Its been used by the large, wealthy corporations
for decades. I simply unlocked their secrets and made it available to all Idea People.”
George Davison – Idea Person / Inventor / Entrepreneur
Holder of over 40 patents & trademarks

“The Davison® Inventing Method has built more ideas into products

Founder & Inventor
Many products developed from our clients’ ideas and from our own ideas have been sold in Industrial & Consumer catalogs. They‘ve
also been sold at online stores such as Amazon, the Apple App Store and others. You could also find them on the store shelves of
retail giants such as Walmart, Sam’s Club, Best Buy, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Bed Bath & Beyond, Cabela’s, Auto Zone, Target, Sears,
Walgreens, Toys R Us, PetSmart, and many more.
Each product, package or app we designed for our clients began as an idea that went through the Davison® Inventing Method.
Once the ideas were built into products or packaging samples, corporations wanted to sell them. So, we put agreements in place to
allow the corporations to make and sell the products, or use the package design, as long as they pay our client each time one is sold.
Our products have been seen on TV networks including QVC, ABC, CBS, and CNBC. You could also find them featured in newspapers
and magazines such as BusinessWeek, Industrial Design, Innovation, Entrepreneur and many more.
The Davison Inventing Method has built ideas
into products in the following categories:
®
• Apps

You can see the smiles on the Idea People
who chose the Davison® Inventing Method.
You can see some of the Idea People who trusted us with their idea posing with their successful products. It’s an amazing experience to have an
idea in your head and then to actually hold it in your hands. There is a real sense of accomplishment when you build an idea into a product. Each
one has a story that starts with someone who has an idea, someone who is determined to chase the dream, who has hope, who is willing to face
disappointment, and who is trying to make a difference in this world. The stories of Idea People are something their children and grandchildren
will tell one day to inspire their own children. We are inspired by the creative spirit and determination that lives inside Idea People.
