I remember over 23 years ago when working on my first invention, I was afraid to tell almost anyone about it. My main thought was \u2013 How do I get help without someone stealing my idea? Looking back, I understand why I felt that way. While I was borderline paranoid, I was also na\u00efve.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>It is a simple fact that there isn\u2019t any one single person in the world who can go from an idea to a finished product on the store shelves without the help of others along the way. This fear inventors have of revealing their idea is anchored in stories out of Hollywood that show inventors getting their ideas stolen. In fact, that is a very rare occurrence.<\/p>\n<p>We must get over the fear of someone stealing our ideas as quickly as possible. It is vital to assemble a competent team of people who can help you; a team that can show you other customers they have helped. For example, at Davison we\u2019re in the business of helping people with ideas, and we wouldn\u2019t be in the business very long if we took someone\u2019s idea. Our clients can back that up. Several of those who have trusted us with their ideas have talked with us on film so we can provide a modern comfort zone for today\u2019s idea people.<\/p>\n<p>The good thing about video testimonials of clients whose products we\u2019ve gotten on the store shelves is that they speak from real experience. These are customers who\u2019ve worked with Davison\u00a0over periods of time to accomplish their vision, and they want to give back to people like themselves. Months or years after they started their journey, they are grateful enough to give us their permission and tell their story so that others won\u2019t be as nervous as they were on day one.<\/p>\n<p>I dream of the day when people come in contact with the Davison\u00a0brand and immediately know that we can be trusted with the most confidential of ideas. Until then, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.davison.com\/s_experience\/testimonials.html\">view a few video testimonials<\/a> from our clients.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As an inventor, I know confidentiality is always my customer\u2019s biggest worry.
