			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>A commonly asked question is &#8220;How long does the Davison Process take?&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1068" title="davison design process" src="http://www.davison.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/prototypeproduction4-200x300.jpg" alt="Davison Design Process " width="200" height="300" />At Davison, our goal is to build your product in the most efficient time frame possible. Professionalism and delivering excellence in design for an economical value is the hallmark of the Davison process. Inventors, idea people and companies are always concerned about time frames when developing a new product for market. You see, developing a product is a complex process and it doesn’t happen overnight. Chances are you’ll only seriously pursue one product idea in your lifetime, and we recommend that the design be ready to be professionally presented.</p>
<p>The first step in our process is Pre-Development. Davison’s research team can finalize a Pre-Development report within 3 to 5 weeks. Once this first step is completed, if the client does not have a professional quality sample with packaging, we offer that service.  </p>
<p>The second step prepares your new product idea for presentation to a manufacturer. Our team begins to envision the final design and packaging possibilities. The design team combines creative energy and design knowledge to create a working product sample of your idea. A new product sample with packaging typically takes 4 to 6 months to complete. During the process you’re updated on the development of your product.</p>
<p>Founder George Davison created a process and built a team of over 250 employees to effectively develop new products. With over 20 years of experience our team has developed one of the world’s fastest new product delivery systems. We’re able to produce over 200 new products every 30 days, and this experience enables us to give our clients an “inventing value.”</p>
<p>Developing a new product is a lengthy and complex process. Beware of anyone who tells you differently. A typical client can expect our process to take at least 6 months to get to the stage where the product idea is ready for presentation to a potential licensee.  We feel our process is the most economical and extensive in the industry and we hope you consider putting our experience to work for you. If you would like to start developing your idea, simply complete our <a href="https://secure.davison.com/submitidea/?source_id=690&#038;campaign_name=campaign-dBlogIA">confidentiality agreement</a> for a no-cost consultation of your idea.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.davison.com/images/products/prods_relaxmicrosuede.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-18952 photo" style="margin-right: 10px;" title="walmart packaging" src="http://www.davison.com/images/products/prods_relaxmicrosuede.jpg" alt="walmart packaging" width="120" height="97" /></a>There are 7 new cushion products in Walmart and on Davison.com for which we created the packaging &#8212; <a href="http://www.davison.com/products/product_relaxlumbar.html">Massage Lumbar</a>, <a href="http://www.davison.com/products/product_relaxmicrosuede.html">Microsuede Seat</a>, <a href="http://www.davison.com/products/product_relaxmeshback.html">Ortho Mesh Back Support</a>, <a href="http://www.davison.com/products/product_relaxwedge.html">Ortho Wedge Seat</a>, <a href="http://www.davison.com/products/product_relaxgelcushion.html">Gel Seat</a>, <a href="http://www.davison.com/products/product_relaxsimleather.html">Simulated Leather Seat</a>, and <a href="http://www.davison.com/products/product_relaxneckcushion.html">Neck Support</a>.  In addition, 3 more cushions will be in our packaging as soon as the old stock is used up. The 10 items complete the line of 11 Relaxzen seat cushions by Comfort Products that (with our help) knocked a competitor off the megastore’s shelves.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-18955 photo" style="margin-left: 10px;" title="relax neck cushion" src="http://www.davison.com/images/products/prods_relaxneckcushion.jpg" alt="relax neck cushion " width="120" height="80" />“I’m surprised to see them in there already,” said the corporate design manager, who found them in his local Walmart. “It’s really neat to walk down the aisle in a store and say, ‘Hey, we did that!’ It’s definitely a pay-off after the amount of work we went through in a short amount of time.”</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-18950 photo" style="margin-right: 10px;" title="davison packaging in walmart" src="http://www.davison.com/images/products/prods_relaxwedge.jpg" alt="davison packaging in walmart" width="100" height="133" />His team presented two different styles and color combinations last year, then the buyer decided he wanted the entire aisle redone, so they redid the packages according to Walmart’s specifications. What is so unique about the packaging is the “little dude” the team created. <img class="alignright size-full wp-image-18951 photo" style="margin-left: 10px;" title="package design for wal-mart" src="http://www.davison.com/images/products/prods_relaxsimleather.jpg" alt="package design for wal-mart" width="120" height="94" /> They came up with an icon similar to the one on a vehicle’s instrument panel, which, when combined with graphics, immediately conveys the unique features of the product, such as vibration and support, so the shopper doesn’t need to spend time reading.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-18956 photo" style="margin-right: 10px;" title="mesh back packaging" src="http://www.davison.com/images/products/prods_relaxmeshback.jpg" alt="mesh back packaging" width="120" height="100" />The wraparound packaging is “technically” Walmart’s private label, said the design manager. In addition, all the packages feature the “Relaxzen” brand logo created by a Davison graphic designer. The logo also will be used on a line of wellness products that Comfort Products is getting ready to launch, for which we also did the packaging. More news on that to come!</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-18953 photo" style="margin-right: 10px;" title="gel cushion package design" src="http://www.davison.com/images/products/prods_relaxgelcushion.jpg" alt="gel cushion package design" width="120" height="111" />“Design did a really good job on the packaging,” said the senior category director in the Licensing Department.</p>
<p>“As usual, the team put the line together in a relatively short amount of time, and it’s great to see the products on the shelf.”</p>
