Hello Enterpreneurs,
Have you heard of trademarking and why it is important to trademark?
Trademarking is an important step for protecting your brand identity. It will stop competitors from poaching your customers by imitating your brand. It can also offer you some protection if those copycats do something reputation-damaging.
SHOULD YOUR SMALL BUSINESS BE TRADEMARKED?
Some small business owners assume that trademarking is just for global brands. But protecting your hard work and your brand identity is just as important for small businesses as it is for huge corporations.
Brand logos are the most obvious and most commonly trademarked items for small businesses.
But you can also trademark words, symbols, packaging, and even sounds. Trademark assessment is a case-by-case basis, so if you have a question about whether part of your brand identity is trademark-worthy, a small business intellectual property attorney can answer your questions.
Trademark law protects certain words or designs, and their variations and combinations, that distinguish a brand. Trademarks help companies keep their own distinct brand as compared to others.
As examples, various songs and books have their protection through copyright law. In contrast, company names and certain unique words have their protection through trademark law.
Trademarks are very useful for businesses that want to use brands to help customers easily distinguish their company and product. These symbols make it easy for consumers to know where a product or service is coming from. Trademarks also make it so that companies are interested in building their brand by providing high-quality products and services.
Under trademark law, you get certain protections automatically when you are using the distinguishable trademark in your business. However, by registering the trademark, you get many more benefits, such as knowing your trademark is proper, getting federal national use of the trademark, and that others are presumed to know your trademark is in force.
