Designing LogoWhether you are already an established business or in the early stages of a start-up, protecting your trademark (TM) is often overlooked and cannot be overstated.

In essence, a trademark is a cornerstone of your business’s identity and branding, meant to represent the company’s reputation and good will that can be distinguished in the marketplace from others: avoiding confusion and preventing others from adopting similar marks. Having a unique trademark:

  • Helps customers easily identify your unique value-add.
  • Makes utilizing internet and social media more effective.
  • Protects you against bad actors.
  • Increases the overall asset value of the organization.
