When it comes to running a business, every dollar matters. Trust me, I know. As a social media and trademark attorney, I run this law firm myself. So you’re probably thinking to yourself, “What is the value of having a trademark?” Meaning, “Is it going to be worth it to shell out a little bit of money for the value that I get in a trademark?” The answer is 100% absolutely, unequivocally hell yeah!
First, having a trademark allows you to grow your business. Having a recognized brand is what separates your company from everyone else’s. I mean, consider this, you can find soda in every supermarket across the planet, but Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, these are big sellers. Why? Because they have a reputable brand that is trademark connected with their soda. So just like these big brands, having a trademark is going to help to set you apart from the competition.
And speaking of the competition, the last thing that you want is for someone else to come up with a similar name, logo, or tagline, and confuse people as to whose business is whose and tries to steal your money. So by having a trademark, you can stop other people from adopting similar names, logos, slogans, and even color schemes that are going to be too confusingly similar to theirs. So in essence, by working with a trademark attorney you can get a monopoly over using your name in connection with your goods and services. So there’s immense value in getting a trademark, growing your brand, protecting your brand, having all of your wildest dreams come true.
Maybe the last one’s a stretch, but I’m a trademark lawyer, so I love this stuff.
