Answers to Common Questions

What is a trademark?

A trademark is a recognizable sign, design, word, phrase, or combination used to identify and distinguish the goods or services of one business from those of others. It helps protect your brand identity and ensures that customers can easily recognize your products or services. Trademarks protect your company’s brand identity, including logos, names, and symbols, from being used by competitors. They help distinguish your products and services in the market, build brand recognition, and ensure that your customers associate your offerings with your company, ultimately increasing trust and loyalty.

Why should I register my trademark?

Registering your trademark is vital for protecting your company’s brand and securing exclusive rights to use it. For corporations, it strengthens legal standing against infringement, preserves brand reputation, and enhances the overall value of your trademark portfolio. A registered trademark allows for easier enforcement, potential revenue generation through licensing, and confident expansion into new markets or categories. By registering your trademarks, you safeguard key corporate assets and support long-term business growth.

How can trademark licensing enhance revenue streams?

Licensing your trademarks enables other businesses to legally use your brand under defined terms, offering an opportunity to generate additional revenue through licensing fees or royalties. Beyond financial benefits, trademark licensing can significantly boost brand exposure, allowing your company to enter new markets or expand into different product categories without the need for direct investment or operational risks. However, it’s crucial to establish strict licensing agreements that maintain control over how your trademarks are used, ensuring consistent quality and brand integrity. Proper oversight is essential to safeguarding your brand’s reputation and preventing dilution of its value.

When should we consider adding cross-border trademark protection?

If your company plans to expand its operations internationally, enter new markets, or sell products online to global customers, it’s crucial to consider cross-border trademark protection. Registering your trademark in additional countries helps prevent infringement, ensures you maintain control over your brand in new territories, and can protect you from costly disputes down the line.
