If you only have the budget for one trademark application right now, then protect the word mark first!

A “word mark” is a trademark that is a word or phrase. This type of trademark protects the words themselves, rather than how the words appear in a design or an image.

Protecting your word mark will give you broader protection than a design mark like a logo.

But if your budget allows you to file applications for both your name and your logo, then protect both! 🙌🏾

An LLC is a business entity that protects your personal assets from the debts and liabilities of the business.

It does NOT protect your brand name🚫 Only registering your trademark protects your brand name.

LLC formation and trademark registration are two separate things that provide very different protections!

Check me out tomorrow morning with discussing registering your trademark and other aspects of running a business!

A registered trademark is a valuable asset for a business to own because it offers security and value. Trademarks make it easy for customers to find you and your brand is how customers will recognize your products/services. Most purchasing decisions are influenced by trademarks and the brand reputation. The more your business reputation grows, the more valuable your brand will be!
