Business needs branding, and the branding always seeking for an

attractive Logo. Our concepts and design in the logo may affect

infringement by introducing it into the world without a proper

registration. To avoid such malfunctions, we have to take care of our

logos by the use of trademarks laws. Registration is the crucial part of a

business. It has the power to save us from duplications. Let us discuss

about the 10 points of logo registration.

What is a Trademark?


Trademark is an Intellectual Property. We can trademark on whatever the

things we wanted in our Business. But the thing is it must be distinctive.

We can trademark a logo, word, slogan, or some other combination of

words. By trademarking a logo, we will identified in the market based on

that logo. We will get an identification via Trademark. Trademark makes

trust in users. It becomes an identifier of the product’s source. Trademark

Registration gives some advantages of being not infringed by other

peoples. Generally, we can say that Trademark is the unique

Identification object.

business. If we do not attempt any registration, the result will be an

infringement. Trademark registration protects your Brand Identity. It

saves your true value and trust in Customer side. One your brand gets

infringed, then you will lose customer trust and satisfaction on your

company. So by placing a trademarked logo saves you from all these

interruptions. Trademark stops infringing companies to copycat the

registered brand names, logos and slogans.

If you are a registered trademark owner, then you can charge on the

person, who is using your logo or any other similar logos without


authorization. You have the full rights to initiate such legal activities,

because you are a registered person.

Likewise, if your logo is trademarked in United States, you can register

the trademark in other countries too. It is an added advantages and you

can connect more networks and sell your products in foreign markets.

How to check that our Logo is efficient for Registration

purposes?

We can check our logos by sending it to Patent office. They are

approving thousands of logos annually. Most of the requests are getting

rejected or denied due to the similarities and non-uniqueness. The

criteria are trademark should not mislead the customer or do not

provoke and cannot contain any offensive parts. The similarity in the

trademarks may lead confusion among customers. If your trademark is

unique then definitely it will be suitable for trademark registration.

services. For registration you have to complete the Patent Office

classification system. If your trademark is strong, then it will be easy to

register. Because such marks are having 100% of uniqueness. If not so, it

means your trademarks are weaker and it takes very difficult to get

registered. Strongest trademarks always possess arbitrary and fanciful.

registered. You can use the ® symbol only for the registered marks. But

once you file the trademark you can use the symbol. It is the

representation that you are start the process of your trademark

registration. If you are not registered yet, then there is no use with this

symbols. These symbol are the representation of ownerships.

symbol, then use the keyboard combination of Alt key followed by
