BEST MOMENTS
‘The trademarking process takes a long time & I’ve seen a lot of entrepreneurs being taken advantage of by unscrupulous firms that claim to be able to trademark their brand for $49.’
‘The success rate of your trademark application is directly related to your willingness to understand the basics.’
‘On a general level, what trademarks protect is the brand, whether it’s the name, tagline, logo, or some combination.’
‘Trademarks is the only type of IP that you can own, in theory, forever. Copyrights, patents, industrial right expire, if you renew your trademark every 10 years you can own it forever.’
