In today’s episode, we dive deep into the world of trademarks, an essential - but often misunderstood - part of protecting your brand and your business so that you never get into legal trouble. Because I bet you AREN'T someone who wants to get a little 'ol "cease and desist" letter in the mail, like... ever. Special guest and trademark lawyer Joey Vitale shares common misconceptions about trademarks vs LLCs vs domain names, why you need to protect your brand EARLY and the risks of waiting, how to work through the trademark application process that is notorious for being a little challenging, why so many applications get rejected and how to prevent that from happening to you, how to protect your logo and business name and slogan from copycats, and more.
