Before launching your business, securing your brand name is crucial, and that starts with a trademark search. This process ensures that your chosen name, logo, or slogan isn’t already claimed by another company, preventing legal disputes and costly rebranding.
What Happens if You Skip a Trademark Search?
Many businesses make the mistake of assuming their brand name is unique without checking. This can lead to:
Legal conflicts with existing trademark holders.
Rejection of your trademark application by the USPTO or other trademark offices.
Costly rebranding after building brand recognition.
How to Perform a Trademark Search
Check the USPTO and international trademark databases for existing registrations.
Look for common law trademarks (unregistered but still protected under the law).
Search business directories, domain names, and social media for potential conflicts.
Hire a professional for an in-depth analysis.
A trademark search isn’t just a legal formality—it’s a necessary step in building a brand that stands the test of time.
