What is a Trademark
A trademark is a unique mark or word (s) used to represent a business or its products. Once registered, the same symbol or chain of words may not be used by any other organization, indefinitely, as long as it remains in use and is paid for in due course.
Unlike copyright, which is granted for a period of 20 years, trademarks do not end there. Companies need to apply for and obtain a patent from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to seek protection from copies, however.
Over time, trademarks are the same as the company name, so you do not even need to see the name to identify a particular business. Think of an apple with an apple bite issued by Apple as its brand, the swoosh brand that Nike puts on all its products, or McDonald’s gold medal that was registered decades ago.
The fact that we easily associate brands and names with companies and their products is one of the major advantages in their use. When a customer sees a standard logo or phrase, they have instant recognition, which can drive likes and, ultimately, sell.
Trademarks To indicate that a trademark is branded, companies use one of three trademarks:
™ - You are using a trademark mark after a logo or phrase that warns competitors to sue the trademark or phrase as yours, but you do not need to apply for it legally. ® - Only trademarks officially issued by the Trademark office may use the ® trademark, which represents a registered trademark. ℠ - Companies that sell services, not products, have the option to use the service logo, but most use ™ to make things easier. Trademark Protection Although a trademark is issued for the life of a company or product, businesses need to be aware that phrases become commonplace. This happens mostly when people use a company brand name to refer to all similar products or processes. Consider Kleenex for facial tissue, or Xerox for photocopying. To continue to search for this trademark, those companies need to inform people who misuse the name to stop.
