A brand is a collection of identifying features that establish a company’s identity, either individually or collectively. A trademark, on the other hand, is a symbolic statement of a brand’s distinguishing feature that allows it to be identified. Protecting a company’s brand through trademark is vital since, without a distinguishing identity, a company is nothing more than another generic product or service in the eyes of the general public.
Obtaining a trademark registration establishes brand identity and differentiates your goods from competing services and products on the market. It is vital to protect a trademark if a brand’s distinct character is to be preserved. Let us now take a closer look at the trademark application process.
