In this fascinating episode of EYL, hosts Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings sit down with seasoned trademark attorney Rosezena Pierce to uncover the critical aspects of trademarking your business. Rosezena emphasizes the importance of securing your brand name legally before you pour your time, effort, and finances into building your business.
Right from the start, Rosezena equates starting a business without a trademark to building a house on land you don't own—a recipe for disaster. She shares eye-opening stories from her decade-long career that illustrate the financial and emotional toll that can come from not taking this crucial step.
Learn why simply having an LLC or a corporation is not enough for full ownership of your business name. Rosezena provides valuable insights into the different classes under trademark law and the nuances that can make or break your business. From understanding the complexities of what can be deemed confusingly similar, to the story of the original Burger King in Illinois that got boxed into a 20-mile radius because they didn't have federal registration, this video is packed with information you can't afford to miss.
Rosezena also explains where and how to search for your desired business name to ensure it's free and clear for your use. She highly recommends hiring a skilled attorney for this process, as doing it yourself or relying on data transfer companies may lead to costly mistakes. The episode wraps up by revealing why federal trademark registration provides broader and more reliable protection, especially in today's internet-driven world.
If you're an entrepreneur looking to build a legacy that outlives you, this episode is a must-watch!
