What is a Trademark?
A trademark is any word, image, slogan, sound, or design that indicates who provided a good or service. Essentially, this type of intellectual property (IP) tells a consumer where the product came from. More importantly for business owners, a registered trademark stops competitors from using the same or similar words, images, slogans, or sounds to sell similar goods and services.
Here are some examples:
- The Golden Arches Logo
The slogan “I’m lovin’ it”
- A name like McDonald’s
An invention like a technical process, machine, manufactured good, or chemical formula probably needs a patent.
A song, book, film, or other original creative work requires a copyright instead.
