Why You Should Register Your Business or Brand Name as a Trademark Separately from Your Logo

If you’re serious about protecting your business and brand, take these steps:

  1. File a text mark trademark registration application for your business name if it’s distinctive.
  2. Apply to register your logo separately if you have unique branding elements.
  3. Monitor your trademarks to prevent infringement by competitors. You’re even required to do this if you have a federal trademark registration.
