It all begins with an idea.

Maybe you want to launch a new business or product.

Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more.

Or maybe you want to expand or protect your existing business and brand.

We are business startup and trademark & IP registration professionals.

Whatever it is, you’ll first need to check whether the name for your business, service or new idea has been trademarked. Maybe you’ve already registered your business name at Companies House, but this doesn’t mean you can automatically lay claim to that name as a trademark, you may end up investing lots of money in your logo and brand media only to be told it infringes on someone else’s, that means you’ll have to stop and start again.

We can mitigate these risks saving you and your business time and money.

Our IP team have over 20 years experience in trademark and brand management. The first step is to get in touch with us to discuss your needs.

Why do you need to register your business, product or idea as a trademark?

Here are some reasons why you should register your business, product or idea as a trademark, or at least take up our search and advice service:

✪ If you are selling on Amazon or eBay - You may experience counterfeit issues or situations where your product content is changed by a third party seller, to qualify for Amazon Brand Registry you need to be trademarked

✪ It will save you money - Just because you’ve successfully registered your business name with Companies House doesn’t automatically give you the right to trademark the name. Before you invest a lot of money into a name and brand, with logos, social media channels and a website, you need to ensure you can register it as a trademark, you don’t have to of course, but that creates a risk for your business or product, a similar company may have already trademarked the name, slogan and similar logo and could rightfully issue you with a cease and desist letter, alternatively you’ve built up a healthy local customer base and want to expand which includes applying for a trademark, again you could find out a similar business has trademarked the name and logo and will most likely oppose your application.

This is where we come in. We are the ultimate one stop shop, we can design, search, check and register all at the same time. Even if you’ve already gone ahead and set up as a business we can still help you register your name, logo and brand by advising you on small changes you may need to make for your application to be successful.

✪ You will standout from your competitors - Your brand, reputation and quality of service is what drives your revenue, these are your most valuable assets so they need to be protected to make you standout from your competitors

✪ Trademarking your business, product or idea allows you to expand your business - Business is good, now its time to branch out and expand online and geographically, you’ve protected your business, product or idea so you can expand knowing you are not infringing on other companies or products, this gives you peace of mind and allows you to focus on the things that matter

✪ It’s professional and delivers the right impression - If you’re serious about your business, product or idea then its time to get serious by registering it as a trademark, why carry the risk?

✪ It’s a great investment - Your trademark is intellectual property, so like all property your trademark can be sold, licensed and even mortgaged, some companies and individuals have made thousands of pounds from selling on or licensing their trademark. Don’t just protect your brand, turn it into a valuable asset
