Many entrepreneurs still consider trademark registration to be the least important step in the process of establishing their brand. This can become a big issue. Not registering a trademark from the start leaves a company vulnerable to potential copycats and other forms of brand infringement that can significantly damage its reputation and hamper growth.
Social media plays a crucial role in the growth of any brand. If you are starting a business, prepare to leverage social media to at least some extent in the promotion of your company. Whether you make ads to run on Facebook and LinkedIn or define your company’s persona through viral posts and tweets, social media provides unique and valuable opportunities for businesses. It also can be a source of countless trademark infringements that can be detrimental to starting businesses.
