TRADEMARKS

efforts is to register your trade mark.

registered by category of product or services. Trademarks are
also registered by country.
In particular, if you ever intend to sell the business or have a regional,
national or international business the true value of the
business will be based on the brand, trademark value and
to what extend you own these.
