Key Takeaways
- You can have multiple trademarks in your business that each serve a different purpose: some are unique and some create a unifying element across your branding
- Your trademark strategy will change and develop over time as your business grows - you don't have to have it all figured out when you register your first trademark
- The sooner you have a registered trademark for your most important branding element, the easier it is to get more trademarks for that same brand across new products
- Cohesive branding backed by registered trademarks adds value to your business and makes it more attractive to potential buyers or investors
