Before Your Call Checklist
Here are a few things to think about as you get ready for your call. Since there is so much to cover, doing these things will make sure that we can make the most of the time we have together.

Trademark 411- Video
If you’re doing a trademark consult (or thinking about protecting your brand via trademark at some point), this video is key. So we can maximize the consultation, I am getting a head start on the trademark info. Rather than spending a good portion of our call discussing the trademark process with the US Patent and Trademark Office, I want to lay out how the application process goes, from when you submit your application until you get your certificate of registration.
