So I don't have to get the trademark before going public with the name. So would it be best to not take the "buying an .store domain and selling online" route until I trademark, or is that something I can go ahead and do now and focus on getting those sales and building that customer base first still?
I am curious if texas is any cheaper than California to get all these permits you mentioned in this video. please let me know since I am ready to get my business registered. I have a house in dallas texas and I can register over there but if the cost is the same then I will register in the Bay Area ca.
If you do your proof of concept, and it looks like you will be selling and moving forward with that brand-name, I definitely would recommend trademarking that brand name.
@@UneakDesign Thanks and yes, my proof of concept is done. It's a clothing brand I've been working on since 2020 & It's starting to get a buzz now And I don't want anybody to take my name
The sellers permit is what she need from your county to sell and to collect sales tax. However, a resellers permit is what you need to buy Apparel blanks, inks, vinyl, and other items that need to use and intend on reselling.
Hey gotta question Got a job as a head designer for a fashion company I am meant to design everything related to clothing how do I give right pricing because my ideas are being commercialized and how do I go about licensing my designs so my ideas are not stolen
Honestly, trademarking or copywriting your designs without them being attached to a brand is going to be very very hard to do. When you say licensing, do you mean you want to create designs and have other companies be able to pay to use them?
Canada laws in USA laws are almost identical, that being said, I would still check with the Canadian laws but in my opinion, I don’t think there’s gonna be much of a difference.
You can totally do that. You’ll only need a sellers permit if you want to purchase resell items at wholesale pricing. Eventually once you start selling some decent amount you’ll need to get one for your taxes.
In the beginning, I would recommend just selling without getting any of these! Not until you start actually selling and making decent amount of money then I would look to start on any of these legal things that you need to do, but until then see if your stuff is gonna sell first.
