When building a music based business it's important to protect yourself. One way to do this is to trademark your stage name and logo so that you have legal right of ownership. Now getting a trademark can be very expensive so the big question is...when is it the right time to file for a trademark? Well as the owner of multiple trademarks you might be surprised to hear my take on protecting yourself. This could save you thousands of dollars.

@alexyoung7319 5 лет назад

Don't be foolish. You need to do the research too. There is much more than just paying the government fee. You could have an infringer. You may need to do a cease & desist, like I got.

@sasuke1243 4 года назад

@Un Bothered Google search: "denoting a legally enforceable order from a court or government agency directing someone to stop engaging in a particular activity. "they received a cease-and-desist order for conducting unlicensed property management activities" denoting a cautionary notice detailing the sender's complaint of alleged wrongdoing by the recipient and threatening legal action if the offending activity is not stopped. noun: cease-and-desist letter; plural noun: cease-and-desist letters "she sent a cease-and-desist letter last July urging them to stop using the name"

Great video Adam, but maybe you should've talk a little bit about pricing too? And also about how registering the trademarks work. You can register your name/logo in your own country, in Europe (EUIPO), separately in US (USPTO) or worldwide (WIPO). Now I'm not sure how much it costs in US, but here in Europe it's around 850 euros (and that's just filing for a trademark by yourself!). It's definitely something that has to be done by a trademark lawyer, you don't wanna make a tiny mistake and lose 850 euros...

@trademarkexpress4803 5 лет назад

Marvo, Establishing a trademark is MUCH MORE than the government filing fee. Your trademark needs to be legally clear too - in sound, appearance and meaning under trademark law. This is called a COMPREHENSIVE SEARCH and takes about 5 hours in the USA and 8 hours for an EUIPO. It includes common law research as well as established trademarks, as first use matters too. These firms have 6 years to oppose, cease and desist your product or service. See tmexpress.com for a free consultation - even if you already filed your mark last August.

Great video. All very true and accurate except for one thing: you CAN file a trademark application before your brand is in use. You will need to start using it before it gets REGISTERED. But often you want to file an application BEFORE anyone has heard of you. Uber, Stripe, and many huge companies filed their first trademark applications before they even launched. Hope this helps.

@phil1353 3 года назад

@4:50 for your answer....

@trademarkexpress4803 5 лет назад

Lots of common sense here. The added reality we see - entertainment and clothing are the 2 toughest classes to be legally clear in - based on trademark law whereas similar names do affect your legal use - in sound, appearance or meaning. Here's the link to the USPTO that talks about this need: www.uspto.gov/trademarks/basics/private_attorney.jsp. There is so much commercial activity in these 2 classes - clothing 1st, then entertainment 2nd. So, if legally clear, then keep going and file for the trademark. Clothing can wait for s o m e commercial success. Entertainment is especially essential to get right on the first day - heck before the first day. Otherwise back to the creative. Call us for a free consultation: www.tmexpress.com/. Chris

Thanks for this Adam. I'm an upcoming producer and indie label owner here in Jamaica 🇯🇲, our industry out here is very loose and badly structured because of lack of education on these business processes. I appreciate you for this. Information like this is highly valuable and needed. Blessings 🙏🏽. Please give us more insight. P.S. can you do an in-depth video on publishing and copyright rights and royalty collections? Bless up! Oh and to answer your question at the end of your video: Ye I have a brand, a logo, and I'm trying to do some apparel for it.

@adamivy Год назад

Just research a trademark lawyer in your town that way you can meet with them and talk about your specific needs. What I needed may not fit for what you need.

@truthshetold 4 года назад

Can you trademark a phrase like "back that thing up" so no one else can use it

@magneto7930 4 года назад

I have a killer band name. The only problem that I seem to be hearing all around is that I can't trademark until I have a product to sell, and at this time the debut release is going to be delayed. I don't want anybody to steal the name, but I guess there's nothing I can do at this point.

@FTW_666 19 часов назад

Any updates on how that went? I’m in the exact same situation.

@magneto7930 19 часов назад

@FTW_666 I didn't use it. I put a bunch of things out under my own name. I played all the instruments myself anyway so there's no band really. But if I ever do a band thing then I will use the name. I don't think it's as difficult as I thought. I think as long as you have a few things out there to sell then I'm sure you can trademark the name. I don't think it has to sell anything it just has to be official and on the market. I say if you've got something going get it out there and use whatever name you want. Just put it out there through CD baby, distrokid, or one of those labels so you can get your stamp on it. You'll be fine. Good luck!

@alexyoung7319 5 лет назад

I cannot say enough how glad I was to research my new name to replace the prior name I had because I got a cease and desist. There was no way I was going to have to change my name again! The new name I thought up was proved by the trademark company, not to be available, so the next name we researched and it was available. Sure it cost more, but when I saw the hundreds of pages of research that was done, we knew we'd be able to keep the name.

@marcovicente4015 4 года назад

Hey I did it I click the SUSCRIBED. One question I registered by myself a business name first which is an I give an example : BLUE ROCK INC. But before I registered for the trademark I created or I designed the logo and the slogan along wit the name of the trade name BLUE ROCK INC. I am not sure if I did it right or I make a big mistake to registered for the trademark because I aded the letters INC. along with the logo. Since I know CORPORATION, INC. and LTD., are just the kind or type of business right. Let me know please if I will be rejected for the mistake. I registered the trademark online on the 2 of March 2020. Thank you.

My social media pages profile picture shouldn't there be my picture for example? Where would i even put the logo? I tried looking for some major or even not so major artists using logos but they all used professional pictures as their profile pic for everything... I wonder should i post a professional picture or a logo as profile pics. Or can i have both somehow and if so where should i fit them? Thank you

Use a trademark service/Lawyer via Fiverr. Don't file a trademark on your own. These things take 6 to 9 months, and if you filed it the wrong way, then you lost your money plus have to do the whole process again. I'm going to use a lawyer, simply for peace of mind and knowing its done the right way.

@darkeyez3444 4 года назад

the only people who ever used my name were entire bands, I am the one and only Strife Peace, dude trying to use my name doesn't even understand the meaning nor how it applies as a trademark for me, it has literally been my nickname since 94 when i was a 4 yr old kid, it simply evolved, maybe he though since I added Peace as a metaphor that he could steal my name lol for future reference when everyone comes searching, the Peace in Strife Peace stands for balance of heart and mind, I added it after I found spirituality, it my way of saying I can be just as peaceful as I can struggled in life, stealing my name is more than just an insult, Strife stands for lil thug which is what the hood called me growing up. Tupac: whats a thug? a black man on a struggle. And I didn't find the name Strife, it found me, and wouldn't leave me alone until I made it my name, I was literally like mike jones, I was far more known for my name than my music

Hey Adam, this is great video! I'm very much interested in this topic, and I have been considering trademarking. My personal brand is me (Tom Hawk), I'm a cinematic composer, producer and sound designer. I'm also going to be launching my first online course soon, teaching aspiring composers the skills & mindset needed in order to write cinematic music for films, trailers and more. In the future, would I trademark each course I release or whatever I release/host the courses through (my personal brand or an online education company/brand). Thanks again for such great content Adam, keep up the amazing work!
