1. Determine the core protection category.
Decide what kind of trademark to register according to your business scope. For example, cosmetics manufacturers must register Class 3 trademarks, office stationery manufacturers must register Class 16 trademarks, and so on. However, it is not enough to register only one category. If an e-commerce platform sells cosmetics, it also needs to register Internet-related core categories such as Category 9 (related to APP software), Category 35 (advertising sales), Category 38 (communication services) and Category 42 (website services).
2. Determine the trademark name or design
The most basic function of a trademark is to distinguish the source of a trademark or service, and at the same time, it is required to be easy to spread in order to improve its popularity among consumers, which requires that a trademark must be easy to identify and spread. Therefore, it is very important to determine the brand name or design.
3. Deep query analysis
In the process of trademark registration, trademark inquiry is an important link that cannot be ignored. Through trademark inquiry, we can know whether the trademark applied for registration is the same as or similar to others' previously registered trademarks, thus reducing the risk of trademark registration, improving the success rate of trademark registration and avoiding wasting time and money.
