It could be a name, sign, picture, signature, colour, word, slogan, software, application, website, shape, or combination of any of these or even a brand name to identify your business.

To avoid any repercussions in the future, it is best to take help from someone who has the expertise and knowledge of the field. That is why there are agencies in place that provide services to register a trademark for your brand or business.
The trademark registration agencies can help remind you that your trademark is a valuable asset and it can be sold, licensed or franchised amidst protecting your business identity, make sure you don’t use anything that similar to someone else’s brand, and prevents from your product or service being confused as a sister brand or with a brand that has a bad reputation.
