Everything You NEED To Know About Trade Marks.
What you'll learn
In this episode.
Hands up if you think when you register your business name, get the domain and an ABN you’re completely set up and ready to go? While it may be true that you can happily commence business at this point, it doesn’t mean you are protected. In order to protect your brand and intellectual property, you need to learn about trade marks.
So many biz mums have fallen prey to copycats and even 100% rip offs. It’s a sad reality that in this life, almost everything has been done before.
So what can you do about it and HOW exactly do you protect yourself legally?
THIS WEEK’S PODCAST
I’ve sourced an expert on the subject to guide us through the do’s and don’ts of trade marks and copyright law. The lovely Lisa Win is the founder of Win Trade marks and as a registered Trade mark Attorney she knows all the ins and outs of this complex system. Prior to launching Win Trade marks, Lisa had a successful career as a criminal lawyer.
Lisa is a hustling mum to three beautiful boys and loves nothing more than helping small business owners get their ducks LEGALLY in a row.
