How to Choose a Great Trademark! Welcome to my first ever blog post!!... Ive been in the business, the trademark business that is, for over 15 years. Ive seen my share of great and not so great trademarks. Ive seen more start-ups than I can count, and all have the same concern Is my trademark a good trademark? I spent 6 years as an in-house trademark agent for one of Canadas largest womens retailers and collaborated with the marketing departments on a daily basis carrying out searches for names that they wanted to use to identify their brands. One thing I learned very quickly in my time in house, is that marketing and trademarking dont always go hand in hand. Marketing wants want is going to resonate with the consumer, of course they do, thats how you get the consumer, but 95% of the time, what resonates with the consumer are, in trademark talk, a) already taken, b) too generic or c) descriptive. So, now youre asking yourself, well if whats good for marketing isnt good for trademarking, what IS good for trademarking? Lucky for you, Im going to tell you. Lets look first at what kind of trademarks exist. There are 4 kinds of marks, which range from strong to weak. The 5 kinds of marks are: Distinctive (He-Man of marks) Arbitrary (Man-At-Arms of marks) Suggestive (Teela of marks) Descriptive (Evil-Lyn of marks) Generic (Skeletor of marks) Now if youre a He-Man Master of the Universe fan, you will understand the analogies. For those of you who are much, much younger than I am, the best trademark to have is a DISTINCTIVE one. For the purposes of this post, I will let you know what makes a trademark distinctive, however stay tuned and I will explain, in detail, the other 4 kinds as well in a future blog post. A distinctive trademark is one that stands out in the crowd, one that ideally, is a coined term, one that means absolutely nothing. Great examples of coined marks are Xerox, Hyba (fyi I was involved in choosing that one!), Exxon, Verizon, Kodak are all perfect trademarks because they are not dictionary words, actually they are not even words! There will likely be no competing marks that would be similar in the marketplace, which means your trademark will do what it is supposed to do, distinguish your brand from the others. Another way to add distinctiveness to your trademark is to pair a word with a distinctive design. Think of Starbucks, their name is already a pretty good trademark, but paired with their mermaid design, they nailed it! So when youre choosing your trademark, keep one thing in mind Be Original, Be Distinctive. Well thats it folks, hope I didnt bore you to death!
