MURRAY STOTT’S TIPS / CHECKLIST FOR CHOOSING A GOOD TRADE MARK AGENT:

AVOID CATCHALL BOX-TICKING ONLINE OPERATORS:

This, because each trade mark has a special job to do and should convey your products & services USPs to market. Perhaps you have chosen a colour for your logo that international marketing research suggests wont work as well as perhaps another; and, perhaps your wording in say, a combined mark may encounter optimization barriers et al. Unless you spend a few minutes with someone with marketing core-competency and/or indeed sales nous to assist you in addressing such issues, you may succeed in registering a mark that fails to deliver on all fronts. Murray Stott views each application as a turnkey opportunity for  developing an ongoing personal relationship with each client for going forward …
