| Any way to know for sure if your brand is trademarkable before filing? |

| 80% of trademark applications receive an office action and get rejected. What then? |
Since these services are not authorized to provide legal advice or to communicate with the Trademarks Office on your behalf, you will need to find an outside attorney or deal with all the legal back-and-forth yourself. Failure to respond to the satisfaction of the Trademarks Office will result in the application getting permanently denied.

Dee Snider TWISTED SISTER
We trademarked Twisted Sister five years before we released our first record. It was THAT important. I only wish Trademark Factory®️ was around back then. The best part about what they do is if your trademark doesn’t go through, you get all your money back! Nobody else does this.

Dan Lok CEO of CLOSERS.COM
I’ve worked with many law firms and lawyers… Working with Andrei and Trademark Factory®—because of their set fee and a money-back guarantee—gave me so much more confidence and made me so much more comfortable doing business with them. I recommend all entrepreneurs to trademark their brands through Trademark Factory®.
Jared Falk DRUMEO
Biggest thing for us when it comes to trademarks, we don’t understand how to do it. I’m a drummer, I don’t have any expertise in trademarking. You’ve got it figured out. Not a lot was required on my part. You made it really simple, cost-effective and awesome for us.
Isabelle Mercier BUILD TO ROCK
Online brands are easy to steal. I have big plans for BUILD TO ROCK®, so we decided to protect it. Usually, when you work with lawyers, you never know what the bill is going to be in the end. You do with Trademark Factory®. If you’re looking to trademark your brand, I don’t see why you would go anywhere else than Trademark Factory®.
Michael Starr STEEL PANTHER
If I ever want to pay somebody by the hour, it wouldn't be lawyers and trademarking companies, if you know what I mean... With Trademark Factory®️, you pay once—and you either get your trademark or you get your money back. No other firm that I know of offers anything like that.
Shawne Merriman LIGHTS OUT
The only reason I was able to stand up to the multi-billion-dollar bullies is because I trademarked my brand—and because I did it correctly. Trademarking services with a guaranteed result for a guaranteed budget that Trademark Factory® offers is literally lights out for all the other options out there!
Lisa Sasevich SPEAK TO SELL
Our trademark has given us a lot of power. It’s because when you name the game—and I’ll add, when you trademark the game,—you OWN the game. The best part about Trademark Factory®’s irresistible offer is, if you can’t get the result you’re looking for, they don’t want to keep your money. I think it’s a great way to start a relationship.
If you're an entrepreneur trying to grow your business, and if you haven't trademarked your brand, there's one thing you need to know...
Without a filed trademark application, you are wasting your time, money, and energy building a brand that:
① you can never own; or that
② someone can take away from you at any time.
If someone had already trademarked a brand similar to the one you have in mind, you are essentially building someone else’s brand.
It’s just a matter of time before they notice you and force you to rebrand and pay them every dime you made under what turns out to be THEIR brand—or even more.
Or, you may be lucky and your brand is still trademarkable today. But it doesn’t mean it will be available tomorrow.
Thousands of trademark applications are filed every day—and any one of these trademark applications could easily crush your hopes for your brand’s future.
What’s worse is that, literally, every single day you pass up on protecting your brand, you expose yourself and your business to more and more of these risks.
Here are 5 reasons trademarking your brand should be your #1 priority as a business owner.
Trademarking takes a long time.
On average, it will take over a year for your trademark to go through all stages from filing to registration. It means that if you think you might need a trademark in 6 months, you're already half a year too late.
There are no other legal ways to protect your brand.
Incorporating your company, registering an LLC, registering a domain name and a bunch of social media profiles, copyrighting your logo, putting a TM sign next to your name—NONE of this will protect your brand. If it was possible to securely protect your brand without trademarks, companies and entrepreneurs like you wouldn't be filing millions of trademarks every single year.
If someone files a trademark application to protect a brand SIMILAR to yours even ONE DAY before you do, you may be forced to rebrand.
Their brand doesn't even need to be the same as yours. They don't even need to have it registered. All they need to do is FILE their trademark one day before you. With trademarks, it's all about timing. Whoever does it first, wins.
Your brand must be trademarked if you are considering selling, licensing, franchising, or expanding your business.
If not, then at best, someone is going to grab your company for pennies on the dollar, because your valuation is going to take a massive hit. In many cases, you will not be able to find investors, franchisees, licensees, or buyers for your business at all. And again, remember, the trademarking process takes a year on average...
If you have a registered trademark, you can quickly and effectively deal with infringement of your brand on online platforms like Amazon, YouTube, Facebook, etc.
All you need to do is provide them with the number of your trademark registration certificate, give them a link that shows infringing use, and they'll take care of everything on your behalf. BUT this only works for trademarks that are already registered. So if you care about your online reputation (and in today's world EVERYONE should), getting your brand trademarked is no longer optional. It's no longer something you can afford to think about. It's a must-have.
Unlike everyone else in this industry, we offer result-based services that take care of your ENTIRE trademarking process… From start to finish.
We don’t just file your trademark application and leave you on your own like the "file-and-pray" services do.
We don't file your trademark and then charge you by the hour to deal with office actions, objections, and refusals like the "file-and-pay" attorneys and law firms do.
We are the ONLY firm in the world that will get your brand trademarked for ONE FLAT FEE or give you a FULL REFUND if we don’t deliver the results that you need.
We offer trademarking services with a guaranteed result for a guaranteed budget so you don't waste your time and money on trademarks that don't go through.
One fixed flat fee for the entire process.
From start to finish, from filing to registration—no matter how complex your process becomes, your initial fee covers it all.
Conducting a comprehensive trademark search to confirm your brand is trademarkable before you file your application? Included!
Responding to an office action alleging that your trademark is descriptive? Covered.
Responding to an office action alleging that your trademark is confusingly similar to another previously filed or registered trademark? Covered!
Doing the back and forth with the Trademarks Office if they issue a post-allowance office action relating to your specimens of use? Included.
Trademarking is a long and complex process, no matter who does it for you.
Our goal is to handle all of its complexities for you without you having to guess how much the whole thing is going to cost, one way or the other.
Double Peace-of-Mind Guarantee.
If our comprehensive trademark search reveals any registrability issues with your brand, you can get a full refund. No questions asked. This way, essentially you get a free opinion why we think your brand is problematic.
If we told you your brand is registrable and it doesn't get approved by the government, you get a full refund. Doesn't matter how much time we've spent trying to convince the Trademarks Office to approve it, if you don't get the result we said you should expect, we don't get to keep your money.
We really wanted to create a no-brainer of an offer for growth-minded entrepreneurs who are serious about protecting their brands so that it moves all of the risks onto us to make sure you're not wasting your time and money on trademarks that don't go through.
We actually give a damn
Protecting you from getting ripped off means more to us than you will ever know.
Trademark Factory® was founded by Andrei Mincov who started his career as an intellectual property lawyer when his father, famous Russian composer Mark Minkov, caught a radio station that stole his song—and turned it into a commercial for Samsung without his permission.
After two years of legal battles, after taking this case all the way up to the second-highest court in the nation, he got his father the vindication he was looking for.
And he got hooked on IP.
During his 25-year career, he's helped thousands of clients protect their IP.
The list covers everyone from little-known authors, entrepreneurs, and startups to celebrities like J.K. Rowling and multi-billion-dollar companies like Apple, Google, and Microsoft.
He started Trademark Factory® in 2013 out of frustration that there wasn't anyone out there who would combine the convenience of cheap trademarking websites with the highest level of services you’d expect from experienced attorneys—just without their ridiculous hourly fees.
Someone who would provide trademarking services for a fixed fee that would cover the entire process from start to finish.
Where you would see right away what the whole thing was going to cost with no hidden fees.
Someone who would deal with any and all office actions and issue a full refund if the trademark was denied.
That’s why Trademark Factory® operates under a simple principle: for one fixed fee, we get your trademark approved—or you get all your money back.
We have a 99.3% rate of success, unheard of in the trademarking industry.
Seriously, if your brand is worth trademarking at all, it’s worth getting it done right.
Over the years, we’ve helped thousands of growth-minded entrepreneurs build amazing brands.
And we would love to help you.
