Register Your Business Name
| |
| When you begin selling franchises, you will want to have obtained a federal registration for your business name. This is obtained by making a filing with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. A franchisor licenses the business name to its franchisees, so it is important that the franchisor own and protect the name as much as possible. However, it is not necessary to have already obtained name registration before beginning to sell franchises. |

It is important to realize that, while registration affords the greatest possible legal protection against infringement or misuse of a trademark, it is, and can never be, a failsafe guarantee against all problems relating to trademark usage. |
