I'm starting my own business and am trying to figure out what I need to do to get it started.
How do I go about gettin my shit trademarked so no one else can steal it. I tried searching for it but couldnt really find many specifics, at least not anything that made a lot of sense to me. can anyone help me get started?
and also, how do I figure out if my name has been used before? from what I have found, I have two options...either pay a company to find out for me, or else I can just chance it and apply for a copyright for my name but if its taken I dont get a refund. is this correct? you'd think the government would make it easier for someone to start up a business.
also what else do i need? do i need some sort of license? I am starting a clothing company
