How to create a trademark or trade name for a patented product, invention, or business

Creating a trademark or trade name for an invention or business.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

• prototype, sample of actual product, or patent specification.
• several sheets of paper.

1. * for each feature, and on each sheet, write only a few descriptive words.
2. * at the bottom of each feature description sheet, transfer name(s) of industries that can use your invention.
3. * a pattern of names should emerge. E.g. electronic products, if also made out of large pieces of metal (usually are), requires maintenance (usually do)- a good place to start for a solid trademark or tradename is “Lubetron®” a fictitious name we created. Notice that getting a trademark is recommended.

Tips & Warnings

• Now back to creating a tradename or trademark for your new product or business. As an Inventor or executive, you probably do not have the time to create and research a tradename professionally.
• Anyone is free to grab the above fictitious trademark we created for illustration purposes- let us know if you do intend to do so!
