🔹 4. Legal Power to Remove Infringers
– If your trademark is registered, you can file complaints and takedown requests directly with marketplace IP teams.
🔹 5. Protect Your Product Identity
– Stops others from copying your product name, brand style, or even packaging design.
🔹 6. Expand Your Brand Beyond One Platform
– A registered trademark lets you legally use ™ or ® across multiple platforms, social media, and ad campaigns.
