Selling a Business with a Trademark

Are you considering selling your business? It's essential to have a registered trademark in place to ensure that you receive the maximum return on your investment. Before putting your business on the market, it's important to consider several factors that potential buyers will scrutinize, including whether the business can function without its current director(s) and whether there is a recurring income from the customer base. One critical consideration is what the business owns from an intellectual property perspective, such as trademarks.

Should I Trademark my Business Before Selling it?

Trademarking your business before selling can offer potential buyers peace of mind that they are purchasing a credible, protected brand that customers can trust. Trademarks are also important for building credibility and attracting more significant clients, making your business more profitable.
