You’ve got the brand. Now it’s time to protect it. File It Right is a live workshop designed to walk you step-by-step through the federal trademark application process, without the confusion, legal jargon, or “hope for the best” energy. Whether you’re planning to DIY your application or just want to understand the process before handing it off to a pro, this workshop will help you confidently navigate what the USPTO actually needs from you and what’s at stake if you get it wrong. We’ll cover: • What you really need before you apply (hint - it’s more than just a good name) • Key decisions you’ll make in the application—and how to make them wisely • Common mistakes that get applications rejected or delayed • How to file an Intent-to-Use vs. In-Use application • Real-time walkthrough of the USPTO online system • What to expect after you click submit You’ll leave knowing exactly what to do, what to avoid, and how to move forward with clarity and confidence, whether you file it yourself or outsource it later.
