As a business becomes better known for the products it produces or the services it renders, competitors will no doubt try to capitalize on the success. However, many companies may not recognize the importance of utilizing federal trademark laws to protect more than just the name on the front of the building. For example, the names of specific products, specific features of products, and even specific services associated with a service business are potentially subject to protection under United States trademark law.

Sooner or later, a business’ ambitions will reach beyond the pocketbooks of the founders, family, and friends, and outside capital becomes necessary to realize the venture’s potential. There are several ways to acquire capital, and each method has benefits and drawbacks depending on the business’ industry and stage of development. Choosing the right capital structure through a combination of financing methods is essential to bring in outside money while maximizing profitability, stability, and flexibility.
