Trademark Basics for Influencers: Learn how to protect your influence with trademarks

Your brand is you and your influence as a content creator has value that should be protected. Christina is an attorney for Trademarks Customer Outreach with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), the agency responsible for registering trademarks. This meetup is to educate content creators on how to build their personal brand and protect their influence with trademarks through the federal trademark registration process. Christina has sought to merge her personal passion for the arts and fashion and professional pursuits in public service which has been a catalyst for her creative pursuits as @sharpandsoundstyle on all platforms.

In this session, you’ll learn:

• Trademark fundamentals
• The benefits of federal registration
• Filing and registration
• Free resources from the USPTO to get you started
