i want to start a computer networking business
Starting a computer networking business?
Check out the sources for some handy sites.
Do you have a name in mind for your computer networking business? Prior to investing your time, money %26amp; effort into a name, it is strongly advised that comprehensive research be conducted to ensure that the name you're interested in is truly available.
This entails searching the pending %26amp; registered Federal and State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files. Then, if clear, you can decide if you would like to file for a Federal or a State trademark.
Research is needed to make sure your trade name is legally available, before opening, before expansion, before incorporation or before designing your logo. Similarities in sound, appearance and meaning affect you too!
There are 16+ million trade names in use in the United States. Similar names matter, if close in sound, appearance or meaning. Similar names in related classes, distribution channels and customer matter too. You are affected by Common Law use (14 million), State Trademarks (500,000) and Federal Trademarks (2 million).
Reply:Best of luck! You may want to start a networking business, but keep in mind that accounting, record-keeping and managing will occupy a significant portion of your time, taking you away from what you really enjoy - building, maintaining and troubleshooting networks. :)
Sometimes working for someone else is worth it, to avoid the hassles I mentioned. If you don't mind dealing with those aspects of business on a daily basis, more power to you.
