Tips from Mama IP

January 23, 2026 

Mama IP shares helpful tips (not legal advice) in a 14-minute conversation concerning selecting and using strong trademarks. Many business owners unknowingly choose marks that are:

• generic,
• descriptive, or
• too similar to existing marks,

leading to rejections by the U.S. Trademark Office or cease and desist letters from prior users—often resulting in expensive rebranding. Avoid these costly setbacks by learning trademark basics with Mama IP.
