On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Andrei Mincov, founder and CEO of Trademark Factory, a company that specialises in trademark registration & protection. On this episode Mincov shares his insights & experiences on the importance of trademarks for entrepreneurs and businesses, and the common mistakes and misconceptions that people have about the trademarking process. He will also explores the role of IP in business growth & success, & the strategies &best practices for protecting & leveraging your ideas & brands. KEY TAKEAWAYS My dad was a famous composer in Russia. A radio station that stole a song he wrote & turned it into an ad for Samsung without his permission, at the time I was attending law school & he asked me for help. I didn't know anything about IP but in 1996 nobody in Russia had any idea about IP because Russia had just changed from Soviet law into free market law, so I gave it a shot & as part of that journey I became passionate about helping people who created something to protect it from others who want to steal it from them. Trademarking is mostly the same around the world, there are small differences here & there & you need to understand them to be successful in those countries. But, this isn't something I think entrepreneurs should care about, that's why providers exists who can navigate them through this. What you should know are the basics, it's not as complex as you might think: What is trademarking? What are you protecting? What do you need to show to the government to prove it's a brand & not a cute name or image? The biggest misconceptions I see with trademarks is that you don't own the word or the image you own the mental association between that work, phrase or image & specific products & services that you sell. Why trademark? If you plan to be in business for several/many years, the brand will become the most valuable asset of your business. It makes it easier t=for you to attract better talent, attract better leads at a lower cost to advertise at lesser cost. Even if you file your trademark a day before someone else does, you're good. The problem is you don't know when someone else will file for a trademark, so you should do it early or else someone else will do it and you won't be protected, even if you came up with the name first.  BEST MOMENTS ‘The trademarking process takes a long time & I've seen a lot of entrepreneurs being taken advantage of by unscrupulous firms that claim to be able to trademark their brand for $49.' ‘The success rate of your trademark application is directly related to your willingness to understand the basics.' ‘On a general level, what trademarks protect is the brand, whether it's the name, tagline, logo, or some combination.' ‘Trademarks is the only type of IP that you can own, in theory, forever. Copyrights, patents, industrial right expire, if you renew your trademark every 10 years you can own it forever.' ABOUT THE GUEST Andrei Mincov, the founder and CEO of Trademark Factory, is a renowned expert in intellectual property law. With a career that began with a fight to protect his father's music, Mincov has since written multiple books on the subject, including an international bestseller, & has helped thousands of entrepreneurs and companies protect their IP. His passion for ensuring that hardworking entrepreneurs are not taken advantage of led him to found Trademark Factory, the only firm in the world that offers trademark registration services with a guaranteed result for a guaranteed budget. When he's not helping secure trademarks, Mincov enjoys living in Dubai with his wife & 3 kids & playing his one-of-a-kind DrumDesk.

Join us as we delve into the fascinating life and career of Andrei Mincov, a renowned trademark attorney with a journey that spans continents. In this episode, Andrei shares his remarkable story, from his upbringing in Russia to his migration to Canada and finally settling in Dubai.We explore the pivotal moments and influences that shaped Andrei's path, including his transition into becoming a trademark attorney and the profound impact of his father's involvement in his first trademark lawsuit. Through personal anecdotes and professional insights, Andrei provides a unique perspective on the legal world, trademark law, and the intersection of culture and business across diverse global landscapes. Tune in to gain valuable insights and inspiration from Andrei Mincov's captivating journey.

Each year, roughly 700,000 American businesses or individuals submit a trademark application. That may sound like a considerable number, but Andrei Mincov — a superstar trademark lawyer based in Dubai, says it's far less than it should be. Before starting The Trademark Factory, his global consultancy that provides start-to-finish trademark registration services, Andrei worked for Baker & McKenzie, one of the world's largest international law firms. His clients there included Apple, Microsoft, Sun, and Dell, which turned to Andrei to help them avoid the pitfalls of filing and defending their marks. Andrei's client base now includes many small and mid-size companies that frequently do not file formal trademarks or fail to file them for all their brands. That, as he explains, is a significant and potentially very costly oversight. Learning about trademarks is not only valuable for every business executive and entrepreneur, but it's also fascinating to discover the most common trademark landmines and how to avoid them.

You know you need to protect your brand as you’re building a business—but where do you start? As an entrepreneur you need to protect your intellectual property and what you’re working so hard to build. It begins with choosing a brandable name and getting it trademarked. The process is lengthy and daunting, but Andrei Mincov is here to make it easier. In this episode of Just the Tips, we interview Andrei Mincov, founder of the Trademark Factory®. He began his career in Russia and had the opportunity to work with big names such as Apple and Microsoft. When he relocated to Canada he had to start from scratch and go through law school again. So he decided he wasn’t going to go the route of working for a major corporation. Instead, he took his love for trademark law and entrepreneurial spirit and started his own business. Outline of This Episode [0:42] Protect the brand you’re working to build [2:30] Andre’s journey in trademark law [6:20] The journey from Russia to Canada [7:10] Why he started his own business [9:00] How do you protect your intellectual property? [10:50] How to know you have a trademarkable brand [14:50] When do you start the trademark process? [19:40] Your trademark is your insurance policy [22:50] Typical costs associated with the trademark process [26:00] Dean’s personal story of having to re-brand [30:40] Check out Andrei’s business: trademarkfactory.com/tips 3 simple tips to make your business brandable The only way to compete in the industry is to have a brandable name that you strive to protect. Your business name is your intellectual property and you need to protect your ideas. To do so you need to build a protectable brand. So what does that look like? Your brand needs to be unique. Your name needs to be innovative and what you offer needs to be different than (or a better process than) everyone else. Your brand needs to be memorable among your target market. Getting a trademark for a brand that makes no impact is useless, right? Your brand needs to be well-protected. This is where trademark law comes into play. A small business doesn’t have the money to dispute a trademark issue. It’s far better to spend the money on the front end, then lose thousands of dollars in legal fees—or your business. Don’t DIY your trademark research: Hire a trademark attorney Look, there are ways that you can research a brand name and find out if you can claim it. You can find a domain name and snag it. Great. You can do a trademark search or pay a 3rd party website to help you through the process. Inevitably, they will let you down.  You can search the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) but the results tend to be pretty overwhelming. The bottom line is—it is not wise to do the legwork yourself. Even if you deem that the brand name is available, the back and forth process of getting your trademark registered is exhausting. So what does Andrei recommend? Hire a trademark attorney—or consider working with his company, The Trademark Factory®.  Don’t wait for a sign from above—start the process now People often ask Andrei when to start the trademark process. His answer? Immediately. You can’t build a business and choose an arbitrary number and say “When the business is making (insert dollar amount here) then I will invest in the trademark”. There will be no good external validation.  Uber filed a trademark application 2 months before launching the business. Now it’s worth over 50 billion.  Jeff Bezos registered ‘Amazon’ and ‘Amazon books’ at the very beginning—he built an empire.  Andrei said Coca-Cola started as a “lemonade stand with a dream”. Now it’s a soft-drink know world-wide.  All of these brands started small but understood the importance of protecting what they knew they could build. A trademark is your insurance policy—you hope to never have to use it, but it’s there when you need it. Is it going to cost me an arm and a leg to hire a trademark attorney? If you’re doing the work yourself, it can cost a few hundred dollars (for specific numbers, check out USPTO.gov) but it will cost you a lot of time. It’s typically a 14-month process in the US and even longer in Canada—sometimes over 2 years! It’s worth your time to invest in a trademark lawyer. Andrei’s business gives you a unique alternative to working with a traditional trademark attorney. They charge a flat fee that is 100% refundable if they do not get you your trademark. If your desired name is taken and they cannot complete the process, there is no charge to you.  Listen to the whole episode of Just the Tips as we chat about Andrei’s experience, how Dean had to rebrand his business, a unique mechanism system and so much more!

Really it boils down to if you call yourself an entrepreneur and you spend any amount of time, energy and money working in your business do it toward something that is actually going to matter. I think what you are doing with this interview is a great thing because it shows that unless you have a big idea, a big aspiration, a big vision it's not really entrepreneurship its survival. There is nothing wrong with the survival stage but you have to understand what's the overall goal. Because I know that when people start their businesses, they have this big dream and then the day-to-day operations very often forget the big overarching reason why and I think that's probably the biggest mistake. Because at some point if you are staying small you should just quit and get a job because that that the end of the day is going to help you to avoid the frustrations of running a business that's not producing. And the only way to overcome that is to know why you are doing it, that your struggles is the price you are paying for something bigger. Be legendary, it's worth it.”…[Listen for More] Click Here for Show Notes To Listen or to Get the Show Notes go to https://wp.me/p6Tf4b-6X5

It's impossible to overstate the importance of being a great leader when you're working to build a team or an organization into something that will change the world and make things better for people. Today's guest Andrei Mincov founded Trademark Factory in 2013 to help entrepreneurs secure the legacy of their brands and preserve their hard work. Teams As you grow your team, as you grow your business, as you grow your dream, as you grow your vision, there comes a time when the leader can't come up with all the ideas. In order for the organization to grow, leaders need team members who help generate ideas and who provide initiative to improve things. You'll likely have some team members who simply have marching orders or tasks. Others will be responsible to help you move the organization forward. Those team members will have to have vision. They'll operate from your inspiration. Hiring Finding those visionary team members is different than hiring task-based team members. Andrei uses small, unique tasks to help make hiring decisions simpler. He might, for example, offer a jpeg with a typo or error in it and ask prospective employees to find the error. The intention would be to measure the candidate's attention to detail. He might also ask the candidate to build a video or a graphics project. This process helps him narrow the field because not every candidate is willing to jump through the required hoops to get the job. It also helps him determine who actually has the necessary skill set to accomplish the work. Without poring over countless resumes and applications he can narrow the field to the best candidates. If candidates aren't excited enough, in the beginning, to show you what they can do for you, how excited will they be after they are hired? [Tweet "It's hard to hire from a bunch of unknowns, but it's much easier to select employees from a smaller number of candidates you've already seen in action. #HiringLeaders"] Growth Leaders must have a compelling vision in order to grow a company. They should also likely have a track record of successfully accomplishing goals. Conveying thoughts and messages won't be enough to lead well. Leadership demands action and results. People will follow leaders who have vision and a successful track record. The better your business and the better your track record, the more likely you are to attract great people to surround you. Andrei shared that animals in the zoo don't care about ticket sales. They care about food and comfort and safety. Your team members are similar in that they care about basic things like provision and comfort. While you probably want them to have full ownership in your business, they likely never will. Your role is to provide enough vision for them to recognize that aligning themselves with your goal will benefit them personally. Building Smaller companies often fail to see that they are capable of building something that matters. They may have a really cool team or a really cool business and they assume it's a fluke. They don't take themselves seriously enough to worry about protecting their businesses. What steps would you take to protect yourself and your business if you knew that you would definitely succeed? This issue boils down to leadership, because if you don't have a vision of growing your company into something substantial, you'll miss an opportunity. Great leaders like Steve Jobs and Jeff Bezos know that they are building something that can change the world. They are building something that will help a bunch of people do a bunch of great stuff. When you have a vision toward the path to greatness, people will follow you. Do something that people will remember years from now.

With me today is Louis Stack, the founder and president of Fitter International. He has been, as he calls it, "Leading the World to Better Balance" since 1985. His brand Fitterfirst is recognized worldwide for supplying premium professional and personal products that help people prevent injury, recover from it, maintain balance and fitness and keep moving at work. Louis, a business owner, a national athlete and a father, has dedicated over 30 years to changing the way we approach office environment. His company stemmed from personal injuries, seeking a fix to his own discomfort. From there it has flourished into a worldwide, multimillion-dollar company that caters to families both young and old, high-performance athletes, injury and rehabilitation patients, and now includes the everyday office worker. As with most aspects of Fitterfirst, the "Active Office" concept was born from Louis’ own experience – after transitioning from being primarily an athlete to a full-time business owner, his body suffered the consequences of sitting, hunched over a computer day in and day out – he craved movement in his 9 to 5 routine. So rather than conform to the limitations of a sedentary office, he sought a solution to his problem, bringing in a ball chair and getting himself a sit-stand desk. Aided with his new productivity tools, Louis immediately felt an improvement in his quality of life and he knew it was the next track he would pursue with Fitterfirst. Fast forward to present day and the "Active Office" continues to be the fastest growing component of the Fitterfirst lineup. Louis is very involved in Fitterfirst, helping out in almost every aspect of the company. On any given day, he may be assisting the production team build the next round of Pro Fitters, or chatting with the marketing group about new promotional ideas he has. He can often be found at tradeshows doing what he does best: showing off Fitterfirst and demonstrating the large collection of wellness products his company offers. Aided by his wife Margaret, who runs the day-to-day aspects of the company, Louis continues to be the visionary for Fitterfirst, developing new products, promoting his business, and continuing to learn everyday on how to make his company the best it can be. In this interview, Louis shared his vision of three must-haves of every successful business and also discussed how he uses his brand to acquire more business. Get ready. Here it comes!

“To those of you building a business, if it’s worth promoting, it’s worth protecting.” - Andrei Mincov I believe, as business professionals, we are all aware of the importance of growing our businesses and marketing it correctly. It seems to be, however, that we aren’t as familiar with the importance of trademarking. It turns out, trademarking isn’t just for the big corporations but, in the words of today’s guest Andrei Mincov, for anyone who has a business worth promoting. Andrei has a lot of titles attached to his name. Everything from former intellectual property lawyer, entrepreneur, international best selling author, to founder of the Trademark Factory. His journey is as inspiring as it is all too common. Extremely successful in Russia, Andrei chose to leave his comfort zone and step into a whole new world, ultimately having to start all over again, in Canada. Whether it was back home in Russia, or here in Canada, Andrei has spent his life dedicated to sticking up for those who have a product they cherish and need protected. There are a lot of misconceptions around trademarking and copyright. In this episode, Andrei does an excellent job at clarifying some key points that every business owner, no matter how small the business, should know.   Episode 4  

Segment 1: In our Trends and Insights Segment we talk with author, speaker, coach and successful entrepreneur, Anastasia Button, about the value public speaking can have for your business.Segment 2: Our Success Interview is with the founder of Trademark Factory, Andrei Mincov. Andrei talks with us about how he created his own market niche to differentiate his company from his competitors.Segment 3: The Business Builder Segment focuses on tips for elevating your one-on-one and small group coaching so you can make the best use of your time and increase your earning potential. 

Can you think of one successful business without thinking of its brand? The answer is no, because the brand IS what we're thinking about when we're thinking of a successful business. If building a brand is important, then so is protecting it. Today, it's not enough to be good. It's not enough to be better. It's not even enough to be the best. You need to be the only one. You must have a legitimate claim to "We're the only ___ that does ___". There are several clever strategies that allow you to cement your uniqueness at a fraction of the cost of developing a truly unique product or service. That's what today's guest Andrei Mincov thinks. He became a copyright lawyer over 18 years ago when his father, a famous Russian composer, heard his music on the radio advertising an event by Samsung without his permission. He has since helped hundreds of creators and businesses. He has done work for many composers; designers; book writers, including J.K. Rowling; film directors; singers; artists; individual software...
