BEFORE YOU REGISTER THAT BUSINESS.

Often, when people reach out to us at Glimsource for business registration and development, our first question is always: “What is your business about?’

Some people register businesses for registering sake or just to own a company as their friends. Some cannot explain their business idea or model in a minute or two.

From our observations over the years, most entrepreneurs and business owners do little or no market research before kicks-tarting their business and it is on this premise we write.

Simply put, market research is the process of gathering, analyzing, and interpreting information about a particular market or industry, in order to understand the needs and preferences of potential customers and to make informed business decisions.

Market research helps business organizations gain insights into customer behaviour, preferences, and buying habits and identify opportunities and threats in the market.

Market research could be primary or secondary. Primary research involves gathering new data directly from customers through surveys, focus groups, interviews, etc. while secondary research involves analyzing existing data from a variety of sources, such as government reports, industry publications, or competitor analysis.

Market research is used by companies to make informed decisions about product development, pricing, marketing, and sales strategies. It helps companies to identify market trends, evaluate customer feedback, and gain insights into the competitive landscape.

Effective market research can lead to improved product offerings, increased customer satisfaction, and a competitive advantage in the market

Below are a few advantages of effective market research.

1. Identifying Market Opportunities: Market research helps companies to identify new and emerging market trends, unmet customer needs, and areas of opportunity for growth.

This can help companies to develop new products or services, expand into new markets, and increase their competitive advantage.

2. Understanding Customer Needs: Market research helps companies to gain insights into customer preferences, behaviour, and needs.

By understanding what customers want and need, companies can develop products and services that meet those needs, and tailor their marketing and sales strategies to be more effective.

3. Reducing Business Risks: Market research can help companies to reduce business risks by providing them with information about potential challenges and threats in the market.

By understanding the competitive landscape and customer preferences, companies can make informed decisions about product development, pricing, and marketing strategies.

4. Improving Customer Satisfaction: By understanding customer needs and preferences, companies can improve the quality of their products and services, and provide better customer support. This can lead to increased customer satisfaction and loyalty, and ultimately drive business growth.

In a nutshell, market research is a critical tool for businesses looking to succeed in a competitive marketplace.

It provides valuable insights into customer behaviour, market trends, and business opportunities, and helps companies to make informed decisions about product development, marketing, and sales strategies.

It is our mission to nurture, build and project African entrepreneurs and businesses at the international marketplaces, arming them with relevant global best developmental and support services.

AVOID THE "WHY ME" STORY: TRADEMARK. (Part 1)

Building a business can be demanding. Choosing the right slogans, designing captivating logos can be tedious as well.

If you have an invention, would you want it to be replicated without your consent? Would you want to make money from this invention? If not, then think about intellectual property rights protections listed on the design.

Before "them run you street', protect yourself today and avoid the "why me" story at last. In this four (4) part series, we'll show you how to avoid the "why me" story via intellectual property rights protection.

For today, we will begin with trademark. What is a trademark and what are the benefits?

WHAT IS TRADEMARK?

Simply put, a trademark is a symbol, word, phrase, design, or combination of these elements that distinguishes the goods or services of one business from those of another.

BENEFITS OF TRADEMARK.

Trademarks provide numerous benefits to businesses, including:

Legal protection: Trademarks are legally protected intellectual property, which means that a business that owns a trademark has the exclusive right to use that trademark in connection with the goods or services it represents. If another business uses the same or a similar trademark, it can be sued for trademark infringement.

Exclusive Rights: A trademark gives the owner exclusive rights to use the mark for the goods or services it represents. This means that no one else can use a similar mark or a confusingly similar mark in the same industry or market.

Brand recognition: Trademarks help businesses build brand recognition and loyalty. A strong trademark can help a business stand out in a crowded market and become easily recognizable to consumers.

Competitive advantage: A trademark can give a business a competitive advantage over other businesses in the same industry. By owning a trademark, a business can prevent others from using a similar mark and diluting its brand.

Licensing opportunities: A business that owns a trademark can license it to others for a fee. This can be a significant source of revenue for the trademark owner.

Increased value: A trademark can increase the value of a business. If a business owns a valuable trademark, it can be a valuable asset that can be sold or licensed to others.

Overall, trademarks are an important tool for businesses to protect their brand, build customer loyalty, and increase their competitive advantage.

REGISTERED NAME VS BRAND NEW: DIFFERENCES YOU SHOULD KNOW.

Dear Entrepreneur,

Did you know that there is a clear difference between your Company's registered name and your brand name? Let's show you the differences and their usage.

The registered name of a Company is the legal and the official name of the Company upon Incorporation with the Corporate Affairs Commission. This name appears on your CAC's Incorporation documents.

This is the Company's name for official correspondences, legal documentation, procurements etc. For clarification, this name must be registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission.

On the other hand, a brand name is any name that is used to identify a particular product or service a Company renders.

While a Company's registered name is one, there is no limit on the number of brand names that a company can have. It is a choice.

It's also possible that a registered name can also serve as a brand name upon certain conditions being fulfilled.

More so, while registering the official name is a must, there is no obligation to register the brand name. However it is prudent to protect a brand name via trademark registration for exclusive usage.

Still, there exists a difference between a brand name and trademark. A brand represents the name used to identify a particular product or service, the Trademark is used to identify the brand and separate it from every other product.

Trademark covers more than just the name, it covers marks, symbols, logo phrases etc that are identified with a particular brand.

It is also noteworthy that just as a brand name, a registered company can have as many trademarks as it can afford.

Here are examples of brands and registered names.

Brand Name: Glimsource
Registered Name: Glimsource Limited

Brand Name: Google
Registered Name: Google LLC

Brand Name: Julius Berger
Registered Name: Julius Berger Nigeria Plc.

Do not become sad if the Corporate Affairs Commission disapproves your desired name for registration, talk to us, there is a way out.

The good news is that Glimsource, your famous Business Development Firm, is here to guide you develop and set up your business effortlessly.

Do you desire to secure a legal name, brand names and trademarks for your business? We're here for you.

Do you desire to develop, register, set up a proper business today? Glimsource is here for you. Talk to us now!

BENEFITS OF TRADEMARK REGISTRATION

While a company registration enables you to operate business legally, it does not protect the brand identity. Trademark registration protects the brand’s identity

Trademark registration differentiates products and services from others, increasing market value of your products and services.

More so, it gives you an exclusive right of usage among other benefits. Do not use "™️" on your logo or products if it's not trademarked.
