SellerGard CAN HELP BUILD YOUR INTELLECTUAL PORTFOLIO

The Karich & Associates SellerGard program protects e-commerce sellers with trademarks and patents. Patent, trademarks, and all forms of intellectual property (“IP”), are extremely valuable potential tools in your arsenal. Trademarks enable access to Amazon Brand Registry (ABR) and Enhanced Brand Content (EBC).  Patents enable sellers to dominate their marketplace, and protect their top spot, by removing competitive listings that attempt to copy successful products.  Schedule a free consultation to speak with an experienced patent and trademark attorney about how to develop your own IP portfolio, and how to leverage it to grow your company.
