Great Explanation on Trademarks and REALTORS

This isn’t the typical nerdy stats or opinion piece I normally do but I thought this was a great explanation of trademark law and also what makes a REALTOR different than a real estate agent:


I’m a big fan of what sets REALTORS apart for just licensed real estate agents – I believe the biggest distinction is in the ethical requirements of REALTORS.  While I cannot guarantee that all REALTORS will always do the correct and ethical thing, at least I know there is a system in place to encourage compliance and enforce the Code of Ethics when it is violated.

    I bet it can be frustrating to know that your product brand can become too much a household name. But hey, it’s better to be a winner… than nothing at all!

    Trademark that stuff. But doesn’t it seem petty to sue everyone who uses the name of your product? It’s a marketing battle, for sure.
