    PROGRESS THREAD:- 3 ventures > Menswear Brand - Expanding abroad - New sales channels.

    Seems like if you want to do it individual trademark then its easy. However when you try to do group (group of countries in one go) then that seems a bit complicated. I need to get the trademark for entire Europe, so there will be some major paper works.

    Hey, First of all, you will need to realise that we do things differently. We don't directly serve the end customer, we sell to wholesalers, now since I am starting a new brand so I will sell directly to the end customer. Secondly, I am in fashion world and how we do market research in fashion...

    PROGRESS THREAD:- 3 ventures > Menswear Brand - Expanding abroad - New sales channels.

    Hey, Here's where you do the UK trademark:- http://www.ipo.gov.uk/types/tm.htm Apparently, in here you can do the trademark for every country in the world:- http://www.wipo.int/services/en/index.html#protect But this site looks pretty confusing. Where did you get your US trademark done?

    PROGRESS THREAD:- 3 ventures > Menswear Brand - Expanding abroad - New sales channels.

    Hey every one, Just realised that every one is talking about the current project which they are working on and I am kind of derailing their thread by talking about my ventures, so thought it will be better if I make one of my own thread and keep you guys updated on what I am doing. So, from...

    Directing Traffic Towards an Ebay Account WIthout A Store?

    MARKETING 
    Well, are you a TRS? I mean Top rated seller? If not then you need to become a top rated seller, otherwise you can't compete with the others. Ebay has become like google now, those who are TRS, they get ranked higher. @Turbo just posted while I was writing this, and he pretty much nailed it.

    How to validate a new idea? Furniture

    IDEA 
    From my experience, thats not true. I did import sofa from China for my London house. The price was 1/4th. In DFS they quoted me that sofa for £9000 and I will have to wait for 6-8 weeks. I got that same sofa, but with additional seats for £3100 including shipping, customs clearance etc. I got...

    How to validate a new idea? Furniture

    IDEA 
    Yup, thats why they take 6-8 weeks for delivery because once you order then they purchase it from China and get it shipped to UK. Well, about 90% of the items are made to order basis, they only keep samples and couple of hot selling items in stock. I even know which City in China they get them...

    I didn't write any review yet. Will do later on. I do have several apartments in UK that I rented out. I didn't rent them out on Airbnb as I didn't know how it works (till I saw this book) and also didn't have the confidence in that as it was new to me. So all my apartments are rented out on...

    Well, I will get a public liability insurance if I were you. That should cover you if something unfortunate happens. Yes it will cost a bit, but at least you won't have to sleep with your one eyes open. As for box cover, one of the cheap and easy to print on the box is actually Rubber stamp. It...

    Hey, I don't know what products you are working with, so can't give you definite answer. However, if they registered that pattern of design then you can't use that design in any way. For example, if you look at true religion jeans, that design in the back pocket is registered pattern, you...

    What do you guys think of Jordan Belfort?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Ok, since the OP asked what do we think of JB, so here's my opinion:- He is a brilliant sales guy, no doubt about it. Lots of people can learn and benefit from him. Some times when I need some motivation after getting NO in sales then I watch the clip of that film and it charges me back again...
