Hello everyone,I’m a newbie but am getting ready to build the foundation and processes for a wholesaling business.One questions I can’t seem to find an answer for:If I come up with a brand name, should I trade mark it and then do business under my personal name?

There are scammers who use the TM symbol but in reality they aren't trade marked at all.

That rate of return made it unfavorable compared to other markets where you can achieve greater returns for less cash out-of-pocket.As my trademark saying goes, "Live where you want.
