| Beware of this trademark scam. I received this for the 4th time today. Posted: 30 Mar 2018 02:32 PM PDT Most people have never filed for a trademark before and are completely oblivious to the process. I used to be one of them. Unfortunately, like in every industry, there are people out there whose job is to simply feed on the most vulnerable. This may not happen to everyone, but it has so far happened to me every time I have filed for a trademark. So what is the scam... After filing for a trademark, a company called ITR Register (itr-service.com) sends this in the mail demanding $1,380 (5X more than the actual trademark filing) to "register" and "publish" your trademark on their private online database www.itr-service.com. Although this may be true, the "registration" and "publication" have absolutely zero direct benefits to your company and is, to be blatantly honest, bullshit. Cheers to everyone on this subreddit who don't need to scam people in order to make it. Keep that shit up. EDIT: Someone just informed me to file a complaint with the FTC. For those who have also received this in the mail, here is the link. [link] [comments]  |
| How to grow your Facebook page ‘likes’ from scratch? (Without a budget!) Posted: 30 Mar 2018 03:37 PM PDT I am embarking on a side-project that suggests and curates the best tools for a startup's marketing ambitions. The idea has gathered some early traction with a decent number of people subscribing for early access with their email and following developments on Twitter etc. However, Facebook is another beast… Without paying to promote your page, how would you get your first 200-300 relevant page likes? I'm keen not to default to my existing network as I'm looking for ideas and tools beyond that. It's also not a page that's a good fit with my friends list. Relevant 'likes' are key! What do you think? Cheers! [link] [comments]  |
