Business PossibilityShould your brand be successful, a trademark is an intangible asset that has the potential to be quite valuable. Think about brands like Tide, Nike, or McDonald's. Businesses can make huge amounts of royalties through licensing agreements or even the sale of ownership to interested parties.
