In today’s competitive market, your brand is more than just a name or logo — it’s the essence of your business identity. It represents your values, reputation, and connection with customers. In Argentina, as in any growing economy, protecting your brand from unauthorized use is critical for long-term success. That’s where ProfitMark comes in. As experts in intellectual property rights and trademark services, we help businesses in Argentina and beyond safeguard their unique identity through professional and reliable brand registration.
What’s the Difference Between a Brand and a Trademark?
Though the terms “brand” and “trademark” are often used interchangeably, they represent different concepts. A brandencompasses the overall image and perception of your business — including your name, logo, colors, messaging, and even the emotional response your product or service evokes. A trademark, on the other hand, is the legal protection for specific elements of your brand such as your logo, slogan, or business name.
For example, in Argentina, well-known brands like Quilmes, Arcor, and Patagonia have strong brand identities, but each also relies on registered trademarks to prevent imitation and ensure exclusive rights to their logos and names. Brand registration gives you the legal authority to take action if someone tries to profit from your brand’s reputation or confuse customers with a similar name or design.
