Take Your Business to the Next Level

Many people desire to start their own business.  However, they are unaware of the most important ingredient in operating an efficient business. This key ingredient is vital to the very existence and viability of the business – PLANNING.  As a matter of fact, the Small Business Association (SBA) estimates that 80% of start-up businesses fail in the first three (3) years of operation due to the lack of planning.  Therefore, it is crucial to convert your ideas into a Business Plan (action plan).

Compu-Perfect Professional Services is a business-consulting firm that PROVIDES BUSINESS PLANS that have all the essential elements required by the SBA and major funding institutions such as banks, private investors, and credit unions.  Our plans are suitable for:

Benefits of Trademarks

Your brand is your identity and an important part of your marketing strategy. Having a federally registered trademark increases your credibility in your market, and enables you to prevent others from using your mark or a mark similar to yours in a manner that could harm your business.  The Benefits of Trademark Registration are:

• Federally registered trademarks are protected throughout the United States rather than in one state.

• Federal registration provides evidence that you own your trademark.  If you ever sue someone for trademark infringement, this fact will save you a great deal of time and legal fees.

• You will be able to file suit in federal court rather than state court.

• As an owner of a federally registered trademark, you are entitled to “treble damages”, which means you can recover three times your actual damages from the trademark infringer.

• You may also be able to recover any profits that the defendant earned while infringing your trademark, as well as any attorneys fees you incur during litigation.

• Federal registration provides nationwide “constructive notice” to others that the registered trademark belongs to you. If your trademark is infringed, the infringer cannot defend his conduct by arguing he did not know about your trademark.

• After five years, federally registered trademarks become “incontestable”.  That is, your exclusive right to use the trademark is conclusively established, making it extremely difficult for another party to challenge your trademark.

• Your trademark rights can last indefinitely, as long as you comply with the necessary procedures for renewing your trademark.

************************

The process of trademark and design registration doesn’t need to be expensive or confusing. Karmen A. Booker of Compu-Perfect Professional Services can make the registration applications on your behalf, and we can provide full support issues such as:

• Advice on suitability and registrability of names, logos and designs
• Searches against intended names and logos and checking on availability
• Advice on selecting appropriate classes of goods and services for registration

The Power Source for the Kingdom-Minded Entrepreneur

The kingdom-minded entrepreneur must study the Word of God to gain knowledge of biblical principles that will transform your life and business.

The Power Source for the Kingdom-minded Entrepreneur is a powerful e-book that includes 91 biblical scriptures that are designed to impact the kingdom-minded entrepreneur’s business and position you to takeover the marketplace.

God’s Word, when spoken out in faith, produces results. The Word does not return void, but prospers in whatever it is spoken over.

The principle of confessing the Word of God is powerful. The Greek word for “confess” is homologeo, which means to speak the same thing; to agree with; assert; to declare; to profess; to declare openly; to speak out freely.

It is very important to align your words (seeds) with the Word of God because there is power in words. As you water the words (seeds) with the Word of God, you will reap an abundant harvest.
