How does Beijing choose a formal and authoritative agency registration company? First, the company must be an agent registration company with a formal business license recognized by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. If there is no company recognized through legal procedures, it is usually informal. Customers should not cooperate with subsidiaries easily.
Second, the company has a set of detailed systems and specific operational procedures to ensure that every service is legal and the services provided are supported by legal basis.
Third, the company has certain authority and good reputation in the industry. And has a long-term and stable cooperative relationship with more enterprises.
Look at the service
Besides the price, it depends on the service. First, the service links corresponding to the price should be comprehensive, and second, the services in each link should be professional.
Free service:
Free without exception is to attract customers and facilitate transactions.
There are always three ways to provide free services:
The first is that part of the business license is free, other documents are charged, and all government fees are reimbursed.
The second is that all documents are handled free of charge and all government expenses are reimbursed, but at the same time, transportation expenses and horse expenses need to be reimbursed.
The third way is that all documents are handled free of charge, and all government expenses are reimbursed. There is no need to reimburse transportation expenses, which is really free. However, it is necessary to bind and entrust an agent bookkeeping service for a certain period of time, and a high penalty is stipulated when the agreement is terminated. If the registration service of the agency is poor, it is difficult for you to terminate the agreement. Compensation is usually obtained by increasing the bookkeeping fee of accounting agents.
Charged service:
A certain service fee is charged to the agency registered company itself, and all government expenses are reimbursed, and there is no need to reimburse transportation expenses. This kind of paid service is generally comprehensive, and it is easier to issue service invoices and safeguard rights. In the future, if you entrust an agent to keep accounts, the price will be more favorable, and there will be no liquidated damages for early termination of the agreement. Compared with free service, fee-based service gives customers more right to speak and can confidently supervise the service. The disadvantage is that you need to pay.
The suggestion is to add all service fees (including two to three years of bundled agency bookkeeping service), government fees and transportation fees. And then compare, the lowest price is the best. At the same time, under any circumstances, don't agree with the agency bookkeeping company to terminate the agreement in advance, so you can choose again when you find that the service quality is poor.
Look at the price
Agency registration is free, and there are fees. Either way, the merchants will not provide free lunch, you can only compare which one is more favorable. General agent registration will be bundled with sales, giving you an optional package, which you can compare from the overall cost of one year, two years and three years.
Please pay attention to the terms of the early termination agreement signed when you registered with the agency. If a penalty is agreed, it may limit your freedom. Once the registration service quality of the agency fails to keep up, it is difficult for you to make a choice.

The importance of registering a trademark and applying for a patent lies in the use of a trademark, because it is only a sign that distinguishes other goods and services. Patents focus on monopoly, which can realize the possibility of seizing the market. Strictly speaking, if others don't infringe your trademark right, you don't have to rely on the trademark to attack your competitors (except to compete and compare with your competitors in brand building and product quality, but this is not the function of the trademark itself), but patents can.
If an enterprise only applies for a trademark and there is no relevant patent to protect it, then the intellectual property protection done by this enterprise is still very primary. Others can crush you with the patent right. Don't say that the products you produce have no technical content. There is a kind of patent right called design patent, whose main purpose is to protect? Design? Yes China's patent law implements the principle of first application, and there is no such thing as the prior use of trademarks, nor does it protect products or methods that have been used in advance but have not applied for patents. The following briefly introduces several enterprises. Due to negligence in trademark registration or patent application, trademarks are registered by others and patents are infringed.
First, the products of enterprises are popular products, which are at the same level as those of competitors. It is considered that it is the same whether the trademark is marked or not, and enterprises only need to do a good job of service. When the enterprise has done a good job in service, it has developed. Now it is found that it sells not only products but also services. It wants to distinguish its service quality from its competitors, so it wants to register its name as a trademark, but it has been registered by others.
Second, when the enterprise was first established, it was small in scale, and it didn't matter whether it was a trademark or not. It even thinks that the name of the enterprise is the brand of the enterprise, and there is no need to register a trademark. With the growth of the enterprise, it is found that its own enterprise name has been registered by others, and the enterprise has to re-register its trademark and re-build its brand.
Third, enterprises are trading (or agency) companies that sell products from other manufacturers, such as non-productive companies such as exclusive agents and brand agents, and often feel that it is not necessary to build their own brands. However, when the enterprise develops into a chain operation, it finds that its own enterprise name has been registered as a trademark by others, or it takes several years for the enterprise to promote other people's products (the goods it represents). After the agency is suspended, it finds that it has made a wedding dress for others in brand strategy and neglected the building of its own brand.
Fourth, the enterprise has begun to take shape, and has registered trademarks, even with the registered trademark of 10. At this time, enterprises often think that the protection of trademark registration has been put in place, so they can rest assured. But this time is often the most dangerous for enterprises, because with the growth of enterprises (the expansion of trademark awareness), brand-name phenomena began to appear, and some small enterprises began to compete unfairly around the trademarks of successful enterprises. A few years ago have gradually passed. Therefore, applying for a patent is also an urgent and necessary thing. Only in this way can we protect our own interests.
Therefore, to fully protect intellectual property rights, we should not only register trademarks or apply for patents, but also protect intellectual property rights as a whole and formulate relevant strategies.
