In this 1 minute interview highlight, Marc Hankin of Hankin Patent Law clearly explains the difference between Patents and Trademarks.

Transcript: 

Marc: A patent protects an invention, it could be an article of manufacture or a process, it could be a method. And, patents protect something that does something or that is made in a certain way. There's also something called a design patent which does protect the aesthetic of an otherwise utilitarian product, so the way something looks. Trademarks protect the source of origin of a brand. So, that could be a slogan, a logo, a brand name, it could actually be a color or a smell, but it's something that tells you the source of the goods or services. So, a trademark and a patent protect different aspects of a product, and it's possible to get patent and trademark and even copyright protection on the same product, but you're protecting different aspects of that same product.

Craig West discusses the impact exit planners can have by helping prepare financial, business, and personal matters.

Transcript: 

Craig: The big change for me, and certainly for most of my advisors and people that have done the secret program in Australia, or a lot of the I would imagine who have done it here, is that you're actually doing something quite tangible that really helps a business owner in terms of their financial and personal lifestyle outcome. So, as an accountant, I used to lodge tax returns and I used to lodge lots of other compliance documents, and at the end of the day, you really don't help people. But, if you can get an exit plan right, and I've got a number of examples where I've worked with clients over 3-5 years to really prepare them, their family, their business, their financials, their personal situation for an exit, and if you can achieve that very successfully, you make a substantial difference to that person and their family.

Joan Pounds of Monetization Magic discusses how she helps internet-based businesses get started.

Transcript: 

Bill: With all the social media platforms to choose from, why has YouTube become so popular? We asked Joan Pounds

Joan: The younger generations do a lot more visually, so a lot of times your YouTube videos and things like that are better ways to reach out to them. I found out, through my son, actually, who's a teenager, that YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world. And I had no idea, I never even though about going to YouTube to find out how to do something, and the beauty of YouTube is, we can create our own videos right now from our phones and upload them to YouTube, and the neat thing about that is you're creating your own celebrity during that time. People buy from those they know, like, and trust, and that's one way for people to reach out and begin to know you and to like you and to trust you.
