Unsure about the difference between trademarks and copyrights in online business? In this episode, we dive into the essential aspects of trademarking and copyrighting for online businesses. While trademarks are valuable for safeguarding the outward-facing elements of your business like names and logos, copyrights play a vital role in protecting your product or course content. We discuss Ashley's real-life example — a content creator who faced legal challenges because she hadn't copyrighted her course material.

In this episode, you’ll hear…

• The difference between contracts and copyright
• What to do if someone steals your content (before AND after)
• How to decide what content you need to register
