Trimark Exhibits at LA’s Largest Mixer in Downtown Los Angeles
Jul 28th
This past Thursday, July 22nd, Trimark’s office hit the road to put up a booth at L.A.’s Largest Mixer, held at the Shrine Auditorium Expo Center in downtown Los Angeles.
Dubbed as one of LA’s biggest networking events for business to business relationships, more than 225 exhibitors and over 2,500 people attended the mixer.
We at Trimark made a bunch of new contacts and friends, and even took a business card collection to randomly raffle off a free portfolio website to one lucky local company!
Hosted by the LA chamber of Commerce and sponsored by local media such as ESPN Radio 710, LA Opinion and others, the “trade show” attracted tons of Los Angeles businesses representing just about every angle of commerce you could imagine.
WE got a lot of compliments on our booth and promo materials and took tons of great pics, so we thought we’d post them online for you to check out!
This won’t be the only tradeshow Trimark will be exhibiting at this year, so we’ll be sure to keep you posted in our blog as other events come closer.
We’ll also be unveiling the all-new Trimark Marketing Group website in the coming weeks, so check back with us for updates soon!

In this way, trademarks help your company to maintain a distinct identity in the marketplace.
Once you put a trademark on a product in the marketplace, it provides legal protection. However, they do not prevent other companies from producing the same products with a clearly different mark – you cannot trademark an idea but you can trademark the expression of an idea.
Although trademarks protect, they must also be protected by registering with the US Patent and Trademark Office. A Registered Trademark costs anywhere from $325 and up, and often takes a year and even up to several years to process, since there is more research involved in issuing it. Once registered, you can change the ™ to ®.
Companies must constantly monitor their trademarks so that they don’t slip into generic use; if they do, More >
