TRADEMARK SYMBOL

The trademark symbol is a small "TM" placed next to your business name or logo to identify it as a specialized mark that should not be copied or used without permission. Trademark is literally the "mark under which you trade", thus is a symbol of the organization is represents. If another company were to use either the same mark, or one that is very similar to it, in a way that causes confusion about which organization the mark represents, then this is infringement on your trademark, and is an illegal practice (based on the laws where your business is based and being conducted). So, adding a trademark symbol after your mark is a way of giving "fair warning" to anyone who might consider trying to cause this confusion with a customer. Keep in mind though that anyone can add a TM and call a symbol or text their trademark, but if you add a registered trademark symbol, it must be registered with the USPTO to be valid.
