But, registering a trademark gives you the exclusivity to protect your products and services from unauthorized use and trademark infringements.

Trademark infringement is the unauthorized use of an identical or confusingly similar trademark by a person who is not the authorized proprietor, in relation to the goods or services of which the original trademark has been registered. It is the violation of the exclusive intellectual property rights of the authorized trademark owner. Trademark infringement leads to unfair competition as the original product loses its distinctiveness. The other party may also bring the trademark a disrepute and show it in a bad light which results in the tarnished of the image of the original product. There are a lot of reasons to get your trademark registered and validated so that the exclusive authority to use the trademark belongs only to the authorized owner of the proprietary rights of the trademark.
