I've just filed the UK trademark for the Bigger Moves podcast. In this episode I explain why I used UK IPO standard terms under Class 41 (entertainment/education), what happens during the examiner review and two-month opposition period, and why I'll use a US attorney for the American filing as a non-US applicant. I also touch on costs and a past enforcement win to show why doing this early matters.   Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/KJkHXM9PDe4    Mentions: 1) UK IPO - https://www.gov.uk/how-to-register-a-trade-mark 2) Trama TM - https://tramatm.com/   Start your business in Dubai with my agency, Handlr Zone: https://handlrzone.com/pod    Follow: https://www.instagram.com/aaronhenray   00:00 Introduction and Trademark Registration 00:40 UK Trademark Application Process 01:13 US Trademark Application Process 01:31 Podcast Preparation and Future Plans 02:12 Why Trademarking is Important 03:14 Trademark Filing Costs and Options 04:50 Personal Experience with Trademark Challenges   #MakeBiggerMoves #BiggerMoves #aaronhenray #trademark #UKIPO #podcast #branding #intellectualproperty #smallbusinessuk #entrepreneurship #creators #youtubepodcast #brandprotection #business #success © 2025 Handlr Media Ltd.

I'm stepping back from day-to-day in one of my companies so I can focus on two things that actually move the needle: growing the channel and buying a UK business. In this short update I explain why trying to juggle too many projects doesn't work without a big team, how I'm simplifying and what to expect next (more consistent content, clearer direction). I also touch on selling older ventures, including my Dubai setup, to double down on what matters.   Watch on YouTube:https://youtu.be/s6lc6IZ-C58   00:00 Introduction and Update on Current Focus 00:00 My Decision to Refocus: Here's the Plan 00:36 Importance of Personal Interaction 01:03 Balancing Focus and Delegation 02:15 Future Plans and New Camera 02:42 Business Ventures and Sales 03:46 Conclusion and Sign Off   © 2025 Handlr Media Ltd.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/9csnav_1y90  In this video, Aaron Henriques debunks the myth that entrepreneurs need an agent to set up a business bank account in Dubai. He explains that the process is relatively straightforward, especially with banks like WIO, where accounts can be opened quickly via an app. Aaron highlights the unnecessary fear and complexity that some agents instill in people, stressing that for most businesses and entrepreneurs with proper documentation (Emirates ID and residency visa), opening a bank account in Dubai is simple.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Y-TCH886vsQ In this video, Aaron Henriques clears up common confusion between Visa Entitlements and Visa Applications for free zone business setups in Dubai. Many people, particularly those going through an agency, misunderstand these terms and end up feeling misled. Aaron explains how Visa Entitlements are linked to company trade licenses, allowing a certain number of sponsored visas, and the costs associated with them. He differentiates this from Visa Applications, which are individual requests for residency visas. The video also covers potential hidden costs and the importance of realistic planning, including why you can't use company visas for family members unless they work for the company. Essential viewing for anyone setting up a free zone or mainland company in the UAE.   Mentions: Dubai Residency Visa Process Video - https://youtu.be/unr6sIhTmBQ  Start your business in Dubai with my agency, Handlr Zone: https://handlrzone.com/yt  OR get a direct referral to my contact at the IFZA free zone: https://aaronhenriques.com/ksbc    Follow: https://www.instagram.com/aaronhenray   00:00 Introduction: Visa Entitlements vs. Visa Applications 01:56 Understanding Visa Entitlements 04:43 Diving into Visa Applications 07:38 Common Mistakes and Misunderstandings 12:22 Conclusion and Final Tips   #UAEBusiness #VisaEntitlement #EntrepreneurTips #BusinessSetupDubai #InvestorGuide #UKEntrepreneurs #DubaiVisa #opportunity #motivation #success #businessstrategy #UAEVisa #EntrepreneurGuide #BusinessSetup #InvestorVisa #DubaiBusiness #VisaEntitlement #ResidencyVisa #UKEntrepreneurs #USABusiness #EuropeInvestors #CanadaEntrepreneurs #AustraliaBusiness Disclaimer at https://aaronhenriques.com/disclaimer
