There are many benefits for Joshua protecting its business ideas and products. As shown in the case study Joshua owns a copyright of the UK’s leading hair magazine. This is a benefit to Joshua as no other hairdressing companies can copy the style or layout of the magazine. This means that Joshua can stay the UK’s leading hairstyle magazine; therefore their brand becomes widely recognised. This could lead to a higher profit as people may only want the UK’s top magazine. However other brands may work their way around the copyright, and become a main competitor with Joshua’s magazine.
Protecting the brand name or any products of Joshua’s would be a huge benefit
