THE ENCOURAGEMENT FACTORYSerial 97394708 · Principal Register
Live · Registered
Owner: Blue Ocean Insight, LLC
Class 016 - Paper Goods & Printed Matter
Filed May 04, 2022
Registered Dec 03, 2024
The record shows that “THE ENCOURAGEMENT FACTORY” is a live, Principal Register registration owned by Blue Ocean Insight, LLC, a North Carolina limited‑liability company, and it was officially registered on Dec 3 2024. The registration covers class 016 paper goods and printed matter, specifically pencils, pens, stationery, motivational cards, journals, paper gift cards, printed notebooks, and paper art such as paper flowers. A similar name used on any of those listed items would create the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside this narrow paper‑goods scope are farther from the protected area but not automatically free of risk. The prosecution history shows the application proceeded through a non‑final office action, a statement‑of‑use filing, and ultimately a notice of allowance before registration, but it never moved to the Supplemental Register. The most recent meaningful event is the notice of registration confirmation emailed on Dec 3 2024, and no opposition, cancellation or court activity appears in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to brand paper‑based or printed motivational products with a similar name.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
