About this Event
From writing marketing emails to answering customer questions and organizing your notes, today’s AI tools can give small businesses a real edge—without hiring more staff or learning to code.
This introductory workshop is the first in a monthly AI for Business series hosted at Roseville Venture Lab and supported by the City of Roseville. We’ll cut through the hype and show you what AI can do for your business right now.
In this 45-minute session (plus 15 minutes of Q&A), you’ll learn:
- What AI actually is – in plain language, with no math or jargon
- Where AI fits in a small business – marketing, admin, customer communication, and more
- Which tools are worth your time – including commonly used products like ChatGPT, NotebookLM, Claude, and Gemini
- How to get started safely – what’s OK to put into AI tools, and what to keep private
- Your first steps – simple prompts and use cases you can try the very next day
We’ll include a short live demo and a quick exercise to help you identify one repetitive task in your business that AI can help with.
