Using AI to Get the Business Data You Need

Funders, lenders, and partners expect you to back up your ideas with clear facts about your customers, your community, and your impact. Without data, it’s hard to make your case and secure the support you need.

This beginner-friendly workshop will show you how to use AI tools—ChatGPT and Perplexity—to collect the right information without being a research expert. You’ll learn how to:

• Find data that makes your grant proposals and business plans stronger
• Gather facts about your community, industry, and target market
• Use data to tell a powerful story funders and investors will trust
• Turn everyday questions into useful insights with AI

By the end of the session, you’ll understand how to put data to work for your business or nonprofit, so you can make better decisions and strengthen your chances of getting funded.

This workshop is free and open to the public. Registration is required to attend.
