Free AI Training for Veteran Entrepreneurs on November 9

Veteran and military-spouse entrepreneurs have a free AI training opportunity on Monday, November 9, at 1 p.m. Eastern. Google announced the YouTube livestream on November 5, with American Corporate Partners and Blue Star Families joining as hosts.

The program includes practical training, SodaPup founder Adam Baker, a live Q&A, and an opportunity to sign up for complimentary 30-minute individual coaching. Google’s announcement links to registration; check current event details and coaching availability before making plans.

Prepare one useful business question

For readers planning to attend, a useful preparation step is to choose one recurring task. A product description, a response to a common customer question, or a weekly planning outline gives you something specific to evaluate during the session.

Write down the inputs and the desired result. For a product description, that might mean confirmed dimensions, materials, intended use, and a maximum length. Keep a separate list of statements the draft must not invent, such as certifications or delivery guarantees.

Use a made-up customer example or information already approved for public use. Keep private customer records and confidential business documents out of a demonstration unless you have checked the tool’s data handling and your obligations.

Turn the lesson into a small test

After the session, try one technique on a draft you can inspect before anyone else sees it. Compare the result with your existing version. Is it accurate? Does it answer the customer’s question? How much editing does it need?

Record what worked and what failed. If the output adds unsupported facts or misses an important constraint, revise the instructions and test again. Keep publishing, sending, and pricing decisions under your control while you learn.

For the Q&A, prepare a narrow question about the step that still needs judgment. Asking how to verify a product claim is more actionable than asking how to automate an entire company.

Find support beyond the livestream

The SBA lists National Veterans Small Business Week for November 9–13 and points entrepreneurs to Veterans Business Outreach Centers and Boots to Business. Those resources provide a separate starting point for exploring business support beyond this AI event.
