Free live class · Tue, Nov 10 · 7 PM ET
Put Claude to work in your business.
A free class for small business owners, consultants and contractors. I'll do real work with Claude on screen, from the first prompt to the finished result, so you leave with prompts you can use the next morning.
What you'll get
Watch it work instead of hearing about it.
- A live build in Claude, start to finish, not screenshots on a slide
- The prompts and sample materials as a PDF before class, yours to keep
- Where AI saves real hours in a small business, with the math
- A straight answer to “do it myself, or hire it out?”
- Live Q&A at the end

Claude for Business 101
Tuesday, November 10, 2026 at 7:00 PM ET · Live on Zoom
How the class runs
Slides up front, one long live build, then your questions.
01
How to talk to Claude
A short set of slides: what it's good at, where it isn't, and the prompt habits that change the results.
02
The live build
One continuous session in Claude, building real business material on screen. You follow along with the prompt PDF.
03
Do it yourself, or hire it
How to tell which work to keep in-house and which to hand off, then open Q&A until the questions run out.
Who it's for
Busy people who'd rather see it than read about it.
Small business owners
You run the business and the back office. You want hours back without hiring.
Consultants and solopreneurs
You sell your time. You want proposals, follow-ups and admin done in minutes, not evenings.
Contractors and service pros
You're on site all day. You want quotes, estimates and replies handled before you're home.
Your host
Jordan Patterson
I spent 15+ years in budget and finance across federal government, government contracts and the private sector. Now I run Blueprint Consulting AI in Charlotte, NC, building websites, apps and AI tools for businesses, and shipping my own apps to the App Store.
I use Claude every day to do the work, so this class is how I actually use it, not a tour of features. Every example comes with the math: hours saved, and what those hours are worth.

Questions
Before you sign up
Is it really free?
Yes. Register with your email and you'll get the join link, the prompt PDF and the replay.
Do I need a paid Claude account?
No. A free Claude account is enough to follow along, and you're welcome to just watch and use the PDF afterward.
I can't make it live. Should I still sign up?
Yes. Everyone who registers gets the replay by email.
Is this a sales pitch?
It's a class. At the end I'll mention how Blueprint builds this for businesses that would rather hand it off, and that's it.
Do I need to be technical?
No. If you can write an email, you can do everything in this class.
