The Small Business Owner's AI Dictionary with Prompts

Instant digital download · PDF guide. 

A Praxis Hub™ resource for small business owners

Understand the language of AI — without hype, confusion, or technical jargon.

AI is moving fast. Clear explanations are not.

Most small business owners don’t need more tools — they need better understanding before making decisions that affect their time, money, and team.

This guide exists for that reason.

What You’ll Get

26 plain-English AI terms, written specifically for small business owners, covering:
• What each term actually means
• How it shows up in everyday business tools and platforms
• Why it matters when evaluating software, vendors, or automation
• Real cautions to help you avoid common (and expensive) mistakes

15 practical prompts, organized into five clear sections:
• Clarity & priorities
• Operations & processes
• Team & people decisions
• Strategy (small business scale)
• Time & execution

Each prompt is ready to copy and paste directly into the AI tool you already use — no setup, no formatting, no technical knowledge required.

How This Helps You

This is not about “doing more with AI.”  It’s about thinking better before acting.

This guide helps you:
• Ask better questions before buying software
• Fix problems before automating them
• Clarify roles, workload, and capacity
• Balance short-term pressure with long-term stability
• Make decisions with more confidence and less stress

Often, the biggest value comes from the mistakes you don’t make.

Who This Is For

✔ Small business owners
✔ Non-technical leaders
✔ Decision-makers who want clarity before action
✔ Anyone feeling pressure to “keep up” with AI without losing control

What This Is Not

✘ Not a technical manual
✘ Not a course
✘ Not software training
✘ Not a pitch for tools or platforms

This is a reference guide and thinking aid — designed to be used again and again.
