Brotherhood in Business: Introducing the Patriot Business Alliance

Written/Narrated by:  Ed Bejarana | Published on: August 16, 2025

Veterans have each other’s backs on the battlefield. Now we’re bringing that same spirit to the boardroom.

The Veterans Club is proud to announce the launch of a brand-new chapter specifically for those who’ve traded their boots and badges for business cards: the Patriot Business Alliance. This chapter is designed to bring together veterans, first responders, and active-duty military personnel who own, operate, or represent a business—and who are ready to grow.

Why the Patriot Business Alliance?

Because success doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It happens through connection, shared values, and mutual support.

The Patriot Business Alliance (PBA) is a weekly gathering with a clear mission: to help veteran- and first responder-affiliated businesses grow through qualified referrals, lead generation, and professional camaraderie. No frills, no fluff—just solid people helping each other win in the marketplace.

Who Can Join?

This isn’t your average networking group.

PBA is open to:

  • Veterans and first responders who own or operate a business
  • Veterans and first responders who work for a business and are responsible for growth (sales, client development, marketing, etc.)

Whether you run your own lawn care service, manage marketing for a roofing company, or sell insurance as part of a larger team—if you’re a veteran or first responder, this space is for you.

Important: We grant industry exclusivity—only one member per business category is accepted (e.g., one realtor, one web developer, one financial advisor, etc.) to ensure maximum opportunity and collaboration.

What to Expect Each Week

PBA meetings are structured, purposeful, and power-packed with opportunity. Here’s what the typical agenda looks like:

  1. Announcements – Stay connected with upcoming events and opportunities
  2. Invocation – An optional moment of reflection or prayer
  3. Pledge of Allegiance – Because we still stand for something
  4. New Member Introductions – Learn who’s joining, including their service background
  5. Marketing Minute – Every member gets 60 seconds to pitch, ask, and share wins
  6. Keynote Speaker – One member per week presents their business in-depth
  7. Lead Activity Report – Share referrals passed, business closed, and 1-on-1 meetings

This is not a social hour—it’s a mission-driven environment where your time is respected and your business is supported.

No Dues. Just Commitment.

Unlike most networking organizations, there are no dues or fees to join PBA. But we do ask for something even more valuable—your consistency.

If you hold a seat in the group, we ask that you attend regularly. Your spot is exclusive to your industry, and missing too many meetings may open your seat to someone else. We’re building something strong, and that only works when everyone shows up for each other.

Let’s Build Together

Running a business is tough. Doing it alone is even tougher. Join a room full of people who know the meaning of service—and who are ready to serve each other in business.

If you’re ready to grow your business with people you trust, and be part of something bigger than yourself once again, this is your call to action.
