How Microsoft Copilot can be used in a company

 

Write a business offer

 

If, for example, you have a meeting with a potential client and it is going to be held in Microsoft Teams, you can take notes within the same application about the important information that is discussed. At the end of the meeting, Copilot is simply asked to write an offer proposal based on the recording of the call and the notes that were taken by hand and then the draft that Copilot offers as a result can be edited according to needs.

 

Create a PowerPoint presentation

 

Having the bid proposal created with the help of Copilot, the next step could be to ask the tool to create a PowerPoint presentation based on the previous Word document with all the data already confirmed. You are asked for the type of images to include and the tone of the presentation, in this case, it would be a sales one.

 

Contact by email

 

In Outlook, Copilot can act as a personal assistant: ask you to summarize unread emails, mark important ones, draft responses to emails, and plan meetings based on emails requesting a call. Also, take contacts from an email and organize a virtual meeting.

 

Virtual assistant

 

In the Teams app, Microsoft Copilot can be integrated to function as a virtual assistant. The user can concentrate on meetings with potential clients, while Copilot takes notes of what was discussed, records the call, and can then summarize the most important things. While the meeting is going on, you can create a pros and cons table, for example, in addition to asking him to summarize what was discussed if we are late for the call.

 

Adopting an AI tool in your business, like Microsoft Copilot, can be the help you need to make a difference, improve productivity, and ultimately be able to match the competition and put yourself above the rest.
