How Copilot for Microsoft 365 Saves Me Time & Boosts My Productivity

Sure, there are transformative AI projects that can revolutionise our organisations, but what about the daily tasks, the busy work? Copilot for Microsoft 365 is ‘your everyday AI companion’. But what does that mean and how can it benefit our teams?

 

Rebecca Hayes, Business Analyst Manager at Viatel Technology Group put Copilot for Microsoft 365 to the test and tells us why it has been a ‘game-changer’ in her role.

 

 

 

Streamlining Client Interactions

When we’re delivering client demos, we would normally be carrying out the demo with the client and also taking notes. As you’re sharing your screen, it’s very difficult to take the notes while on the laptop.

For Rebecca, the functionality within Copilot was a welcome improvement in the note- taking process: “One of the biggest time-savers is generating meeting notes. Often, after customer meetings, I’m handwriting notes, then transcribing them into emails – a process that could take up to an hour.

 

 

Boosting Sales and Efficiency

Copilot isn’t just about saving time; it’s about improving efficiency across departments.  “Copilot for 365 has really helped us in generating sales proposals in a quicker turnaround time,” says Rebecca. This translates to faster approvals, happier clients, and a more productive sales team.

 

Taking Back Control of My Time

 

 

Beyond Sales- Internal Benefits

The benefits extend beyond sales. “Not only does it help me with sales proposals and presentations and documentation,” says Rebecca, “but also internally within the team, I’m able to find out where documents are saved much easier.” Copilot helps her stay organised and locate information quickly.

 

The Power of Information at Your Fingertips

Imagine asking your workday assistant, “What meetings do I have today?” Copilot allows Rebecca to do just that.  “I can priortise my day-to-day plan by asking Copilot what meetings I have for the day”. It can even summarise lengthy documents or email threads, saving her even more valuable time.
