Copilot for Beginners

Create a Sales Pitch Presentation

Angelo Paolillo

In this 2-hour project-based course, you will learn the basics of building persuasive sales presentations using PowerPoint and Copilot AI. We will do this by creating a methodology-based sales pitch presentation for a fictional project management software company. You'll learn how to leverage Copilot to quickly craft a compelling narrative, import product and prospect information, match product features to client needs, and even model pricing scenarios formulating an economic offer. This project is particularly beneficial for business developers and sales representatives, allowing to create sales pitch presentations better and faster. The only required prerequisites are a valid Copilot and Microsoft 365 license, and a fundamental knowledge of Powerpoint (create and edit slides).

Reviews summary

Copilot for sales pitch creation

According to students, this course is a highly practical and efficient guide for creating sales pitch presentations using Copilot AI. Many highlight its project-based approach as effective for hands-on learning, making it particularly beneficial for business developers and sales representatives. Learners appreciate how it teaches to leverage Copilot to quickly craft compelling narratives and model pricing, enabling them to produce presentations better and faster. However, a significant point of concern for some is the strict prerequisite of a valid Copilot and Microsoft 365 license, which can be a barrier. While excellent for beginners in Copilot for sales, it may not delve into advanced AI functionalities.
