SALES:

Writing SMS campaigns for promotions and sales

Write an SMS to introduce [offer] to past customers. Use urgency by saying the promotion only lasts for 3 days

LEADERSHIP:

Communicating a pivot

Act as founder of your company, write a communication to your team announcing a pivot in your company's strategy, emphasizing the reasons behind the pivot and the new direction the company will be taking. Consider addressing potential concerns and uncertainties from your team, and providing a clear vision for how the company will move forward with the pivot.

ARBITRAGE:

Task prioritization

I’m a copywriter who needs help building tomorrow’s schedule. I have to respond to five emails, two of which are urgent. I also need to write, proofread, and submit an article tomorrow by 5 p.m. At 12 p.m. I have a one-hour call with a client. I’d also like a 30-minute lunch break and some time to exercise. Using the Eisenhower Method, build me a schedule.

MARKETING:

Write an On boarding Email

Write a welcome email to my customers after they purchased [name of the product].

Congratulate them for their purchase, and invite them to keep in contact so you

can keep helping them solve [problem].

Microsoft's AI automation aims to eliminate monotonous job tasks rather than replace jobs. Businesses and developers can soon build AI-powered Copilots to perform tasks automatically, such as monitoring email, data entry, IT help desk services, and employee onboarding.

Charles Lamanna, VP at Microsoft, explained that Copilot will become proactive, handling background tasks without waiting for user queries. A preview of this capability is being tested before a public release.

Microsoft believes Copilot will reduce repetitive administrative tasks, allowing employees to focus on more meaningful work, enhancing job satisfaction instead of causing job loss.
