Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a concept of the future—it’s the driving force behind today’s smart software. To stay ahead, embracing AI is not optional but essential for your small business. Microsoft recently launched Microsoft Sales Copilot, a cutting-edge tool designed to redefine the landscape of sales and customer relationship management.
Introducing Microsoft Sales Copilot
Released in July 2023, Microsoft Sales Copilot is a revolutionary extension to Microsoft’s already powerful suite. The tool combines AI with machine learning technologies to elevate sales operations and customer experiences. Built atop Dynamics 365 Customer Insights, Sales Copilot is engineered to deliver actionable recommendations by seamlessly integrating AI-driven features.
If your business uses SalesForce or Dynamics 365 as a CRM, you can use the Sales CoPilot functionality to its full effect.
