Objectifs :

This document aims to provide a comprehensive guide on how to effectively use Copilot chat to draft a professional email for discussing pricing options with a supplier, ensuring clarity and adherence to budget constraints.


Chapitres :

  1. Introduction
    In this guide, we will explore the process of utilizing Copilot chat to draft a contextual email for reaching out to a potential supplier. The focus will be on how to communicate effectively regarding pricing options while adhering to budget constraints.
  2. Selecting Tech Items
    Previously, I used Copilot chat to analyze a PDF supply catalog, selecting specific tech items for my team. The items included: - Headsets - Mice - Mouse pads These selections were made to enhance our team's productivity and comfort.
  3. Reaching Out to the Supplier
    After selecting the items, the next step is to reach out to the potential supplier to discuss pricing options. This is crucial as the selections have slightly pushed the budget over the limit.
  4. Drafting the Email
    To draft the email in Outlook, I start by copying relevant parts of my Copilot chat discussion from my chat history. This information serves as the basis for my email prompt. The steps to compose the email are as follows: 1. Open Outlook and create a new email. 2. Fill out the recipient and subject fields. 3. Access Copilot directly within the email body or from the toolbar. 4. Request a professional tone that details expectations for favorable pricing options.
  5. Specifying Budget and Expectations
    In the email, I specify my budget and ask the recipient for a prompt response. Before sending, I paste in the list of items of interest that I copied earlier from my Copilot chat. The generated email is concise, detailed, and tailored to my needs.
  6. Adding Payment Terms
    I realized I forgot to mention payment terms, so I ask Copilot to add a paragraph about my preference for a bank transfer with net 30-day terms. The paragraph is seamlessly integrated into the email.
  7. Including Contextual Information
    To provide context, I mention at the beginning of the email that I am Eloy, Assistant to Julie, who tasked me with sourcing this equipment. Copilot quickly incorporates this detail, enhancing the professionalism of the email.
  8. Final Review and Adjustments
    The result is an email that meets my expectations. I decide to keep Copilot's version, make a few adjustments, and prepare to send it out. It is essential to review any AI-generated content thoroughly, as I am ultimately responsible for the content I produce.
  9. Conclusion
    In conclusion, using Copilot chat has allowed me to achieve both the tone and detail needed for this task efficiently. The process demonstrates the effectiveness of AI tools in enhancing communication and productivity in professional settings.

00:00:21
Poiché le selezioni mi hanno spinto leggermente al di sopra del budget
00:00:25
per redigere un'email contestuale in Outlook.
00:00:28
Comincio copiando parti rilevanti del mio
