Copilot ROI Is Real — And Multiplied by Training
Most executives and managers with a Microsoft 365 tenant have heard about Microsoft Copilot. It's getting a lot of attention — and for good reason. But many leaders still wonder: what makes it such a game changer, and where does it actually fit into their organization?
Microsoft Copilot is an AI-powered assistant built directly into the Microsoft Office apps your employees already use — Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint. When properly licensed and rolled out, it enables employees to work faster, automate repetitive tasks, and get intelligent suggestions that dramatically boost productivity.
The purpose of this post is to share how — in the right hands — Copilot delivers unprecedented return on investment (ROI), especially for Office-centric teams. Imagine your team saving up to 30% of their time on routine document tasks and data work. That's not a futuristic pitch — that's what Copilot can do today.
For example, if an employee earning the national average of $28/hour saves just 48 hours a month using Copilot, that results in $1,344 in additional work output — per employee, per month. Multiply that by 100 employees, and you're looking at approximately $134,000 in extra productivity each month. Meanwhile, the cost of 100 Copilot licenses is about $3,000/month — a 4x ROI, or a 44X return on the licenses and that will only increase as employees become more adept at using it.
But here’s the key: this ROI doesn’t happen automatically.
Without proper training, most employees only scratch the surface of Copilot’s capabilities. They might generate summaries or create a few slide outlines, but they won’t explore the strategic and time-saving power it truly offers.
That’s where we come in.
