It isn't your Excel skill. It's prompt skill.

"Analyze this data" gets you back something vague, obvious or wrong.

So you close the pane and go back to doing it by hand.

Monthly reporting still eats two days.

Import, clean, pivot, chart, paste into PowerPoint. Repeat next month.

Demos never show the actual prompts.

In the actual order. On actual messy data. This book does — all 200+ of them.

Copilot is a skilled junior analyst who does exactly what you say — so your output quality is decided by your instructions. That's learnable, and it's the whole subject of this book.

One dataset in. Four professional deliverables out.

Four raw files from a fictional retailer. By the last chapter you've turned them into work you could actually send upward.

A verified multi-file data model

Imported, error-checked — you hunt down 7 planted errors — related and measured.

An interactive HTML dashboard

Self-contained, works offline, shareable with anyone. No BI licence needed.

A refresh-ready Excel report

KPIs, exception flags and AI-drafted variance commentary that update with new data.

A corporate PowerPoint deck

Built from your Excel model with PowerPoint Copilot — rebuildable in minutes.

Next month's report is coming either way. Get on the early list free — ₹499 at launch, video course included, sample chapter before you decide.

✓

You have — or are getting — a Microsoft 365 Copilot licence at work

✓

You want monthly reporting to take hours, not days — and you learn by doing

You want generic ChatGPT tricks — this is specifically Copilot in Excel and PowerPoint

–

You expect AI to remove the need to understand your own data

Before you sign up

Am I paying anything now?

No. This page only puts you on the early list. You'll get one email at launch with the ₹499 link and the video course already attached.

When does the video course arrive?

It's in production now and ships after the ebook. Early-list buyers get access as modules go live — no extra payment, ever, on that purchase.

How long does the early-bird bundle stay open?

Until the book ships. On launch day the ebook goes to its regular ₹799 and the video course becomes a separate ₹1,999 product — the bundle only exists for people who joined before then.

Do I need a Microsoft Copilot licence?

For the full experience, yes — a Microsoft 365 Copilot licence on top of M365. The prompt patterns and the HTML dashboard chapter transfer to other AI assistants, but the step-by-steps assume Copilot.

I'm not an analyst — will it be over my head?

If you can build a basic pivot table and write a SUMIF, you'll cope comfortably. Managers who review reports get the most out of Sections 1 and 3.

What format, and can I expense it?

PDF plus the dataset as .xlsx/.csv, delivered instantly at launch. GST invoice available for corporate buyers.
