Before you begin
Most businesses buy the licence first and only then think about who gets it and what the assistant should reach. With a chat tool that only sees what you type into it, that is a small mistake. With Copilot it is a large one, because on day one the assistant finds everything that lies open in your business. Five decisions belong before that. Together they take half an hour and spare you the clean-up.
Not "everyone" and not "just me, let's see". Write down two or three functions: the office manager and me. Every licence is a person who can reach everything they are allowed to see with one question — and whom you have to take out again on their last working day.
Copilot is an add-on per person, not a switch for the whole business. That is convenient: you can start with one licence, on your own account, and extend once the shares are in order. Whoever starts small can grow. Whoever starts wide has to collect again.
