I used to think productivity was about stacking tools.

So I did what everyone secretly does:

→ Signed up for every new AI app
→ Ran 10+ subscriptions at the same time
→ Automated things that didn’t even need automating

It felt busy.
It wasn’t smart.

Then most companies did what companies do:
“Here’s Copilot.
We paid for it.
Be more productive.”

No training.
No examples.
No guidance on what works and what absolutely doesn’t.

So everyone defaults back to ChatGPT or whatever usual suspect they already knew
and Copilot becomes this expensive icon in the taskbar.

That’s the gap I solve.

At some point, I stopped chasing every new app and focused fully on Copilot inside Microsoft 365.
It’s secure.
It works where the real work actually happens.
And it saves time without extra complexity.

This mattered to me because I’m a dad, a husband, someone running a business, and someone who trains almost every day.
If a tool isn’t making my week easier, I won’t use it.

Copilot did.
So I went deeper.
And eventually, it became the core of my work.

Today, I help knowledge workers win back 4+ hours every week by:

• showing what actually saves time
• exposing what doesn’t
• building practical Copilot habits that fit their real job, not theory

What I’ve learned:

→ Most people have the right tools but use them the wrong way
→ ChatGPT is not Copilot, and using them the same way wastes hours
→ Productivity improves when systems are simple, not overwhelming

These days, I train teams, build Copilot systems, and share practical tips that people can use the same day.

And when I’m not doing that?

I’m with my family, swimming in the ocean, or training, the parts of life that remind me why time actually matters.

If you want Copilot to finally start paying off instead of collecting dust…

Isabella Ganas

Isabella Ganas

Isabella Ganas is a media strategy and business development specialist with experience in advertising, consumer packaged goods marketing, and technology-focused solution consulting. Raised in New Jersey, she was introduced early to an entrepreneurial mindset through her family’s retail and installation business. That environment provided early lessons in customer relationships, operational discipline, and long-term planning that later became foundational to her professional path.

She grew up in a multicultural environment that encouraged adaptability and cross-cultural awareness. As a first-generation college graduate, she developed a strong commitment to education and continuous professional development. These early influences shaped a practical, relationship-focused approach that continues to guide her work in complex, evolving business environments.

Isabella also benefited from early exposure to structured operations, which reinforced the importance of accountability, consistency, and trust. Those principles remain central to her professional conduct, especially in collaborative settings that require clear communication and dependable execution. She approaches challenges with patience, curiosity, and a steady focus on long-term improvement.

Isabella Ganas established a strong academic foundation centered on communication and strategic thinking. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Communication from the University of Alabama, majoring in Public Relations with a minor in Communication Studies, and graduated with a 3.89 GPA. Her education emphasized strategic messaging, media awareness, and collaborative project development.

Her university coursework strengthened skills in analytical reasoning, presentation development, and structured writing. These areas of focus supported effective communication across varied audiences and prepared her for agency- and client-facing responsibilities that require clarity and organization.

Isabella also studied in Rome for a short period, an experience that broadened cultural awareness and reinforced adaptability. Exposure to different communication styles and perspectives fostered a global outlook that continues to inform professional interactions and thoughtful decision-making.

Isabella Ganas began gaining hands-on industry experience during her junior year through an internship at AdMarketplace. This opportunity provided practical exposure to digital advertising platforms, media strategy fundamentals, and agency workflows, allowing academic knowledge to be applied in real-world campaign environments.

After graduation, she continued working full-time in roles supporting campaign execution, performance analysis, and cross-functional coordination. These responsibilities strengthened an interest in data-informed marketing and deepened understanding of how scalable advertising programs operate within fast-paced organizations.

Isabella later advanced her career through roles at Carat USA and Wavemaker US, supporting multiple Procter & Gamble accounts and progressing into leadership in commerce strategy. Beginning in September 2024, she served as Manager of Commerce Strategy, overseeing multi-million-dollar investments, supporting more than a dozen Church & Dwight brands, and translating advanced analytics into actionable guidance. Outside of her professional responsibilities, she maintains interests in cooking, baking, and interior design, reflecting a balanced commitment to creativity, continuous learning, and strong relationship-building.
