Welcome to your exclusive guide on using NOAN, the AI-native platform designed to transform how you run your business. Whether you’re a solo founder or part of a growing team, this how-to will help you unlock the full potential of your two free months on NOAN.
1. Understand the NOAN Philosophy
NOAN isn’t just another business tool—it’s your company’s AI-powered brain. It’s built around two core ideas:
- Natural Language Control: Interact with NOAN’s assistant using text or voice. No complex prompts—just talk to it like you would your best employee.
- Fact-Based Knowledge: NOAN uses “smart blocks” to store the facts about your business. This single source of truth powers everything, ensuring accuracy and alignment across your team.
2. Getting Started: Your Business Facts
- Smart Blocks: Think of these as LEGO bricks for your business knowledge—company name, audience interests, product features, and more.
- Auditability: Every fact is tracked, so you know who changed what and when.
- Team Alignment: Once a fact is set live, it’s available to everyone (human or AI) on your team.
Tip: Spend time refining your smart blocks. The more accurate your facts, the better NOAN can help you create, strategize, and execute.
3. Meet Your AI Assistant
- Task Management: Ask the assistant to add, close, or prioritize tasks. Use natural language—“Add a task to onboard a new customer”—and watch it appear in your task manager.
- Notes: Store ideas and future plans as notes. These are separate from your core business facts, so your assistant won’t confuse brainstorming with current strategy.
- Contacts: Add new contacts to your NOAN Network with a simple command. The assistant parses names, emails, companies, and memos automatically.
Pro Tip: Use the product’s language (e.g., “task,” “note,” “contact”) for the fastest results.
4. Create Content with Confidence
- Create Mode: Instantly generate job descriptions, partnership docs, emails, and articles—all based on your business facts.
- Assistant Collaboration: For more complex content (like thought leadership pieces), work interactively with the assistant. Pull in stats, reference internal docs, and set the tone (e.g., British English, investor-friendly).
- Team Permissions: Invite team members, assign roles, and control access to sensitive information.
5. NOAN Network: The AI-Native CRM
- Contact Management: Add, search, and update contacts using natural language. No more manual data entry or property matching.
- Batch Import: Move contacts from other CRMs (like HubSpot) with ease. NOAN auto-sorts and connects people to companies.
- Integration: Use Zapier to connect meeting notes, Typeform leads, and more directly into NOAN Network.
6. Stay on Top of Your Business with Activity Snapshots
- Daily Overview: See tasks, team updates, AI-powered news, and analytics (Stripe, Google Analytics, document insights) in one place.
- Real-Time Collaboration: Any meeting note or contact update is instantly available to the whole team.
7. Integrate and Automate
- Zapier Actions: Automate contact creation and memo updates from your favorite tools (e.g., meeting transcription apps, Typeform).
- Slack Integration: Use hot words to send ideas from Slack directly into NOAN Notes.
8. Best Practices for Success
- Refine Your Facts: Treat your smart blocks as a living business plan. Update them as your company evolves.
- Leverage Teamwork: The platform becomes exponentially more powerful as you add team members—all working from the same source of truth.
- Experiment with Tones: Set multiple tones for different audiences (investors, partners, customers) to ensure your content always hits the right note.
- Join the Community: Participate in the NOAN WhatsApp group for tips, best practices, and early access to new features.
9. Final Tips
- Multiple Companies: Manage several businesses from one account—just switch between them as needed.
- Feedback Loop: If you need a feature, let the NOAN team know. Many updates come directly from user feedback.
- Book a Walkthrough: Reach out for a personalized demo if you want to dive deeper.
