So Glad I Did It! 5 Preparations Every Note Beginner Should Make in Their First Month
Nice to meet you, I'm Nakashi🌱
Actually, I always failed high school Japanese. I was terrible at writing essays and thought, 'Writing is impossible for me...'
But now, I'm updating my note daily with AI as my partner.
Please feel free to take a look at the record of my growth if you'd like👇
Now then,
You might have worries like, 'I want to start note, but I don't know what to do' or 'Where should I even begin?' lol
Honestly, I was the same at first. I thought note was just about writing and posting articles. But once I actually started, I realized there were so many things I wished I had prepared beforehand.
In this article, I will introduce 5 preparations I'm really glad I made in my first month.
I hope this will be a helpful reference for you as you start your note journey.
By reading this article, you will gain the following benefits:
Understand the basic functions and usage of note
Clarify what needs to be done in the first month
Find hints to organize your 'core message'
Get your note ready to be read
It doesn't have to be perfect, but I've made this content so that you can take home the 'courage to take the first step.'
Let's get started!
※For those interested in monetizing note👇
STEP 1: Just creating a note account isn't enough! Let's set up an 'attractive profile'
Registering for note is easy, but the profile is actually incredibly important.
The reason is that when a reader finishes your article and thinks, 'I'm curious about this person,' the first thing they look at is your profile.
✅ Profile preparation checklist
Icon image: If possible, a photo that conveys your personality or a logo close to your brand colors
Name: It doesn't have to be your real name. However, keep 'memorability' and 'friendliness' in mind!
Self-introduction: Who you are and what you will be sharing. Even if it's rough, show your world view.
SNS links: If you have X (Twitter) or Instagram, be sure to include them.
Pinned article: First, pin your self-introduction article.
Point
Your icon and header image are the first things visitors will definitely see. Make them memorable! The one who leaves an impression wins.
STEP 2: Be sure to write a 'self-introduction article' first to give readers peace of mind.
note has both a 'profile article' and a 'self-introduction (settings)'. Before reading your writing, readers will explore, 'What kind of person is this?'
That's why, a profile article and self-introduction serve as your business card. Be sure to write them first.
✅ Elements to include in your self-introduction article
About yourself (hometown, occupation, hobbies, etc., it's okay to write casually)
Why you started note (motivation/purpose)
What kind of articles you will write from now on
What you want to ask of readers (follow or like)
Introduce your SNS or other activities
Tips for writing
Write clearly about what you want to convey and what your purpose for writing is.
STEP 3: What should you write for your 'first article' on note? If you're lost, try this!
You're all fired up to 'write an article,' but you don't know what to write...
That's a path every note user walks (lol).
For your first article, I recommend:
The reason you started Note (from a different angle than a self-introduction)
Your current worries, realizations, or things you are challenging yourself with
Something light like "I just tried writing this"
The meaning lies in "publishing" rather than the content itself
For your first article, the act of "posting" is more important than the quality.
The "Like" culture on Note is very warm, so there are people watching.
Take the plunge and try posting.
STEP 4: Reading and reacting to other Note users—acting as a reader is key
Note is a "place for broadcasting," but it is also a "community."
Therefore, reading and reacting to other people's articles is also an action that grows your own Note profile.
✅ Such actions are effective
Try "liking" and "commenting" on other beginners' Notes
Follow creators you admire and write your thoughts on their articles
Try sharing articles you like on social media
By acting as a reader, "relationships within Note" will gradually form.
This will become the foundation for your articles being read later on.
STEP 5: Creating a "Magazine" in advance helps reveal your worldview
Something that is surprisingly often overlooked is the "Magazine" feature.
On Note, there is a "Magazine" feature that allows you to group articles by theme.
This is super convenient to set up first!
Magazine examples:
"Note Beginner's Record"
"Daily Insights Log"
"Writing Practice Magazine"
Just by having magazines ready,
your Note will have a clear theme
readers will find it easier to locate past articles
you won't be confused when posting later
and there are many other benefits.
Summary: What you should do next
Thank you so much for reading this far. I've packed in all the preparations that I, Nakashi, a former Note beginner, found helpful for achieving results in my first month.
However, honestly, nothing has really started just by reading this article.
So, finally, let me suggest your "next step"👇
🎯 Here are the 3 things you should do next
-
Review your Note profile right now
Based on what you read today, try refining your catchphrase and title.
-
Write "your first" article, even if it's just a draft
Don't strive for perfection; just try writing an article for now.
-
Read and study other beginner Notes
Try using #SelfIntroduction and #FirstNote as references.
🌱 A final word from Nakashi
I truly believe that Note is a place where "those who continue, win." The day will definitely come when your writing moves someone's heart.
Take it easy and go at your own pace. But don't forget the courage to take a step forward today✨
