My accountant called me and said, “I’ve just signed up to Claude… where do I start?” I went looking for a proper beginner guide to send her and honestly—everyone’s off trying to get rich with Claude Code, and hardly anyone is teaching the basics. So this video is the Claude 101 I wish existed when I started. I take you from literally typing in claude.ai (yes, that matters) to setting up Claude properly so you’re not wasting time, getting weaker results, or accidentally training models on sensitive business info. We start with the stuff that actually makes or breaks your experience: why I recommend Pro (especially for business use), how to turn off “Help improve Claude” in privacy settings, and how to understand usage limits so you don’t bomb out halfway through a task. Then I show you my setup for getting Claude useful fast: loading memory with your work context (I even explain how I recorded my full background and pasted it in), and teaching Claude to write in your voice using custom Styles. From there, we put the features together: Deep Research (the most slept-on feature), connectors like Notion/Google Drive, and turning research + internal data into real outputs—branded one-pagers, docs, and even interactive dashboards you can publish and share as a live link.
