Congrats on the smoker. Its a great hobby for sure. Ive been smoking butts, ribs, sausage, chicken for years now, and have my methods pretty narrowed down thanks in part to BBQ legends out there. I took notes over the years of the little things from watching shows like BBQ Pitmasters and then various You Tube channels like HowToBBQRight. Then combined those tidbits of knowledge with my experience and setup.
Main thing I would suggest if you havent already for doing butts or brisket or almost anything is to invest in a quality meat thermometer if you havent already. It's a big crutch in knowing when to pull the meat off.
Seeing and reading about all the various methods out there can be overwhelming, but ultimately its just some little heat, smoke, and meat at the core of it. No one method is right as there are many ways to to achieve great results which mainly comes from your experience.
