+### 1.1 Pick helm or YAML files for deployment
+
 If you'd like to use helm follow the instructions in 2.0a and then come back here, otherwise follow 2.0b to use plain `kubectl`.
 
 ### 2.0a Deploy with Helm
 
-A Helm chart is provided `faas-netes` repo.
+A Helm chart is provided `faas-netes` repository. Follow the link below then come back to this guide.
 
 * [OpenFaaS Helm chart](https://github.com/openfaas/faas-netes/blob/master/HELM.md)
 
 ### 2.0b Deploy OpenFaaS
 
+This step assumes you are running `kubectl` on a master host.
+
 * Clone the code
 
 ```
 $ git clone https://github.com/openfaas/faas-netes
 ```
 
-* Deploy the services
+Deploy a synchronous or asynchronous stack. If you're using OpenFaaS for the first time we recommend the synchronous stack. The asynchronous stack also includes NATS Streaming for queuing.
+
+* Deploy the synchronous stack
 
 ```
 $ cd faas-netes
 $ kubectl apply -f ./faas.yml,monitoring.yml,rbac.yml
 ```
 
+Or
+
+* Deploy the asynchronous stack
+
+```
+$ cd faas-netes
+$ kubectl apply -f ./faas.async.yml,nats.yml,monitoring.yml,rbac.yml
+```
+
+Asynchronous invocation works by queuing requests with NATS Streaming. An alternative implementation is available with Kafka in an [open PR](https://github.com/openfaas/faas/pull/311).
+
+* See also: [Asynchronous function guide](https://github.com/openfaas/faas/blob/master/guide/asynchronous.md)
+
 ### 3.0 Use OpenFaaS
 
-That's it. You now have OpenFaaS deployed.
+After deploying OpenFaaS you can start using one of the guides or blog posts to create Serverless functions or test [community functions](https://github.com/openfaas/faas/blob/master/community.md).
