Is It Too Soon to Discipline My 1 Year Old?

My daughter will be 1 year old in a few days, and lately she has been a little hard to handle. I try to tell her no when she does something she needs to learn not to do (like chewing on our coffee table or biting or hitting us when she's frustrated) and it seems like the word "no" is a cue for her to keep doing it. My question is, aside from distracting her with something else, what kind of disciplinary actions can I take with a 1 year old? Is she too young for me to say no to and what can I do to make her understand that it's bad for her...
