"Bien" tells you how things happen, ie. "well" (and adverb)

"Bueno" tells you how things are, ie. "good" (an adjective)

In English this distinction does not appear to be very important sometimes, for people use "good" for everything, but in Spanish it is a strict one.

Bien es "Well" en inglés y bueno es "Good" en inglés. The MAIN thing with adjective usage in spanish is you say things in Spanish that in English would come out as "House white or dog black"
