Create a mind map that will help guide you for the prompt / problem. Create a mind map that explores 3+ design options for the project. Each design branch should fully explore design characteristics and specifications. I would recommend using Lucid Charts.
TIP:
Most firms that hire you, expect you to go above and beyond what they are looking for. First, it is important to give them exactly what they want, but also to share your expertise. So if you come up with an idea that might not completely follow their specifications, share it with them. They might not use it . . . this time . . . but your input as a design is invaluable.
(Optional) If you come up with a great design that might not fully meet the specifications completely, share it with them anyways. Create a 4th branch with this optional design.
