When designing a new web site, the traditional approach has been to come up with an overall site design first and then scale it down to a mobile size, either by using a "responsive" design that arranges content based on the browser size, or by creating a sub-site, hopefully driven by a separate template so you can re-use major content pieces.

Lets face it, it's hard to describe what you want but it's easy to tell when something is wrong. Seeing what doesn't work can refine your vision of what you DO want. That in a nutshell, is the philosophy behind Iterative software development. The goal is to create a plan to address your goals and get a working model in everyone's hands as quickly as possible. It doesn't have to be complicated - start with a back of the napkin design, maybe rough-out the User Interface with a tool like mockflow. And most important of all don't forget to describe what you want to end up with; copies of reports, orders or pieces of information that you are gathering are critical when planning HOW to gather, store and utilize that data.
