• Insufficient Preparation – Considered one of the commonest mistakes, lack of preparation is one of the easily avoided but among the most problematic issues. Prior to keeping anything on 'sale' and approaching your customer, it is must to gather some relevant information; as an example, if you are in used-car business, you must be ready with information such as - kilometers it has measured, model number, availability of repairing centers around the area as well as stores which deal into its spare parts. If you are ready with all such information, your customer would be easily impressed and it would be easier for you to crack the deal. Same goes on every small business organization.

• Overconfidence – It is good to be confident but overconfidence always makes it go wrong. While approaching customers, an entrepreneur should always be confident enough to sell his/her business successfully but when you start crossing the limit of this confidence, things starts going wrong and it may end up losing clients.

• Misrepresentation - This is another blunder which may cause your business to go down. It is said that for a complete development of small business, one must be proper while presenting his/her business. However, few people(entrepreneur) gets tempted to offer an exaggerated version of their offerings to client and distort projections, but this will do no good with your business apart from sending red flags. You must keep it clear in fronts of your customers, though, you can play smartly to win good deals.
