Entrepreneurs good or bad, we all make mistakes. Some take their lumps over and over while others learn more quickly from their mistakes. Scott Walker, the founder of Walker Corporate Law Group, has worked with hundreds of entrepreneurs and has seen lots of mistakes get made along the way, so he shared five of the most common mistakes in this video below.
Here are the five common mistakes that Scott Walker identifies to watch out for:
1. Failure to do your due diligence on the guys on the other side of the table.
2. Failure to build a strong transaction team.
3. Failure to run negotiations through the lawyers.
4. Failure to check your emotions and remain disciplined.
5. Blinking first (explained in the video).
Watch the video (below) to get a little more perspective on each of these mistakes and see how you can avoid making the same mistakes too.
