You are doing nothing wrong.
The problems lie in your expectations of this small scope, that does not have the optical quality and contrast of even a cheap 60mm refractor.
Also perhaps your observing, you may not have been observing long, and learnt how to wait for those steady moments of seeing that will show delicate detail. The best this scope will ever see under ideal conditions are perhaps the two brightest bands, but I would not think the red spot ever.
