𝟏. 𝐋𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 “𝐖𝐡𝐲”:
This is perhaps the most powerful reason authors fail. To succeed as an author, you need a compelling reason. Don’t publish just because others are doing it. Have a purpose—whether it’s to make money, share your story, or express yourself. Whatever your reason, make sure it’s strong enough to sustain you through the journey.

𝟐. 𝐍𝐨 𝐂𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤:
Failing to plan is planning to fail. Many authors dive into writing without a proper roadmap, which ultimately hinders their success. To thrive, you must create a solid plan for your book project. Good planning leads to good results. This is why at TEBEBA, we’ve got great resources to help our authors plan well.

𝟑. 𝐔𝐧𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤:
This is a common issue among authors, particularly in Nigeria. Many want to publish, but few are willing to invest adequately in their book’s production and promotion. If you aim to make significant profits from your book, you must be ready to invest in it—whether that’s in editing, design, or marketing.

𝟒. 𝐍𝐨 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲:
A lot of authors focus solely on getting their book published without considering how they will market it. Even if you work with the best publisher, you need a solid marketing plan. Without it, your book won’t reach its intended audience. That’s why, at TEBEBA, we provide great marketing support, while we encourage you never to stop marketing your book.

𝟓. 𝐆𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐔𝐩 𝐓𝐨𝐨 𝐒𝐨𝐨𝐧:
This is one of the most common reasons authors fail. Many hit a roadblock and give up too quickly. Imagine if J.K. Rowling had stopped after her early rejections. Success comes to those who persist, despite the challenges.
