Niche B2B growth? Here’s what no one tells you.

You’re targeting a hyper-specific B2B audience with your product? Great!

Here’s what we’ve seen from 100+ niche companies trying to grow in Europe.

1. Specialization = Smaller audience 📉

The more specific your ICP, the fewer companies you can sell to. That’s not a bug—it’s a must thing to do to increase your conversions!

✅ Invest time only to those cases who REALLY need your product
✅ Be specific with your offering -> your messaging hits harder
❌ “Every company needs this product” = biggest conversion killer

Hunting is always easier, the better you can pinpoint who you are selling to.

2. Inbounds won’t fill your pipeline 🚫

  • Emailed your 200 dream prospects? That list’s done.
  • Most B2B tactics are built for scale—not niche. GDPR makes it even harder.
  • Real growth needs consistent sales activities + marketing.
  • But founders find consistency difficult—too many daily fires to put out, sales is prio 2.

3. Hiring a full-time salesperson? Good luck.

Opening a new country, you often need a local person. Hiring a full-time B2B sales rep is:

💸 Expensive – €15,000 just to hire (when you count recruiter fees, job ads, interview time, decision-making, and getting someone through the door on day one)
⏳ Slow – Time to hire 6.2 months on average
❌ Risky – 25% salespeople quit before the first 6 months
🪦 Short-lived – average tenure of a salesperson is 2 years. Then you hire a new one.
