Q

7.1. Logical or emotional needs

A

If a client’s emotional needs are met, they may get what they want but not what they really need.
Logical needs analysis involves looking at the client’s situation logically, prioritizing and fitting products or benefits to those needs. Thus a reconciliation between products and needs.
