Logic Doesn’t Sell
Logic Doesn’t Sell
Short one — straight from a morning meeting.
New salespeople often believe:
if you show the client a perfectly logical case,
the deal is guaranteed.
Classic scenarios
Client wants profit.
— Invest €140,000 and in a year you’ll get €260,000.
— Sounds good. I’ll think about it.
Client wants passive income.
— Here’s the return, here’s the contract, all guaranteed.
— Great. I’ll think about it.
Same pattern.
Because logic doesn’t sell —
it kills momentum.
Why logic breaks sales
Logic isn’t about results.
It’s about the process of reasoning.
Once you push the client into that mode,
you take them out of emotion —
the very thing that drives decisions.
A thinking client is not a buying client.
He’s analyzing, not acting.
The irrational truth
Mathematically, owning a car makes no sense.
Ten years of taxis cost less than one new car.
Car sharing is even cheaper.
Yet BMW, Maserati, Aston Martin —
still sell just fine.
The takeaway
Buying is emotional.
Logic comes later — to justify the feeling.
Logic doesn’t sell.
It only explains the purchase after it happens.
