Gross-to-Net Planning Framework

Maximizing Commercial Revenue

The SDG Gross-to-Net Planning Framework

Our solution will boost your Gross-to-Net Planning, by handling all your commercial deductions automatically. You get a clear, real-time view of how every dollar moves from gross to net, plus the ability to model different scenarios before you commit. No more surprises at month-end, no more wondering if that big promotion was actually worth it.

The result? You can finally make promotional decisions based on facts, not hunches, and ensure every marketing dollar works harder for your business.

Why Gross-to-Net Planning is a Business Imperative

Every discount, rebate, and promotion touches your bottom line, but most companies are flying blind when it comes to tracking their real impact. You know the frustration - revenue numbers that don't add up, promotions that seemed profitable but weren't, and too much time spent reconciling what should be automatic.
