The advisory layer for beverage brands — packaging, freight, IT, insurance, benefits. We find the leaks, the vendors pay the bill, and the operator pays $0.
You just make the introduction. We do the rest — and it pays you a recurring book, evergreen.
Beverage is a tight, relationship-driven world — brokers, distributors, and buyers all run in the same circles, and one good intro travels fast. Get in early and the category builds around you: everyone who joins later refers the next, and you're already at the center. Early isn't a nice-to-have — it's the whole moat.
Three parties, three wins, one mechanism. UnifyWell is the cleanest version of the model we have.
Roughly $682 per employee / year in payroll taxes — net of the plan cost — plus a possible 30–40% cut to workers' comp. Net cost to them: $0. And every engagement after it runs the same way — savings-share, no retainer, no upfront cost. The work funds itself out of what we recover.
Employees take home more each month and get free virtual care, free generics, and 60–75% off labs, imaging, dental and vision. In a high-turnover industry, that's a retention tool.
A recurring commission on every enrolled employee, every month, for as long as the account runs. One mid-size operator becomes a check that never resets — and the first of many chains.
You're not a salesperson. You make one warm introduction to an operator who trusts you — Ad Astra runs everything after. Stay as involved as you want, or hand it off. The residual is the same either way.
The work is real — and none of it is yours to do.
You don't need to know beverage, IT, or benefits. You need one thing — operators who trust you. We handle the rest.
Sales reps, consultants, accountants, attorneys, former operators — anyone with relationships inside beverage businesses and a name worth trusting.
No technical knowledge. No selling. No managing the engagement. You open the door — we walk through it together.
You own your clients — always, full stop. We carry the same values you did when you made the introduction.
A real, compliant Section 125 / MEC plan — engineered so the tax savings pay for the care. Here's what every enrolled worker gets:
Primary care, urgent care 24/7, and counseling 24/7 — no copay.
Plus international sourcing for brand-name and a GLP-1 weight-loss program.
Office visits, labs, imaging, procedures, dental and vision at cash-pay rates.
Live coaching and group sessions — confidential and HIPAA-compliant.
Minimum Essential Coverage for every enrolled employee, free yearly physical, free preventive care.
Supplements an existing plan or stands alone. Onboard with just payroll data — no open-enrollment window needed.
A complement, never a rip-and-replace. UnifyWell layers on top of — or stands in for — existing benefits, and like everything we bring, it's built to support the operator's team and give them time and money back, not replace them.
This is the calculator you run live, on their headcount, on the first call. Drag their numbers and watch the savings land. The punchline never changes: it costs them nothing.
Simple and locked: $20 on every enrolled employee, every month — for as long as the account runs. No tiers to decode. Sign the operator, and the residual is yours, compounding across your whole book.
One simple rate on every enrolled worker — no tiers, no splits to decode.
UnifyWell gets you in the door. The same operator buys a dozen other things — and you're already the call they make. Every silo behind the wedge is backed by a signed, vetted bench: we bring the providers, you never source a thing.
We lead with people because UnifyWell is the easiest yes. But beverage brands bleed in a few specific, expensive places — listen for these, and you've found the next door.
"Freight costs more than the liquid in the can." Heavy, low-margin product — a freight audit and re-routed lanes drop straight to the bottom line.
"Cans, bottles, labels, co-pack — it's our single biggest spend." The line beverage brands overpay on most. Re-sourced, it's real recovery.
"Card fees on DTC and wholesale are quietly bleeding us." Every transaction. The right rails shave points off every order, for good.
"Product-liability and recall coverage keep climbing." Food & beverage risk is its own market. A re-bind saves money and de-risks the brand.
"Comp on the production crew is brutal." Manufacturing class codes run high. Re-classification and re-bind ride straight off the UnifyWell conversation.
Benefits get you in. But one operator buys a dozen things you can fix. Toggle the services, set their spend, and watch two numbers grow together: what they save and what you earn — every year, evergreen. We target ~15% savings; you earn 20% of our margin on each line.
The money's real — but it isn't the whole reason. AI is squeezing the people who do the actual work, and platforms hoard the margins. We're building the opposite: a network where the people with the relationships own the upside, and one honest introduction pays for years.
No hidden fees, no fine print — the commission's on the contract. Turns out honesty is a competitive advantage.
When the network wins, everyone in it wins — we're not extracting from you. Tired of 3% commissions? Same.
AI is the tool, not the replacement — leverage for good people, not a way to need fewer of them. Built, not bought.
Ad astra — to the stars.
They don't care how you started. Only that you showed up.
"Can I introduce you to the people who got us real benefits and lower payroll taxes — at zero net cost?"
Nobody says no to that question.
Make the warm introduction — then hand them to us. Ad Astra runs the numbers, the proposal, and the close. You don't sell a thing; you just opened the door.
Stay as involved as you want. Sit in or step back — either way the residual is yours. "They handle a dozen things — want me to connect you on workers' comp too?"
Ad Astra runs on Band of Hands — a curated B2B marketplace that operates as the engine beneath the surface, letting us serve more beverage brands, power our sales, and keep every commission above board and transparent.
