Kami Dempsey (Your Potential Sponsor & Teammate!)
Grand Rapids, Michigan
Many women in the world are struggling to balance the time they spend on their careers with their family lives. For Kami Dempsey, a career as an ItWorks! Marketing distributor became the perfect counterweight to help her balance her career and family life when she quit her job as an eighth grade math teacher in 2006.
"I loved teaching," says Kami, who is now a Double Diamond Executive with ItWorks! Marketing. "I feel like that's a gift of mine that I will probably go back to sometime in the future,
but I want to put time in with my kids right now." The lifestyle that her It Works! business has provided has allowed her to do just that - and so much more.
"My husband and I are able to make some decisions for our children's futures that we would not have been able to without ItWorks!," Kami says, and notes that her family has risen to a new level of prosperity, as they now have a better living situation, are involved in more activities together, and can afford better schools for their children than they could have prior to their ItWorks! business. "We have the financial capability and time to do things together now... We have had aspirations to do short-term missions, and we can afford to do that now."
Indeed, it is so much more than the growing paychecks that has Kami excited about her ItWorks! business. She not only has been able to realize some of her family's aspirations, but has found meaningful purpose in helping others do the same.
"God has given us an opportunity here that we need to take advantage of," Kami says. "We're helping people get healthier, and we're helping them get set up financially... We get excited about how we can really bless others with this opportunity in those areas."
Kami's convictions stem, in part, from witnessing the effects that the ItWorks! products have had on her husband's health. "He had a cholesterol level over 300 at age 29," she recalls, "and it lowered about 150 points just using Dr. Don's Dailies." While some companies depend on short-lived excitement to bring people into multi-level marketing opportunities, Kami believes that ItWorks! is set apart by its firm foundation in quality products. She says, "I understand that the only way we're going to help other people be able to seize the opportunity is through the product experience."
Exemplifying a supportive, team-oriented attitude, Kami has made generosity and teamwork contagious elements of her organization's culture. In doing so, her ItWorks! business has become both a financial opportunity as well as a source of personal fulfillment and friendship for herself and her team members.
"I'm excited about the growth, the number of people reaching leadership status right now. It's no fun being at the top without having people there with you...
I think you can only do as well as your team does. If my team doesn't thrive, I don't thrive. So we build our business that way... We understand that as you work with others, the law of reciprocity applies: you are going to get what you give. There are so many people in this company who are generous, and that is why they are so richly blessed. It is that giving of yourself to others that makes the difference."
Kami lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan with her husband, Nathan, their two sons, Landon and Colton, and their yellow lab, Trooper. She enjoys staying home with the kids, scrapbooking, basketball, golf, and shopping.

Life is about decisions and the decision to try the Ultimate Applicator was a difficult one for me! I didn't believe it would or could work for me. I had NO hope that anything would reduce my size from an 18/20. Nothing else I did seemed to change that fact! Boy, was I wrong! After five days I finally gave in and gave it a try. I'm so happy I made that decision!
In just a few short months I went from the 18/20 to a size 10!
It's now one year later and in that year:
I have dropped five sizes. My favorite compliment to date was when someone said I didn't look like the average person who has lost so much weight - my skin is toned and tight and I do look younger than I did even 5 years ago!
We went from consistently not knowing how the bills were going to get paid to having money left at the end of the month.
Before It Works! I really had no meaningful relationships with others. Now I have lots of people to hang out and laugh with. We're all looking and feeling younger and excited about the potential this company offers us!
I've been able to share this with my brother and sister and make them part of something that is going to be BIG! You can't do that in corporate America!
When I saw the product and the opportunity I really had no hope for the future. Now I have so much to look forward to.
Recently someone said that we should make the rest of our lives the best of our lives. It Works! enables anyone who is willing to put forth effort to do just that.
I'm doing it by making sure that my passion meter for what I do stays set on high. I love what I do and I do what I love. When you look better and feel better because you are a product of the product, it is a snap to share with others.
The company gives us great products, great support, great training and a great pay plan! It Works! works for me and it can for you, too!
