As a former independent distributor for It Works, I was going to categorize this review as more negative than neutral. The only reason I chose a "neutral" rating is because as a consumer, I DO believe in the product.
Being a distributor though, is a different story.
I was signed up under fall pretenses, as my upline told me that being a distributor was like "basically getting paid to take selfies. You get paid to post on Facebook!". Those were her words verbatim, and I'm here to tell you that was false information. This company is just like any other MLM: strictly commission-based sales.
Before I signed up, I asked my upline if there were any fees involved, or if I would be contracted to the company for any specific amount of time: again I was misinformed about obligations.
This is how the It Works compensation plan works:
*Purchase a builder kit: $99. Reasonable price.
*Host your own personal website w/ e-Suite: $20/mo. Ok, not terrible.
That's higher than some other MLMs I was looking into.
*Purchase $80 worth of your own product/mo in order to be considered "commission-qualified". WHOA, RED FLAG!
You read that right: you will not receive ANY commission off of ANY sales, unless you purchase at least $80 of product a month! So between that and the website fee, you're essentially paying the company $100 (not including tax & shipping!) every month to work for them! Why should I have to pay you in order to get a small percentage off the products I'm selling for you?! OUTRAGEOUS!
Not to mention, the product prices are unbelievably high! I had so many potential customers lined up, yet they bailed once they saw how much everything was. Their Loyal Customer program does offer a huge 40% off discount, yet people STILL couldn't afford anything!
My suggestion to the company would be to first off, LOWER YOUR CUSTOMER PRICES AND DISTRIBUTOR FEES!
I honestly don't know how this company remains in business.
This product is not worth spending money. From people who sell this product on facebook or in person make it sound like this product is intended for weight loss. It is not!!!!Trust me on this one you are better off with some other product than this. The people who sell this crap don't even know what they are talking about. They Spam people non stop with trying to sell. It is annoying. and when you ask the distributors questions like I experienced with a couple of girls I bought product from they didn't know anything on how to be properly healthy or some important information. I feel like the company main goal should be to have healthy distributors and promote health. in fact one of the party I went to for these products the girl said you can eat anything you want all you have to do is take the stuff and you'll be alright... really. what a lie!!!! Let me tell you I am not overweight, I weigh 130 lbs. All I wanted was to tone my skin up a bit. this product didn't even work and I used the products how they were intended. and not to mention this stuff made me supper constipated... WASTE OF MONEY, TIME, and EFFORT....
I LOVE It Works! products! Everything I have tried has worked and I'm happy knowing that everything's all natural. I had to call customer service with an order question and the customer service rep was so friendly and helpful and got everything straightened out in no time!
My step son's girlfriend just got suckered into becoming a distributor. After watching for myself how she is being told to lie about supposed results (she has never used any ItWorks products), and copy/pasting made up stories on Facebook (stories she got from her distributor) I am appalled. The level of dishonesty is disgusting. If you have distributors lying through their faces on Facebook, then what else are they lying about. I have never tried the products and will never try them. There is no miracle cure to lose weight and inches. I want nothing to do with obvious crooks.
ItWorks is the epitome of a well-oiled machine! Their products are of the highest quality and have impacted lives all around the world, the business model is the best I've ever experienced, and the corporate team is second to none! This company works hard to please its customers and employees alike and I am honored to be part of such an incredible team!
This is a company with great products, products that I think everyone in the world needs to know about, I only wish most people were able to replace prescription meds with these supplements. I am thankful to have found many of the products that have changed my life. I share this with everyone I can.
I tried these products and they work! Customer Service is amazing and there is only a $50 cancellation fee if you fail to commit to the 3 months as stated before you signed! I am thankful for this company, it's the only thing that actually works!
It Works! Global is a business that stands behind what they say 100%. They operate more like a family than a business helping people and giving back to the community.
I've never tried this product but just wanted to let the compliance dept know that even though you may be justified in your disagreements the fact that youre blasting dirty details on the public site is unprofessional. As the company you should hold yourself to a higher standard and get the discussion off of the public site first. As someone who has a job just like yours seeing all this is in very poor taste. Address the matter sure but at least appear to be the mature adult instead of the offended teen.
Nothing I have tried has worked. I tried hair, skin and nails for three months and there was no difference on Muslim, nails or my hair unlike all the ads they show with such a growth in their hair in just a month. Such s scam. I have also tried the wraps which do feel good but only work temporarily ( for a few hours). I have also tried the thermofit x 2 months and the lip and eye cream. NONE OF THSES PRODUCTS DID WHAT WAS ADVERTISED. don't waste your money on this company. They make money by conning people into buying and then into selling these products. I originally signed up as a loyal customer to buy from a friend. I thought about selling the product bc they make it sound so great but realized to sell them you have to aggravate the crao out of your social media friends. I get so tired of my friends that are selling .this stuff because they bombard my newsfeed about this company that doesn't work. Please don't waste your money on any of these products.
Zero customer service. Product claims are false. No customer support. When I signed on I was not told about the 3 month "agreement" that if I violated I would be charged $50.00.
When calling I've gotten put on hold for 45 minutes, (had to resolve payment issue) or a recording stating they were too busy to answer the phone & to call back another time?!
AS YOU ALL KNOW KIM B. WAS ON** MY "FRIEND".
She is an ITWORKS representative and
She will rob you of your money!!!
I was once a "friend" of Kim B.'s. She helped me plan my wedding (a whole other story) and completely let me down.
As her friend she confided in me that she needed help making a bonus for a certain month with her ITWORKS productS. I helped her (at the time not really being able to afford it) but being me, I decided to buy a product that in reality, I didn't even need. I bought products from her such as the greens, facial wraps and hair pills. I never once questioned her on how much these products cost and how long I would be paying for them. I EVEN HAVE THEM BEING SENT TO MY MOTHER IN LAWS ADDRESS AS WELL AS MY BEST FRIENDS ADDRESS because she needed to make her bonuses and she couldn't use the same address. I HAVE 3 A**OUNTS OF IT WORKS PRODU**S BEING DISTRIBUTED TO DIFFERENT PLA**S AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE [redacted] IS GOING ON!!
**On top of all of this, she has been sending my invoices with all of mine and [redacted]'s credit card information, address and phone number to a [redacted] in Nebraska FOR MONTHS!!
This woman has been so concerned she has called me month after month informing me that she has all of my information and this woman continues to keep on sending her my receipts. I have this woman's phone number and keep in contact with her when this happens. I notified Kim the first time and she promised she would double check the email address next time and Kim continued to do this 2 more times.
She has totally robbed me of my money and identity AND DOES NOT EVEN **RE!!
So. Nicely, I sent her a text message letting her know I no longer want to receive these products I signed up for, as her friend and I don't even use them. I get this email in response:
"Hi [redacted]
I am happy to assist you in cancelling your IT WORKS orders.
You (the credit card holder) will need to contact the IT WORKS **stomer Service Department to **ncel your orders.
The Phone number for **stomer Service is: (XXX) XXX-XXXX
You have 3 Accounts as you placed 3 different orders:
1. [redacted] - XXXXXXX - your original greens order
2. [redacted] - XXXXXXX - your facials
3. [redacted] - XXXXXXX - the greens that you placed last week
In regards to [redacted]talano and her email address that was changed 2 weeks ago.
FYI: As I look into the computer on my end, the Greens order that you ordered last week has already shipped to [redacted]'s address per our conversation upon placing the order at lunch last week.
Thank you for your business, I do appreciate it.
Kim B."
I HAVE TO **N**L THIS [redacted]!?? I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE [redacted] I AM EVEN SIGNED UP FOR!!!!!
[redacted] and I have been trying to contact ITWORKS to cancel our products. After numerous attempts of being on hold for literally hours, I am at my wits end. I have boxes of unopened mechandise in my kitchen and have no clue how to go about this process. My mail lady has started blocking the orders from coming to our home. These products cost me anywhere from 35.00-70.00 a month and APPARENTLY NUMEROUS TIMES A MONTH!!!
I sent her this email earlier today:
"Kim,
I have tried calling the customer service line to cancel these products 5 times. 3 of those times I was holding for a representative for over an hour. 2 of those times I was hung up on because of the call volume.
I am asking for your help to cancel these products for me. I have them being sent everywhere. I have no idea how long I am getting these products for. I was doing this as a favor to help you out at the time as a friend and I didn't question it. I do not use these products and I feel as though I am being robbed. I feel this way because we were friends and you never fully explained this process to me of how many products I would receive and for how long. I am now denying the products from the post office. This is getting frustrating. I can't even go on the website to change my orders because I don't have a log in because as I said before, did this for you as a friend and left it all up to you!! I need another option. I do not want to be paying for this stuff anymore.
Thank you,
[redacted]"
and all I get are crickets.....
DONE WITH BAD PEOPLE!! KARMA WILL GET YOU!!!!
Excellent company and excellent customer service. Well done It Works.
Amazing customer service! Such great help!
This company is amazing! The products have changed my families lives!
Love it works HQ! Customer service is always top notch & helpful! Plus the products are amazing!

Amazing company to be a part of! The products are great and the company is great!
Total rip-off. I should have realized it was just a pyramid scheme. Should be shut down.
The products have changed my life. I've never looked or felt better and I love their high quality standards
