Nearly 1 million users have used his systems to send more than 160 million tangible greeting cards and 12 million gifts to over 100 countries throughout the world.

Kody has trained hundreds of thousands of people in his relationship marketing and personal development courses, and is the author and trainer of the bestselling seminar series, Relationship Marketing Summit. He has interviewed hundreds of successful business people on his Relationship Marketing Weekly shows. He has taught over 250 live courses around the world and numerous online courses that have reached over a million people.

He has a passion for celebrating the diversity of humanity and a core mission to bring the human race together. For many years, Kody has taught that there is an art to creating bonds, trust and assurance. When you take the time to build relationships, he says, the typical aspects of marketing become simplified and genuine. Relationships create an emotional one-on-one connection and a memorable experience. And that is where the real-life riches are made, internally and externally.

Kody shares his personal development philosophy in his first book Promptings: Your Inner Guide to Making a Difference, where he uses stories to illustrate the significance of acting on your promptings to reach out in kindness. Promptings guide you to your genius within, he explains, helping you make the difference only you can make in the world.

Kody is a visionary leader who is living his dream and travels the country teaching others to do the same. He lives in Riverton, Utah, with his wife Jodi. They have three children and six grandchildren.
