TUCSON - Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube are all very popular social networking sites that you might use to find an old high school friend, or share a cool video, but what about using it for your business?

Social Media Strategist, Bardi Toto, is taking businesses to another level, using social media sites.

Toto said, "If you're not using social media, you're putting your business behind the eight ball."

Steve Pepper, a financial planner with Round 2 It Financial says Bardi showed him the advantages, and they're working.

Pepper said. "I'm starting to get the calls, I've only been doing this about 4 and a half weeks."

She's also helped Dr. Barry Kusman at the Eye Institute of Southern Arizona who clearly see the benefits.

Kusman said, "Everything is right there and can be accessed right away and it's much less expensive."

It's offering patients new information, new technologies, and inviting them into the office, instantaneously.

Toto said, "Forget the billboards, I'm sorry."

Kusman said, "I think it is the wave of the future."
