Why Social Media?

• Did you know - 99% or retailers will have facebook pages and 91% will have twitter profiles by 2011

• Social Media is changing the way that we do business on the web.

• Businesses that use Social Media to communicate with their clients provide a level of interaction that previously didn't exist.
