MYRTLE BEACH -- Many people were looking to improve their businesses at an art and technical conference Saturday in Myrtle Beach.

Experts taught the importances of blogging, and using social media to improve business strategies.
Classes for art and photography were also offered.
"We're encouraging creative people to think of themselves as entrepreneurs in a business of one,” said event organizer, David Slusher. Your art is a startup business and if you can get the word out and get people, you could maybe make a living at this, if people can find out about your art."
