Head of content Dan Martin looks back at the week on Enterprise Nation.

As I reported last week we are on a mission to improve the digital capabilities of Britain's small businesses and we continued that effort this week.

Ahead of what is set to be a brilliant event in London on 16 February, Nick Leech shared some fantastic advice on how you can turn visitors to your website into paying customers with effective copy.

Nick also featured on Enterprise Nation TV with tips on how to integrate social media activity on your website, while O2 Business' Philip Powell explained why you should be running your business in the cloud.

We concluded our week of digital support with the launch of an amazing competition by our friends at Verisign. They're offering £7,500 of consultancy services to spend on building a new website or improving an existing one! Find out more here.

Another one of our big focuses for the year is exporting and we've launched a new survey to find out your plans for international trade in 2016. There's also an Amazon Fire tablet up for grabs.

Don't forget there's still time to secure a place on our small business trade mission to Dublin on 10-11 March. If you need convincing, here are nine reasons why you should export to Ireland.

Branding legend Rita Clifton made an appearance on Enterprise Nation TV this week with some valuable advice on how you can ensure customer loyalty, and broadcaster Clive Bull explained how you can get your business on the radio.

Preparations are in place for our first event in 2016 at our Somerset House HQ in London on Tuesday (9 February). Our founder Emma Jones will be sharing five steps to growing your business this year with every attendee receiving a copy of her book, Going for Growth. Book your ticket here.
