What We Do

Three services. One connected operation.

We don't sell a list of unrelated tasks. We build and run the admin operation your business needs to capture every enquiry and follow through every time.

⚙️
Business Admin Setup
We set up your quoting and invoicing processes and your enquiry capture and follow-up system — with ready-to-use templates and a handover training session so your team can run it.
🔧 Once-Off · R2,500
📥
Managed Follow-Up Desk
We handle one agreed workflow — your enquiries and follow-ups — drafting responses from approved templates and preparing quotes, within a Monday–Friday service window, with a weekly report every Monday.
🔄 From R3,500/mo · after setup
📋
CIPC Annual Return
We track your filing deadline, confirm your company details, complete the beneficial ownership step, and file your annual return with CIPC — helping you avoid penalties and deregistration.
➕ On Request
📊
Weekly Admin Report
Every Monday you receive a clear view of outstanding enquiries, follow-ups due, quotes sent, and any overdue actions. You see the business — not just the inbox.
📅 Included in Follow-Up Desk
💬
Enquiry Capture & Follow-Up
Every enquiry that arrives via WhatsApp, email, or phone is captured, tracked, and followed up. No lead falls through the cracks because the owner was busy.
📅 Setup & Follow-Up Desk
🛡️
Compliance & Documentation
POPIA/PAIA documentation starter pack and privacy-practice guidance. A specialist add-on when your business needs it — not a guarantee of full legal compliance.

📋 CIPC Annual Return Filing
We track your deadline and file your annual return with CIPC so you avoid penalties and deregistration. R350 + the CIPC fee at cost (from R100).
🛡️ POPIA / PAIA Documentation
A documentation starter pack for businesses that need their privacy and access paperwork in order. Priced on request — a starting point, not full legal compliance.
Just mention either on your free triage call and we'll include it in your quote.

Every week without a system is a week of missed enquiries, late follow-ups, and evenings lost to admin.

Small businesses don't fail because the owner isn't good at their work. They stall because the owner is also the receptionist, the admin clerk, and the follow-up person — all at once. AdminDesk SA fixes that without a full-time hire.

Why AdminDesk SA

Not a VA agency. Not a software platform.

We sell an operating system for your business — supported by human capacity. More structured than a general VA, more hands-on than an automation consultancy.

💰
Defined Scope, Transparent Pricing
Every retainer specifies capacity, response times, and what is excluded. You always know exactly what you're getting before you pay anything.
📈
Outcome-Focused, Not Task-Focused
We don't sell hours. We sell results: enquiries captured, follow-ups completed, a weekly report you can actually act on. You measure what improved.
🛠️
Ordinary Tools, No Technical Staff Needed
We work with WhatsApp Business, Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, spreadsheets, a lightweight CRM, and online forms. Nothing that requires an IT department to maintain.
🇿🇦
Built for South African Owner-Led Businesses
We understand how SA small businesses actually run — leads through WhatsApp, quotes via email, invoices on a spreadsheet. We meet you where you are and make it work better.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know.

What kind of businesses do you work with?
We work best with owner-led South African service businesses with 1–10 employees and recurring customer enquiries — contractors, cleaning companies, training providers, salons, small agencies, clinics, and similar. The ideal client has leads arriving through WhatsApp, email, or phone, and currently depends on the owner to remember what to do next.
What does the free 15-minute triage actually involve?
We ask you about your current enquiry process, where follow-ups fall through, how you track quotes and invoices, and what admin work you currently do yourself after hours. From that, we identify your biggest admin bottleneck and recommend whether a once-off Business Admin Setup, an ongoing Managed Follow-Up Desk, or a CIPC filing makes the most sense for you.
What tools do you use? Do we need to buy new software?
We work with tools your business likely already has or can access cheaply — WhatsApp Business, Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, spreadsheets, a lightweight CRM (such as a free or low-cost option), and online forms. We do not impose expensive platforms. If you already use a system, we work within it.
What does the Managed Follow-Up Desk include?
It's from R3,500 per month for up to 10 hours of work on one agreed workflow — handling your enquiries and follow-ups, drafting responses using approved templates, and preparing quotes. The service window is Monday to Friday, 08:00–17:00. You receive a weekly admin report every Monday. We don't make pricing or contractual decisions without your approval, there's no 24-hour monitoring, unused hours don't roll over, and any extra work is quoted separately. It starts after an initial Business Admin Setup so the workflow is in place first.
Do you handle payroll, bookkeeping, or legal advice?
No. AdminDesk SA does not currently offer payroll, tax filing, legal advice, regulated financial advice, full bookkeeping, or 24-hour customer service. Those areas require qualified professionals and different controls. We focus on admin operations, business systems, and compliance documentation — and we do that well.
What is the Compliance and Documentation service?
We prepare a POPIA/PAIA documentation starter pack — including a PAIA Manual, Privacy Policy, Information Officer Registration Guide, Data Breach Response Plan, and Employee Data Processing Agreement. This is a documentation starting point, not a guarantee of full legal compliance. We always recommend having the documents reviewed by a qualified South African attorney before relying on them for legal compliance purposes.
