About us
🌟 About Admin Happy
Admin Happy is here to take the “ugh” out of admin and bookkeeping, giving business owners the freedom to focus on what they love. Founded by Annie Pearson, Admin Happy exists to liberate you from the chaos of paperwork, admin and bookkeeping. Not to mention 'compliance' and bring more ease, clarity and fun into your business.
We specialise in keeping your books Always up to Date—a powerful system built on our SOAL principles:
Streamline. Optimise. Automate. Liberate.
It’s not just about compliance—it’s about clarity, confidence and peace of mind. Knowing your numbers and systems are in order opens the door to better decisions, more time, and that sweet feeling of momentum.
Why We Exist
We know that while bookkeeping and admin are essential, they can be overwhelming, often neglected, or flat-out avoided. That’s where we come in. We make it easy—teaming up with you to set up clever systems and habits that keep things running smoothly in the background, so you can get on with the good stuff.
We believe business should be a vehicle for creativity, contribution and freedom—and when the admin’s sorted, that becomes possible.
🚀 What We Do
We help small business owners stay Always up to Date with their bookkeeping and admin. That means:
- Your Xero file is up to date weekly (or even daily if needed)
- You can rely on clean data, accurate reporting, and smooth compliance
- We do the heavy lifting—you just give us what we need, when we need it
Important caveat: This system only works with commitment. We make it easy for you to send through what we need each week—but if that doesn’t happen, the system breaks down and we all lose.
It’s not for everyone. But for those ready to work smarter—not harder—it’s a game-changer.
