NDA by default

Confidentiality agreements are signed by default for any client who requests them — and observed rigorously in their absence.

One interlocutor

You never repeat yourself. One bilingual person owns every request from instruction to completion.

Written follow-through

Every request is acknowledged, tracked and closed in writing. Nothing is left open.

A person, not a platform.

Book & Smile was founded by Michel Zollo — a bilingual professional trained in visa administration and formerly of INSEAD's administrative staff in Fontainebleau. Years of serving international executives, diplomats and families taught one lesson: what clients value most is the certainty that when they ask, it is handled.

What does a Book & Smile personal assistant handle?

Personal, executive and lifestyle matters in France: appointments, reservations, errands, business logistics, guest management, events and the requests that fit no category — handled by one named, bilingual person.

Do you work in English?

Entirely. Native French and fluent English — you instruct in English, everything France-facing happens natively in French.

How does the engagement work?

One-off assistance for a single request, or monthly membership (Essential, Executive, Private Office). Terms are defined in a private consultation.

How is confidentiality handled?

NDA by default for any client who requests one, a single named person on your file, and no client is ever named — publicly or privately.
