The pledge.

Six lines, the same on every advisor’s page — five kept this morning, one failed since yesterday afternoon.

Six lines · identical on 214 advisors’ pages · five kept today

You cannot edit it. You can only fail it.

The pledge is six sentences, the same six on every advisor’s page since 2019, and each one is a promise with a number behind it that is counted from your desk rather than typed by you. Five are kept this morning. The fourth — that a report is signed before the day closes — failed at twenty to five yesterday afternoon, and it has said so on your public page ever since. The only way to clear it is to sign the report.

“Every hour I keep is written up before the day closes, and you and the owner read the same words at the same minute.”

Section 02

The six lines.

Each line, the figure behind it, and whether you are keeping it today
1
“I answer your letter the same day, and if I do not know the answer I say so rather than wait until I do.”

Checked againstYour letters

Counted as the median time from a letter arriving to your answer, over the last ninety days, with nothing excluded.

Kept

1 h 10Two letters this year took over a day. Both are named on your page and neither was left unanswered.
2
“I keep the hour I promised you, for the whole of it, and I am there before you are.”

Checked againstYour hours

Every hour booked against hours attended, and the minute you arrived against the minute it was due to start.

Kept

19 of 19Nineteen hours this year, nineteen attended, median arrival eleven minutes early.
3
“No home goes on the floor before its survey is commissioned, and the survey is published whatever it says.”

Checked againstYour papers

Live sheets with a commissioned survey against live sheets in total — and every survey readable by any buyer.

At risk

8 of 941 rue du Bac has been on the floor three weeks with no survey ordered. The line holds until it is offered for an hour.
4
“Every hour I keep is written up before the day closes, and you and the owner read the same words at the same minute.”

Checked againstYour reports

Reports signed before midnight of the day of the hour, and the two reader grants issued in the same minute.

Failing · 17 hours

18 of 19Sophie Marchand’s report from Tuesday is unsigned. She arrives again at eleven this morning.
5
“A price does not move without a letter the owner has signed, and everyone holding the home is told the same day.”

Checked againstYour price moves

Price changes against signed owner letters, and the time from the change to the last buyer being told.

Kept

2 of 2Both cuts this year carried a signed letter. Fifteen buyers were told, the slowest within four hours.
6
“What I am asked, I answer or I name; what I am not asked, I tell you anyway if it would change your mind.”

Checked againstYour reports

Questions raised in an hour against questions answered in its report, plus faults disclosed before the first hour.

Kept

27 of 29The two outstanding are the ones blocking line four. Answering them signs the report.

Section 03

When you fail one.

What happens is the same for everyone · nobody is asked and nobody is warned first

3It goes on your desk as the first thing you seeTop of Today, top of the rail, above every other taskThis morning, 08:00
4At three days, no new home can be added to your deskYour nine stay, and your hours stay — you simply cannot take a tenthSaturday, if unsigned
5At seven days a person reads it, not a ruleThe desk head, with you, and the reason is written down and shown to the buyerNever reached, 2019—2026

Camille was told yesterday at 16:41.”Printed in place of the line, in the same size as the line, with the date and the hour it refers to. Not a badge, not a footnote, and not removable.

Section 05

Why it is worth anything.

Four reasons · the same on every advisor’s page
1Every line has a number behind it.

No line says “we care” or “we are discreet”. Each one names a thing that either happened or did not, and the figure that decides it is counted from your desk.

6 lines · 6 counted figures
2The same six for everyone.

Two hundred and fourteen advisors, one pledge, unchanged since 2019. Nobody has a shorter version, a softer threshold or a line of their own.

214 pages · 0 variants
3A failure is published, not punished.

No fine, no score, no league table. The line turns red, the person it concerns is told, and it stays red until the work that was owed is done.

4 failures · 0 penalties
4The old failures stay readable.

March’s thirty-one hours is still on your page, cleared and dated. A pledge that forgets is a slogan; one that remembers is worth reading.

4 kept on the record · 0 deleted
One line, one morningFive of six are kept. The sixth needs one report signed, and the buyer it belongs to is at the door at eleven — so the fastest way to keep the pledge today is also the only decent thing to do before she arrives.Sign it
