Operating Principle 03 · publish the Receipts

The Receipts

Every promise we made. Where it really stands. And the proof. Kept, missed and late all sit on one page. A company that shows you only the wins is telling you nothing.

Nothing on this page is ever deleted. Only updated.

The tracker

Every commitment, on the record.

Found one we missed?

Did we promise something that is not on this page? That gap is a broken promise too. Send it in and we add it. Even if it makes us look bad. That is usually why it was missing.

The event ledger

Every event.
Every grade.
Including the bad ones.

Each event is graded against all eleven Standard categories within 14 days and the scorecard is published in full.

The ledger wall

The numbers we have promised to publish.

What counts as a promise

Anything we said out loud that you can measure. On this site. In the Handbook. In an email. On a mic at an event. Vague hopes do not go here. Specific promises do.

What counts as evidence

A real number. A dated file. A scorecard. A receipt. "We feel good about it" is not proof. If we cannot show it, the status stays In Progress. Never Kept.

Who decides

Whoever owns the promise sets the status. Anyone can dispute it at info@brokehella.com. While we sort it out, we mark it disputed right here.

Receipts from you

You paid us. Say what happened.

This page is about our receipts. Here is a place for yours. Tell us what you paid for and whether it was worth it, good or bad, and we will consider posting it here, next to our own numbers.

Nothing here publishes itself. A person reads every one first, the same as a Field Press tip. We are not going to quietly skip the bad ones — that would make this whole page decorative — but we are also not a live comment section, since anyone could post as anyone.

Was it worth it

We cannot take a file upload on a page with no server, which is why this only takes a link. If you would rather not link anything, that is fine — the review stands on its own.

Trust compounds.

So does hiding things. We picked the first one.
