Millum | En Anden Virkelighed Med Vores Indkøbssystem

Millum takes procurement pain points and cranks them up to a surreal, almost sci-fi level. This ad transports buyers into a chaotic alternate reality where outdated purchasing systems feel as confusing as navigating a parallel dimension. The message? Stop living in a broken world—Millum brings order to the madness.

The Formula (That Works at Any Budget):

Everyday Frustration → Absurd Reality – The ad turns the struggles of outdated procurement systems into a bizarre, exaggerated world, making inefficiency feel like an out-of-body experience.
→ Lesson: Taking real frustrations and pushing them to the extreme makes your product’s benefits feel even more essential.

Contrast = Clarity – The chaotic “other reality” highlights the stress and inefficiency of old-school procurement, making Millum’s solution feel like a return to sanity.
→ Lesson: When your product fixes a problem, show life with and without it. The bigger the contrast, the stronger the impact.

Immersion = Lasting Impression – The ad drops viewers into this strange world immediately, making them feel the confusion before revealing the way out.
→ Lesson: Engage your audience by pulling them into the problem rather than just explaining it.

Humor Breakdown:

The humor here comes from absurdity—every interaction in the “other reality” is just off enough to be frustrating, yet familiar enough to be painfully real. It’s a mix of exaggerated confusion and subtle satire, showing how ridiculous bad procurement systems truly are.

Final Verdict:

Millum transforms procurement chaos into a surreal nightmare, only to wake viewers up with the perfect fix. The exaggerated world makes the contrast—and the need for a better system—impossible to ignore.

Understanding the B.R.A.V.E. Scoring System

The B.R.A.V.E. scoring system uses AI to deliver an unbiased evaluation of top-of-the-funnel B2B brand ads. It measures potential impact, memorability, and effectiveness by assessing five key components of a video ad or commercial. This system gauges an ad's capacity to drive brand recall and enhance salience, ensuring that creative work not only captures attention but also leaves a lasting impression.

What B.R.A.V.E. Stands For:

Each letter represents a key factor in determining an ad’s success:

  • BBoldness: Is the ad original, creative, or daring? Does it break away from generic B2B marketing, or is it just another forgettable corporate video?
  • RRelevance: Does it connect with a real buyer pain point? Is it addressing a specific frustration or need, or just listing product features?
  • AAttention: Does it grab and hold attention in the first few seconds? Is it visually or tonally engaging, or easy to skip?
  • VVibe: Does it create an emotional response—laughter, recognition, or surprise? Or does it feel like just another corporate info dump?
  • EEffectiveness: Will buyers remember the brand when they need a solution? Does the ad make an impact that lasts beyond the moment?

How It’s Applied to B2B Video Rating

Each video is scored 1 to 10 in all five categories, based on how well it meets the criteria. The total score (out of 50) is then divided by 5 to give a final B.R.A.V.E. score out of 10.

For example:

  • An ad scoring B-8 | R-9 | A-7 | V-6 | E-8 has a total of 38/50.
  • The final B.R.A.V.E. score is 7.6/10.

Why It Matters

B2B ads often struggle with being bland, forgettable, or ineffective. The B.R.A.V.E. system ensures they are judged by their ability to break through, connect with buyers, and drive action.

Simply put: If your ad isn’t B.R.A.V.E., it’s invisible.
