Airbnb – “AIR BED AND BREAKFAST”
Airbnb, which stands for 'Air Bed and Breakfast', is an online marketplace that connects people who want to put their properties up for rent with those looking for accommodation. Hosts, people who rent out their properties, can use the platform to advertise their rooms or houses to millions of people around the world while resting assured that Airbnb will handle the payments and offer support when necessary. As for guests, they can find a place that may have more character but at a lower price than what most hotels charge. To make a booking, guests just have to follow a few simple steps. First, users must open the Airbnb website and create an account if they haven’t done so before. New users are required to verify their phone numbers and upload some identification documents. Next, they can log in to their accounts and provide the exact dates and location of where they want to stay. They can also use various filters to customize their search to ensure the place meets their expectations. Once users have found a good match, they can continue to make a booking or a reservation. Then, they must pay for the accommodation and wait for the notification of their booking. For longer stays, a payment plan can be arranged where the guest pays an initial deposit with the remaining fees paid in installments. It is advisable that users read the reviews of places before making a decision. However, reviews are not always reliable as the reviewers tend to be a bit more generous because they are worried that they may receive negative reviews from the host in return. Overall, with a simple idea behind the whole system, Airbnb has come a long way with more than 5.6 million listings from more than 220 countries worldwide. It has completely transformed the hospitality industry.

Start-ups are usually young companies founded by one or more entrepreneurs. They develop
products or services that improve on existing ones or create completely new goods and services by breaking conventional ways of thinking and doing business. What distinguishes a start-up from other companies is that while regular companies use an existing template of how a business works, a start-up strives to create an entirely new template. Airbnb, for example, is a fast and convenient service through which those who want to rent accommodation can deal directly with property owners, without the assistance of any agency. Other factors that render start-ups different are their speed and growth. Start-ups aim at developing ideas very quickly. They constantly improve their products through feedback and usage data. They will also test and revise the product or service until it’s ready to come onto the market. While start-up companies work on their products, they also look to quickly expand their customer base. This allows them to delve into the market and establish a larger market share, which, in turn, helps them raise more money to develop their products.
