Panalibe kulakwitsa - sofa yemweyo, tebulo khofi, mipando m'chipinda chodyera ndi zithunzi pa makoma.
Ndinkadabwa ngati izi "Becky ndi Andrew" ndi "Kelsey ndi Jean" zinalipo.
Ndinkafunanso kudziwa ngati mabanja awiriwa analipo , amene , zomwe ndidazipeza, kapena anali ndi mazenera ofanana ndi mipando yofanana, yokonzedwa mosiyana. Zipinda za Chris ndi Beca zinkawoneka zofanana kupatula pa tebulo la khofi. Alex ndi Brittany anali ndi mpando wowonjezera pabalaza.

Ndinakumana koyamba ndi Jane Patterson wochokera ku Michigan. Anandiyimbiranso foni nthawi yomweyo ndikundiuza kuti adachita chinyengo kuchokera kwa Beca ndi Andrew chaka chomwecho, ndipo sanathe kuyiwala za izi kuyambira pamenepo.
Analibe zokumana nazo zambiri ndi Airbnb pamene iye ndi mwana wake wamkazi anaganiza zopeza malo ku Marina del Rey, California, mchaka chino. Komabe, adakhulupirira kuti, monga loya woteteza milandu, atha kuzindikira kusewera koyipa.
Patterson analandiranso foni titangotsala pang'ono kuthamanga, ndipo zonse zinali zofanana ndi zomwe zinachitika ndi ine. Woyimba foniyo adati nyumbayo inali ndi vuto la kukhetsa, koma adatha kupeza malo okulirapo mpaka woimbayo atha kukonza vutoli. Zinali zovuta, koma malinga ndi zomwe anafotokoza, anaitanidwa kuti akakhale m’nyumba ina yaikulu m’malo enaake m’boma.
"Ndipo tidaganiza - gehena, akadali ku Malibu? Patterson akukumbukira. "Tidayang'ana zithunzizo ndipo tidawona kuti zingakhale zabwino kwambiri."
Koma atafika pamalopo, anazindikira kuti analakwitsa. Nthawi zambiri chitseko chakutsogolo chinali chotsegula, zomwe zinkachititsa mantha Patterson. Nyumbayo inali yauve komanso yodzaza ndi mipando yowoneka ngati yatoledwa mumsewu. Panali ma sofa , munali mipando , matebulo . Zonsezi zitha kuwoneka pazithunzi zomwe adajambula.
Patterson adati adasiya meseji pa nambala ya Becky ndi Andrew yoti sakhala komweko. Ndipo ngakhale munthu amene adayankha foniyo adanena kuti afunsidwa zamavuto omwe adawafotokozera, palibe amene adalumikizana naye. Mwangozi, m'modzi mwa abwenzi ake amakhala pafupi ndi malo awa, omwe adatha kukhala nawo, ndipo nthawi yomweyo adayamba kupempha kubweza ndalama. Iye ankakhulupirira kuti ntchito yakeyo idzamuthandiza kwambiri akabwerera.
Ndondomeko yobweza ndalama ya Airbnb idakhazikitsidwa . Sizikunena kuti alendo amafunikira chitsimikiziro cholembedwa kuti alandire ndalama, koma imanena kuti kampaniyo ili ndi "mawu omaliza pamikangano yonse."

Ngati wolandira alendo akuitana mlendo kuti azikhala m'nyumba yosiyana ndi yomwe adasungitsa, Airbnb alendo kuti apemphe kuchotsedwa ngati "sakufuna m'malo." Pazochitika zonsezi, malamulo ali kumbali ya scammer ndi malo ogona omwe amapereka kwa alendo omwe angofika kumene kumalo osadziwika ndi katundu ndipo alibe mwayi wogona kwina kulikonse.

Anthu ambiri sangafune kuchoka, popeza alandira ndalama zina ndipo sakufuna kuzimenyera nkhondo kwa nthawi yayitali. Kupatula apo, Airbnb ili ndi dongosolo lolozera momwe ochereza komanso alendo amasiya ndemanga zapagulu za wina ndi mnzake, ndipo pamaziko omwe angatsimikizire kudalirika kwawo m'tsogolomu.

Kupanda kutero, atha kuwoneka wovuta kwambiri kwa eni ake, kapenanso kulandira ndemanga yoyipa pobwezera.
Koma Patterson sanasamale. Iye ankadziwa kuti anali kunyengedwa ndipo sakanabwerera m’mbuyo mpaka atabwezeredwa khobidi lililonse. "Ndine loya ndipo ndimakonda kukangana," adatero. "Sindinasiye kuyimba."
Pamapeto pake, adalandira ndalama zomwe adabweza, koma zidabwera ndi malingaliro ankhanza kuchokera kwa Beca ndi Andrew. "Sitimuyitana kapena kumupangira gulu la airbnb!!" - iwo analemba. Patterson ankadabwa kuti anthu opanda zinthu ngati iyeyo kapena nyumba zina angachite chiyani pa nthawiyo.

Garrido anali mumzinda kuti apite kuphwando la nyimbo ndi anzake, koma omwe adamulandirawo anamuletsa kusungitsa kwake mphindi yomaliza. Koma Chris ankaoneka kuti ankafunitsitsa kumuthandiza ndipo ananena kuti ali ndi malo ogona oti atha kulandira alendo 1800. Garrido akukumbukira kuti, pokhala mumkhalidwe wovuta, adayamikira kwambiri zoperekazo, ndipo mwamsanga anasungitsa malo atsopano - mofulumira kotero kuti sanazindikire ngakhale ndalama zingati. Chifukwa cha kampani yaikulu ya Garrido, Chris ndi Becky anamulipira $XNUMX kwa mausiku atatu—pafupifupi theka la zimene anapanga pa semesita.
Garrido adaletsa kusungitsako koma sanawerenge kaye zomwe zidapangitsa kuti amulipiritsire chindapusa cha $950. Anandiimbira foni Chris nati akakhalabe naye akakana chindapusacho, ndipo anandiuza kuti Chris adavomera.

Monga nyumba zina zofananira, nyumba yomwe Lasota adasamutsira idakhala yonyowa.

Kugwiritsa ntchito maakaunti abodza sikumatanthawuza kukhala woyipa wa ogwiritsa ntchito. Anthu ambiri sasamala kuti amakhala nyumba ya ndani - amangofuna zinthu zotsika mtengo kuposa hotelo. Koma polola ochereza alendo kuti azigwira ntchito mosavuta ndi mayina abodza, Airbnb yakhazikitsa njira yomwe imalola azambanja kuchita bwino.
Nditasankha kuti ndasonkhanitsa umboni wonse womwe ndikufunikira kuti nditsimikizire Airbnb, ndinatumiza uthenga wautali ku ofesi ya atolankhani ya kampaniyo, ndikuwafunsa, mwa zina, momwe angatsimikizire kuti anthu akuimiridwa molondola muakaunti awo, ndi momwe makasitomala ayenera kuchita. ndi milandu yachinyengo.
Pasanathe tsiku limodzi, kampaniyo idandiyankha motere:
Khalidwe lachinyengo, monga kulowetsa chiganizo chimodzi m’malo mwa chinzake, limaphwanya mfundo za m’dera lathu. Tikuchotsa zotsatsa izi patsamba pomwe tikufufuza.
Ndizomwezo. Palibe woyimilira kampaniyo amene adavomerapo kuyankhula za chiwembu chomwe ndavumbulutsa. Palibe amene adayankha mafunso anga okhudza kutsimikizira kwa wolandira.

Airbnb yakhazikitsa netiweki ya , yozikidwa pa kukhulupirirana, ndipo imene iri yosavuta kuigwiritsira ntchito molakwa ngati ingafune.

Zonsezi zikugwera pa mapewa a akuluakulu a m’deralo, omwe ena a iwo ali otsekeredwa m’njira yoti sangakwanitse kumenya nkhondoyi.
Mu 2015, Airbnb idawononga osachepera kukakamiza kuchotsedwa , zomwe zinakakamiza kampaniyo kuti ilembetse kwa nthawi yayitali pamalingaliro aliwonse. Lamuloli linadutsabe, zomwe zinapangitsa kuti nyumba ziwonongeke. Koma si mizinda yonse yomwe ili ndi bajeti ya San Francisco. Pamene New Orleans kubwereketsa kwakanthawi kochepa mu Ogasiti, mzinda wopanda ndalama zambiri unangosiya zokakamiza m'manja mwa Airbnb.

Eni nyumbayo anam'patsa code yolakwika kuti atsegule chitseko cha nyumba yomwe anachita lendi ku Texas, ndipo adayenera kusungitsa chipinda pahotela yodula pamphindi yomaliza. Anati ngakhale kuti Airbnb sanabwezere mtengo wa chipinda cha hotelo, iye sanachoke papulatifomu. Amasangalala ndi “maubwino okhala ngati m’deralo kwa mausiku angapo.”
