Thinking about product ideas or inspiration 💡?? ... I was amazed by the approach Airbnb is taking to enhance experiences... it's fantastic, and it shows the value of 5 things that are quite important when working on new or existing products: ✅ Focus on Unique Value Propositions: Emphasize extraordinary and unique experiences to stand out. Continually innovate and highlight your unique selling points. ✅ Emphasize Experience Over Features: Design features that enhance the overall user experience, making your offering engaging and memorable. ✅ Leverage "Celebrity" and High-Profile Partnerships: Create buzz and attract attention by associating your product with well-known figures. Strategic partnerships and endorsements can significantly boost your brand appeal. ✅ Create a Sense of Exclusivity and Magic: Offer unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunities that customers crave. Limited-time offers, or exclusive access can create a magical and exclusive feel. ✅ Integrate Real and Digital Worlds: Seamlessly bridge the gap between digital and real-world experiences. Ensure a cohesive journey from online planning to offline execution. Quite interesting, right?? I would love to book the Polly Pocket house or the Xmen Mansion... 😂 Send me your comments... 👇 #ProductDesign #ProductManagement #Innovation #CustomerExperience #AirbnbIcons #UniqueExperiences #BrandStrategy

Airbnb revealed its intent to eventually relaunch its Experiences sector Tuesday during its second quarter earnings call. Industry experts’ opinions vary as to whether Airbnb can pull off a successful relaunch of its Experiences vertical. Read now on #PhocusWire: https://bit.ly/3WFXXUl #travelnews #travelindustrynews #travelindustry #airbnb #airbnbexperiences #travelexperiences

Airbnb's plan to relaunch Experiences in 2025 is making waves 🌊 - interested to see if it delivers. With Brian Chesky emphasizing affordability, uniqueness, and better marketing, the pressure is on. Industry experts are divided and some believe Airbnb’s brand power can make this a hit, while others worry about deeper issues like supplier support and scalability. At the end of the day, small business owners/experience hosts have to diversify their distribution strategy. This could be a game-changer for travel—or another missed opportunity. What do you think? Can Airbnb get it right this time? 🧐 https://lnkd.in/eBjdzGa5

The modern Airbnb website has almost nothing in common with its initial version. However, their first version is a classic example of a Minimum Viable Product - and offers two critical lessons on product development... 1. Validation is Just the Beginning  The journey of an MVP isn't about instant success. Airbnb's story shows that an MVP serves as a litmus test to verify if there's a genuine demand for a product.  However, recognizing that demand exists is the first step. The real challenge becomes pursuing growth opportunities and scaling the solution. 2. MVP: A Tool for Multi-dimensional Validation  An MVP can validate not just a product's necessity, but its functionality and market fit. Start by confirming a problem people actually face and are willing to pay for solutions. Airbnb did just this by first asking: Do people want an alternative to hotels? Are they willing to stay in a stranger's home?   Their initial website wasn't feature-rich. It lacked options, reviews, online payments, and direct booking. Yet, it confirmed a market interest. With that insight, they refined their MVP to validate solutions, progressively adding features to enhance user experience and solve the problem more effectively. Airbnb's evolution from a simple idea to a global platform exemplifies how MVPs can guide from validating an initial concept to fine-tuning a comprehensive solution. If you found this insightful, give it a thumbs up and follow me as I share my insights and learnings around the topics of business agility, leadership, and transformation management. 😎  #businessagility

Yesterday, Brian Chesky and Airbnb introduced Icons, a new category of extraordinary experiences. Here’s what we can learn from it: It leverages post-pandemic behavioral insights to build upon its product offering (we love a CX feedback loop!). People are more eager than ever to explore and gather unique experiences that can be shared on their social media. It perfectly encapsulates that desire by blending the thrill of exploration with the power of social sharing. Why settle for watching “Up” when you can quite literally explore the world Carl created with Ellie above the scenic red rocks of Abiquiu, New Mexico? Why watch the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 on TV, when you could watch it from the Musée d’Orsay’s terrace, just outside your room for the night in the clock tower? Icons offer an exclusive, out-of-this-world experience that doesn't just meet the post-pandemic demand for travel & adventure but elevates it to an entirely new level. It's an ingenious move that taps into the collective yearning for unique, shareable moments in a way that a standard ticketed experience simply cannot match. From a customer experience perspective, there's a rich vein of insights to mine here. This move by Airbnb underscores the importance of innovation in customer service—not just in delivering what customers want but in anticipating their desires and exceeding their expectations. It's about transforming customer service from a cost center into a strategic asset that drives customer loyalty and brand differentiation. The future of customer engagement lies in creating unique, memorable experiences that resonate on a personal level. Whether it's by leveraging technology and out-of-the-box thinking, or simply taking the time to understand what truly excites and engages your customers, The goal is to move beyond the conventional to offer something genuinely extraordinary. In a world where customers are bombarded with choices, the companies that manage to capture their imaginations and hearts will stand out. Bravo Airbnb, bravo. https://lnkd.in/eGYMA3Dk

#airbnb hat Pläne, das Geschäft mit Elebnissen wieder aufleben zu lassen ... Nachdem sie es in der Vorversion fast erstickt haben 🏗. In dem Artikel diskutieren Branchengrößen die Erfolgsaussichten. Z. B. Douglas Quinby von Arival : " Airbnb’s experiences business has been “sub-scale,” according to Quinby. He assessed Chesky’s commentary on Tuesday’s earnings call. “They seem committed to the Icons model and leaning [into] unique, exclusive content,” said Quinby. “That might make for great [public relations], but it won’t make for a scalable business. Most travelers who go to Paris, whether they’re staying in a Hilton or an Airbnb, they want tickets to the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre. And if Airbnb doesn’t figure out how to deliver them, there are plenty of others happy to step in.” Quinby said his company remains skeptical “and ever hopeful” that Airbnb can “figure it out” when it comes to Experiences. “If and when they do, the results could be magical. There are still so many problems to solve in our industry." #Airbnb #ToursandActivities https://lnkd.in/d5sckHME

In a surprising move, Airbnb breaks its usual update cycle to unveil a spring update, featuring a groundbreaking addition to its property labeling system. Alongside existing labels like "Superhost" and "Guest Favorites," Airbnb now introduces badges for the top 25% and top 1% properties, revolutionizing how users assess listings. But that's not all! The travel giant also addresses quality concerns by implementing badges for the bottom 10% of properties, signaling low quality. With metrics like subcategory ratings and review sentiment, Airbnb ensures transparency and reliability for users. Since April's hosting quality measurement system update, Airbnb has taken a stringent stance, removing a staggering 100,000 properties from its platform, reaffirming its commitment to excellence. Additionally, Airbnb bolsters its verification process, verifying all properties in its top five markets, with plans to expand verification tools globally. CEO Brian Chesky hints at future AI-powered features, promising an "ultimate concierge" experience. #Airbnb #Updates #QualityLabels #VerificationBadges #TravelTech
