Caleb Simpson didn’t build his massive social media following by trying to sell people a fantasy apartment. He built that audience by having the courage—and vision—to ask strangers to simply open the door.
In this episode of Forbes Talks Shop hosted by Spencer Dukoff, the creator behind viral home-tour interviews opens up about how one simple question (“Can I see your apartment?”) turned into a career built on curiosity, connection and trust.
He also shares why people are so fascinated by the way strangers live, what he’s learned from stepping inside homes around the world and how rejection—not to mention walking, lighting candles and a fully charged cell phone—all became part of his creative process.
