doorknocking
Going door-to-door
Doorknocking is the practice of going door to door, typically to canvass for political campaigns, conduct surveys, or solicit donations.
The term emphasizes the repetitive, ground-level nature of the work: The campaign relied on doorknocking in swing districts.
In Australian real estate, doorknocking means approaching homeowners directly to ask if they're interested in selling.
