I believe the answer is:

call on

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'you go from door to door' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'cheat everybody into' is the wordplay.
'cheat' becomes 'con' (conning is a kind of cheating).
'everybody' becomes 'all' (all people).
'into' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'con' placed around 'all' is 'CALL ON'.

'as' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for call on that I've seen is " Pay visit to, or appeal to".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
