Getting Matched with Painting Bids

To start getting matched with the right opportunities, you’ll want to be sure to set up your keywords and NIGP categories right after registering as a vendor. By adding keywords you’d like to include or exclude from your search, you’ll be able to find more accurate results. Go to the keywords section in your bidding profile and type in “painting”, “road striping”, “interior painting” and anything else that describes what you do and save them to your account to find matching bids in seconds.

The next thing you’ll want to do is add your NIGP category codes, which are product and service codes that define what you sell. This will also help you see all the bids that are relevant to your business so you can focus on what really matters. Head into your bidding profile and click “My Organization” and scroll to the “Working Categories” section to look through a list of NIGP codes that you can add to your account. Here are some examples of NIGP codes that you may want to add:

Keyword: Paint
