How do I read and change Your trade codes?

The row Your trade lists every NAICS code on your profile and where each came from, and you tick the codes that you want to keep.

Written By GovPreneurs

NAICS codes tell the government and Hunter what kind of work you do. NAICS stands for North American Industry Classification System. Your trade codes come from several places. The table shows each place.

Steps

  1. In the left menu, click My Business.
  2. Click What you sell.
  3. Find the row Your trade. Click Change.
  4. Read the table Where your codes came from.
  5. Clear the box in the column Use for each code that you do not want.
  6. To add a code, click Add a code. Search for a trade, or click Search all NAICS codes.
  7. Click Save. The button shows how many codes you keep.

How to read the table

Each row is one code with its name. Each column is a source of the code:

  • SAM: your SAM.gov registration.
  • SBA: your small business profile.
  • Capability statement: your capability statement.
  • You added: codes that you added here.

A tick means that the source lists the code. A dash means that it does not.

What you see next

Hunter uses the codes that you keep to find work. A code that you clear stays off your profile. See Which Success Center facts can affect Hunter matches, and when?. In the Hunter Filters panel, these codes carry the tag "from your profile". See Which business facts affect opportunity matches?.

Rules

  • You must keep at least one code.
  • To save with no list, add a code of your own or choose a trade.

⚠️ If this does not work: If the row does not save, read Why did my business answer fail to save?.
