Your first buyers are most likely already following you. They like your posts, they comment "ang ganda," and some of them have quietly wondered how much a piece costs. What usually stops them is not the price. It is not knowing how to buy, or not wanting to send money to someone they have only met online.
Your Obramaestra link solves both. It takes a follower straight to a page with the price, the details, and a Buy now button. They can pay by card, GCash, Maya, or a bank app through QR Ph, and the payment is held in escrow until the artwork arrives (how it works). This guide shows every place to put that link.
Your two links
| Link | Looks like | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Profile link | obramaestra.art/artist/yourusername | Places that stay up: bios, page buttons, email signatures, business cards |
| Artwork link | obramaestra.art/artwork/low-tide-at-guimbal | Posts about one piece: a new painting, a close-up, a story of it on the wall |
Your profile link shows all your available work, your bio, and your story, and it never goes out of date, because new listings appear on it automatically. On the Artist and Pro Artist plans you can also set a custom artist URL that is shorter and easier to remember. Your artwork link takes a follower straight to one piece: one post, one piece, one link.
You can copy either link with the Share button on your profile or on any artwork page, or copy your profile link from your profile link page. A simple rule: profile link for places, artwork link for posts.
Where to put it
Start with the first four rows. They take about fifteen minutes in total and keep working for months.
| Where | Exactly where | Which link | Why it works |
|---|---|---|---|
| Facebook Page | The website field in your Page's About or Intro section, and the Page's action button | Profile | For many Filipino buyers, your Page is the first place they check for where to buy |
| Facebook profile | The links section of your Intro | Profile | Friends, classmates, and relatives are often your first collectors |
| Your bio (how to add a link) | Profile | Every post can end with "link in bio" | |
| Pinned post | The top of your Facebook Page or Instagram grid, with your best available piece | Profile | New visitors see it first |
| New artwork posts | The caption, or the first comment if you post on Facebook | Artwork | One post, one piece, one clear way to buy it |
| Instagram Stories | A link sticker on any story about the piece | Artwork | Followers tap straight through |
| Messenger and Page inbox | A saved reply in Meta Business Suite | Profile or artwork | Answers "available pa?" in one tap, even late at night |
| TikTok | The website field in your bio, if your account has one, plus a pinned process video | Profile | Process videos travel far, and the bio is where viewers go next |
| Viber and WhatsApp | Your status or about line, and a reply you can paste | Profile | Some collectors prefer Viber to Facebook |
| Link-in-bio page | The first button, if you use Linktree or similar | Profile | The first button gets most of the taps |
| Facebook art groups | Buy-and-sell or artist groups that allow selling links | Artwork | Check each group's rules first; some only allow links in comments |
| Email signature | One line under your name | Profile | Every email to a gallery, client, or school becomes a quiet showcase |
If you only do one thing today, update your Facebook Page and your Instagram bio.
Answering "magkano?" and "available pa?"
Every comment or message asking about price is a buyer raising their hand. Answer within the day, warmly, and always with the link. The link shows the size, the details, the room preview, and the buyer protection, so you don't have to explain each one. Save these as quick replies and adjust them to sound like you.
When someone asks the price in the comments.
Thank you. It's ₱18,000, and it's still available. You can see the full details and buy it safely here: [artwork link]. Payment is held by Obramaestra until it reaches you.
The same reply in Taglish.
Salamat po. ₱18,000 po siya, available pa. Nandito po ang details at puwede n'yo na ring bilhin dito: [artwork link]. Safe po ang bayad, hawak muna ng Obramaestra hanggang dumating sa inyo ang painting.
When someone asks if you have other work.
Yes, all my available pieces are here: [profile link]. Happy to send more photos of anything you like.
When a piece has already sold.
This one has found a home, but I take commissions. Message me and we can talk about a piece in the same style, or see what's available now: [profile link].
Reply in the comments where others can see it, because other followers read the reply too. And never ask a buyer to pay you by bank transfer or GCash outside the platform. Checkout through Obramaestra is what protects both of you if something goes wrong in delivery. Our returns policy covers what happens then.
Ask followers to follow you on Obramaestra too
When a collector follows you on Obramaestra, they are notified each time you list new work. A follower there is someone who sees your next piece the day it goes up, without depending on a social media feed. Mention it now and then: "Follow me on Obramaestra to see new pieces first."
Offline
Your link works in person too, long after the event is over.
- At exhibits and art fairs, print a small QR code of your profile link beside your pieces or on the label card. A visitor who is not ready today can buy next week.
- Put your profile link on your business cards, ideally your custom artist URL, since it is shorter to read.
- Slip a thank-you card with your profile link into every package you ship. A happy collector is the most likely person to buy your next piece, or send a friend.
- Add a small label to the back of the canvas with your name and profile link, so anyone who admires it on a wall years from now can find you.
Make the link look good when it is shared
When you paste an Obramaestra link into Facebook, Messenger, or Viber, it turns into a preview card, and you control what it shows.
Profile link. The preview shows your profile photo and your short bio. A clear face photo and a bio that names your medium and subject make the card worth tapping.
Artwork link. The preview shows the artwork's first photo and the opening line of its description. A clean, straight-on first photo and a strong first sentence do the work here.
If a preview looks wrong, fix the photo or text on Obramaestra, not the post. Our guides on writing your artist profile and listing your artwork cover both.
A simple weekly routine
Sharing works best as a steady habit, not one big announcement.
- Early in the week, post one available piece with its artwork link.
- Midweek, share a story or short video of that piece in progress or on a wall, with a link sticker.
- At the end of the week, post something behind the scenes, like your studio, your materials, or a sketch, ending with "link in bio."
- Every day, reply to every "magkano" and "available pa" with the link.
Three posts a week that each point somewhere a follower can buy will do more than ten posts that end with "PM for price."
