The shopfront month traders pay for so they never have to do it on a Sunday night — learn the trade as a side income, at a distance.
Sill Studio teaches you to build, for real shops, what they already look for: a month of posts ready to schedule, captions that hold, simple pictures. You do not start from a blank page. You start from a briefing, a frame, a first pass you then correct.
Independents who sell this work typically charge 30€–50€/hour*, or 397€–697€* for a full thirty-day shopfront month.
*Market ranges paid by clients. Read the earnings note.
How it runs, step by step
The point is not to “do AI”. It is to save time on the repetitive stretch, so you can hand a shop a folder they can post from without giving up their evenings.
You learn the thread
Shop aims, content pillars, the month grid, captions, pictures, image rights and platform rules. The frame first. The tool second.
You practise on a real-shaped brief
A typical client file — salon, bakery or small shop. You build an actual calendar, from the first idea through to a folder someone could post from, with a reread.
You put the service on a page
A menu you can adapt, first-contact lines, hourly versus project pricing. The side income starts at the first “yes” from a trader — not before.
Frames, not a blank page
Every step starts with a model: a month grid, a caption shape, a briefing sheet. The tool fills the first pass. Your work is direction — the shop’s tone, the photographs you have a right to use, the claims you will not make. You are never staring at an empty screen. That is how you save hours without handing over filler.
What shops pay for this work
Observed ranges — what clients generally pay for these deliverables. Not income promised to the learner.
*Two or three months of this kind, or one keep-up well run, already sit, as a sketch, above the entry price of the studio (297€) — if you actually land the work. Nothing is guaranteed: see the earnings note.

What this studio is — and is not
Worth reading before you write
- This is training, not a job offer and not a promise of clients.
- You need real practice hours before you can put the service in front of a shop with a straight face.
- Finding shops depends on your own knocking and the local market: nothing is automatic.
- The rates quoted are what clients generally pay, not income guaranteed to you.
- The studio is followed at a distance. There is no weekly room on Fleet Street to attend.
