Parnassah Network, the organization that is at the forefront of providing the tools for Yidden of all ages and in all stages of their quest for a dignified Parnassah, has just announced the second in a series of “full-day seminars”, each covering a specific area of business to better assist people across particular industries and modes of business. The first seminar, which was sold out, covered the topic of “Launching a Business” and was extremely successful.
The intensive seminar, entitled “From Amazon to Ebay To Zulily” is geared specifically for people focused on the online marketplace as a means to earn a Parnassah. The seminar is geared to beginners who are just dabbling in this areana as well as to those already earning a Parnassah in this way, who seek to sharpen their skills and learn more effective tactics and strategies. After all, the online marketplace is constantly evolving and there is always more tolearn and new knowledge to catch up with.
The seminar will cover an all-encompassing range of topics relating to launching and maintaining an online marketplace business to utilize platforms such as Amazon and eBay, and the scores of other platforms currently available, to successfully generate income. This can be done as a a supplemental income or as a full-time Parnassah. “People who attend this seminar will walk away with a lot of realistic tools and be better positioned to succeed in this field” says R’ Duvi Honig, founder of Parnassah Network, which spearheaded these seminars. “Additionally, the people they network with at the seminar and the presenters they will get to know as mentors beyond the actual seminar are a priceless addition to the actual value of the seminar”
The presenters at this seminar were hand-picked by the Parnassah Network team to include successful business people who have intimate knowledge – and success- in the online marketplace selling arena. These people keenly understand the ins and outs of the online marketplace and are able to share their experience and knowledge with others looking to chart similar paths for themselves. The presenters will be available to answer questions and mentor seminar registrants beyond the day of the actual seminar. Having someone to call upon and reach out to as you navigate the often murky world of online marketplace selling is a most valuable resource and can often be the difference between real success and failure.
The presenters include Ami Bielinki, managing director of Cherristone interactive, Sam Brownstein, builder of several thriving Amazon businesses, Mordy Glaser, president, M.C. Glaser Company and Chaim Sofer, marketing strategist, Relsmart Marketing.
Some of the many topics that will be covered throughout the day are: Setting up Shop -How to plan for starting a business? What products should I sell? How do I source a product?

This sounds like a very reliable way to make a parnassah — for the people running the workshop. For those attending, it should be emphasized that there are no “shortcuts”. Like the spam ads that come into your mailboxes every day, and which promise to “earn thousands from the comfort of your living room!”, very few of the people that go into this succeed in bringing in a dependable, respectable income. A few make it big, but most either end up sitting with no income, and there are those that lose big, after big bets gone wrong.
It is ludicrous to think that one can make a serious, dependable, income without working very hard. Of course hard work by itself is not enough, but there is no successful business person out there that hasn’t invested hours and days (and nights) and years of their life into doing what they’re doing. This seminar advertisement makes it sounds like you can go to this, open a website and bang, bang, the dollars will start rolling in. It is wrong to perpetuate this horrible attitude which has certainly ruined more lives than it’s helped.
