qualifications

As with most things in life, the more qualifications that you have the better. The better and more appropriate your qualifications are will increase your chances of success. That said, you do not need any qualifications at all to start an ad agency business. Clients are not interested in what you have learned in university, they just need to see what you can do for them. So you might want to create an impressive website with examples of all previous work. Including testimonials from satisfied customers.

At first, you will not have any customers. If you also have no qualifications and no experience, then you are in a tough but not impossible situation. If this is the case, you must have some reason for wanting to start in this business. You must have some skills that will help you to get a start and succeed. You may need to do some work for very low cost or even free initially. This will give you examples of your work and testimonials that you can take to future paying clients.

Running a business of any type requires skills that you need to have already in place or learn very, very quickly if you want your business to survive. If you have drive and a burning desire to create a successful business, then the skills and knowledge will come naturally. Sure you will make mistakes just like all the best entrepreneurs but how you handle those mistakes and learn from them will make the difference between success and the "f" word. Business qualifications may help you when it comes to asking for financial assistance. However, a good track record in business will count for far more.

This business is all about selling ideas. So you need good inter personal skills.

To summarize, you need no qualifications but many skills.
