What degree do you need to own a business?
I know you don’t technically need one but I was wondering what kind would help. I want to someday own a clothing store and I want to know exactly what I’m doing when I go into it with money management and knowing whats going on with everything. I don’t want to be in school forever and I was wondering what kind of degree in business would help with owning a business.
I’d say business management. You don’t need a degree to run a business, but from what you’re saying you want, I’d say that.
MBA is the most popular. It’s an abbreviation for Master of Business Administration.
IYou can take many business classes separately too, if you don’t want to obtain a degree.
Also try the SBA (Small Business Administration). They often offer reseources for starting your own business. You can also try the Department of Commerce and ask if there are any "Start-up" programs or other resources to help you..

What type of education do you need to start a business? Many people are under the impression that you are required to have a MBA, or some big fancy degree from an expensive school to be able to start their own business. I am here to tell you that this is not the case.
While a degree of some sort might prove that you have a well-rounded education, and have the determination to achieve a goal; it does not mean that you are going to have all of the tools that are necessary to operate a business. In my opinion, to start a business that is going to give you the success that you are striving for, you need 3 basic things.
1. A Sound Business Model:
You may be the best business person on the planet, but if you do not have a sound business model, you will not be successful. Find a business that offers a legitimate product or service. That product or service needs to have a high demand. Does the product or service have a high profit margin? If not, is the demand high enough to support the increased number of sales you are going to need to attain? You also need a business that has little competition. If there is competition, is there a clear cut way for you to be able to set yourself apart to attract customers?
2. Training:
While starting your own business does not require a degree, it does require training. Odds are, you don’t already know everything that there is to know about the product or service you are offering. If you have never ran a business before, you will need training to help you operate the day to day functions of your business. Training and continued support is key when you are new to operating a business.
3. Strong Work Ethic:
Starting and maintaining a business takes a lot of stamina, especially in the beginning. You are going to put in a ton of work. This can be taxing on you, and you are going to have to depend on your motivation to see you through until you are successful. There will be times that you might want to give it all up, and these times will test your character. So many people give up inches before the finish line. Work hard, see it through, and the rewards will come.

PGDBM or BBA or MBA are such business management degrees which are mostly preferred by those who thinks like you. Now the most important thing is which stream will ultimately benefit you? So degree in marketing or sales would be the best way to opt for.
Apart from these things, if you are intelligent enough to take business decisions and have strong ideas to advertise your business and customer dealings then you must not have any such degree or diploma. The real life experience will teach you all the things ultimately.
