Do you need a College Degree to run a successful business?

[Ojonuyo]

A college degree is not compulsory to start up a business. Although, it depends on the type of business. Most business currently just need employees who have competent skills and not just a college degree without being able to prove it.

I think a business degree is definitely not an essential condition for business. As I would see it, products and items are a higher priority than business degrees.
I recommend you to pick an extremely inventive, selective, and non-rivalry products to sell.

I might want to close by saying that joining in or not going to school is consistently needy upon one's character type and vocation possibilities.

While I am not encouraging everybody to dropout, what I am certainly proposing is to survey your needs before you attend a university and not because everybody is.

I agree with you. In any type of business, you need to be smart. Also bearing in mind that not everyone will succeed in a business so whether you have a qualification or not, it doesn't matter.

You are right on the lack of education of successful business owners. But most of the young business owners I see here are college graduates and some are even taking up a masters degree. Times are a-changing maybe because of the digital technology that entrepreneurs need a higher education.

 

[Richard92]

A lot of people have managed to run a successful business without a college degree but this does not mean you can also do it. You need to be exceptionally talented like them

You only need experience and skill to run a business you do not need a college degree to run any business all that is required is your capital and your knowledge about the business.

It doesn't mean that one who is going into business will be a stark illiterate. It might not attain the highest level in education but its still business wise and very comfortable doing business with advanced techs.

One do not necessarily need any college certification to perform well in a business. A good knowledge and education on the business can suffix ,however it will be good to acquire some level in education to help the person do well in the business

It is not necessary required to have any e College degree in order to start a business. But having a business degree will surely help to utilise your knowledge in practical marketing situations. I have also seen many businessman who rare not that good in economics, but still earning good amount from their business.

 

[Psalmseen]

This answer to this question is a big and capital NO. No college degree nor formal education is needed to make a successful business. The factors associated with a successful business is beyond this

Despite the fact that numerous individuals run effective organizations without going to college, numerous individuals battle to rouse themselves to do an online course or night classes. In the event that you don't comprehend the nuts and bolts of promoting and deals, you are at an extraordinary inconvenience in business. However, if you have proper education you are one step ahead compared to your other business rivals.

Exactly education gives you an advantage over other competition and it also gives you the boldness to go to and associate with others of higher status

This is exactly my view. Education definitely is very important and it is always good for any businessman to be knowledgeable and understand simple business ethics.

Yes you got it. Education also helps in increasing your self esteem. I saw a case of a business man, he had really made it in his field and was doing really well but he had this fear of going on business meeting and trips with other business men because he was not educated. He always sends representatives.

You are right about the success of the business that education is not the solution. However, a higher education can give the business owner confidence in dealing with people especially when the business is related to banks or big manufacturing corporations. It is a disadvantage to be uneducated when your business has grown much.

Very true, there is someone very close to me, she is very successful in her networking business, she knows how to talk to people and make them join but anytime she was to hold a seminar,she always get scared. She ends up hiring others to do it for her. She feels she is not good enough cause of her education

 

[Melanie M]

I don’t think so. Not when it comes to this. If you can read people, know exactly what to say to them, get them interested in you, or your product ... you can be successful.
And that isn’t something you can learn from books. It’s either something you’re born with, or something you’ve been taught from a very young age. (My dad owns a hardware store.) He taught me how to mess with people.

For general people, college degree is must but for exceptionally talented people college degree is not a requirement. Now, tell me are you a general person or exceptionally talented individual.

I have seen a lot of people who do not have any college degree and they have a good successful business to their name. The most important thing is the knowledge and training that you have on the business.

I completely agree with you that a college degree is not an essential condition for a business because there are so many businesses in my country there by the owners of these businesses do not have any educational qualification whatsoever and they're making it fine. There is a particular tribe in my country that specialises in business and most of these people do not have any educational qualification.
