While there are no specific qualifications required to become an advertising copywriter, a degree in English, journalism or marketing is highly desirable.
A course in mass communication is helpful as it teaches you basic concepts of copywriting; communication, campaigning and storyboarding methods; social media integration techniques; brand management and marketing planning along with demo sessions, practical examples and case studies.
