If the goal is to get into an already established business, then a portfolio is an absolute must, and can surpass the requirement for any specific training or educational degree.
If the goal is to start a Photography business, then the process is really no different than starting any other business. A sound business plan should be the first step, and it should include a SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats), especially if investors are needed. A business plan will also help the entrepreneur remain objective and goal oriented instead of succumbing to emotions.
Customer service skills and some basic contracts (templates are freely available) will help in negotiations and retaining customers - it is always cheaper to keep the customers you have instead of advertising to get more.
Lastly, camera gear and the knowledge and skill to use them effectively will help to gain and retain clients.
