Selling Clothes, Selling Software, Selling Cloud

What does selling clothes to Macy's have to do with selling software, and cloud services, to enterprises? Everything. Earlier today, I was speaking with my brother-in-law, entrepreneur and consultant Kevin Pearl. Before starting a firm to improve capture of billing time for attorneys, accountants and consultants; before serving as a turnaround consultant; before building a firm that sold software to manage venture capital portfolios; Kevin ran a firm that sold clothing to large well-known clothing retailers.
