Customers of Your Business Software helped Cuban launch his own business, MicroSolutions. MicroSolutions started off as a software distributor and system integrator. Among the first innovations, the business released were Carbon Copy, Lotus Notes, and CompuServe. One of the biggest customers of the business was Perot Systems.
On July 7, 1982, Cuban moved to Dallas, Texas, where he worked as a bartender at Elan on Greenville Avenue and then as a salesperson for Your Business Software, one of Dallas’s first PC software retailers. He was let go less than a year later after meeting with a client to solicit new business rather than opening the store.
