Yes, get industry experience! You have to be pretty special to be just a software developer with no domain knowledge who can somehow make something more valuable than the bazillion other just-a-software-developers out there. I sell fairly high priced software to companies and I'm doing fine. Though I'm kind of lucky in how I got into it and by now most of my domain knowledge has come from my previous customers asking for things.
