If going to college isn’t hard enough, have you tried running a business at the same time? Raymond Lei is one such young entrepreneur that is doing just that.

For Raymond it all started with a t-shirt order. As he shopped around at different printers it soon became obvious that all of his options were well out of the range of what he had wanted to pay. Not willing to give up so easily he soon found an opportunity in all of that frustration. After 2 years of hard work Raymond created ooShirts, a discount custom t-shirt business.

ooShirts is an online t-shirt printing business. We sell custom t-shirts to groups and organizations who want an easy, low-cost solution.

I called some local companies to gather information, and found that in order to make the shirts affordable, I had to either settle for a much simpler design (we had to change our 3 color logo into a black-and-white logo). Not wanting to compromise, I searched online, and found that the online companies were also too expensive.
