Today we’d like to introduce you to Sharday Mayes.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Sharday. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
In 2016, I decided I would buy a t-shirt press machine and make my own t-shirts for my daughter’s school events, my social bike club, and whatever else events I deemed worthy of needing a special t-shirt for. I would cut out the middle man and make and sell my own t-shirts…A few here and there would be for fun and may also put a few dollars in my pocket…so I thought.
By the end of 2016, I had not made or sold one single t-shirt. Who knew how to work the settings on the machines and how to make a t-shirt look neat enough to sell or even to give away?
With the help of a friend and YouTube in 2017, I was in business! Word of mouth spread and business began to bloom.
2 years later in February of 2019, PressedTees Houston was birthed. PressedTees Houston provides custom T-shirt items for schools, youth sports organizations, social groups, and local businesses throughout the Houston and surrounding areas. Pressed Tees Houston now has an online store where a collection of t-shirts are available for purchase.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
It has truly been a roller coaster ride on the path to being a business owner. There have been several twists and turns financially, also failure to provide good quality work, along with failed business relationships….All things necessary and in turned transform me into an rising entrepreneur and business woman

If you had to go back in time and start over, would you have done anything differently?
In order to succeed, you must fail. Adversity along with trial and error yields knowledge to improve, refine skills, and achieve greater success. I would not have done anything differently.
