It's a dream that Michael Nemeroff, the co-founder and CEO of PrintFly, RushOrderTees.com's parent company, couldn't have imagined when he started 14 years ago alongside his brother and sister in his parents' Huntington Valley garage. Since then, Nemeroff, who's never received a high school diploma, and his siblings, Jordan and Alexis, have grown PrintFly into a multi-million company now based in Philadelphia, with a passion for the city and no plans on moving anytime soon. 'We started in 2002 with one machine, one heater, and we had no skill or talent in the industry,' he said. 'What I realized right away was that almost 70 percent of our customers came to us because another company hadn't followed through on what they promised them.'
