Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas - Thursday, September 3 at 10AM EST
On Thursday, September 3, John Martin of Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas Franchise Opportunity Meets with Franchise Interviews.
For over 10 years, The Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas has provided a unique combination of theatre and restaurant, showing first-run and independent films while offering in-theatre food and beverage service that includes an extensive menu of freshly prepared appetizers, sandwiches, pizzas and salads as well as a wide selection of hand-crafted beers and great wines. We are the only concept in the growing cinema-eatery category that is franchising.
The typical Alamo Drafthouse Cinema has four to ten screens that resemble traditional movie theatres except rows of seats alternate with bench-style tables. Individual theatre seating ranges from 75 to 320 seats. First-come, first-serve seating begins approximately 45 minutes prior to show time. Customers are encouraged to arrive early to enjoy the pre-show entertainment. Instead of a barrage of advertising, a variety of short films are shown that change on a regular basis, some with tie-ins to the feature film.
“We're proud of the fact that we don't show any advertising,” President and CEO John Martin said. “People don't want to pay for a movie and then be bombarded with 15 minutes of dancing candy and fountain drinks.”
Once seated, customers order from the menu and the friendly wait staff brings the food to their seats. Customers can continue to order throughout the movie by writing their requests using the paper and pencils on their table and placing it on the clips attached to the table. Waiters quietly collect and deliver those orders without distracting from the movie. All tabs are closed before the film ends.

Franchise Interviews 's radio show is dedicated to educating & motivating aspiring entrepreneurs on franchising and features interviews with experts. Hosted by Marty McDermott & Don Johnson. You can listen on BlogTalkRadio.com, Thursday's 10A.M EST.

August 13 at 10AM EST: Instant Tax Service
Fez has an incredible story: He emigrated to the US from Ethiopia when he
was just a kid. When he began college at the University of Cincinnati, he
needed a way to earn a living that fit with his class schedule. He was
working on a degree in finance and accounting, and felt that doing taxes
would be a great fit. He could work on his skills, build a client base, and
make a little money during the short tax season. So with the help of some
credit cards and donations from friends and family, Fez opened his first tax
business.
Within five years, Fez had 26 locations in the Cincinnati, OH area. In 1999
- realizing he needed more startup capital to build the business he
envisioned - he sold the business to Jackson Hewitt and used the money from
the proceeds to found Instant Tax Service in Dayton, OH. Fez had to start
all over again, but he'd learned a lot from his first business experience.
This time, it took him just seven years to grow his business from a single
storefront to the 4th largest tax company in the U.S.
Today, Instant Tax Service has over 1,200 locations in 34 states.
Entrepreneur Magazine ranked it the #1 new franchise in the country this
year for the second year in a row. It's consistently ranked among the
National Minority Franchising Initiative's Top 50 franchises for minorities
and was recently included among the Franchise Times' Fast 55.
