This Thanksgiving, I am especially grateful for my family. Warm wishes to all for a joy-filled Thanksgiving!
Searching for strategies to increase revenue at your FEC? Consider incorporating retail! Retail diversifies revenue streams, offering a consistent income flow that goes beyond ticket sales and food. For FECs, retail is more than just an added bonus; it's a game-changer!
I was recently a guest on the podcast Conversations on Leadership with Dr. Dave, where we talked about one of my favorite topics, core values. Check out this clip from Conversations on Leadership or listen to the full podcast here: timmurphyceo.com/inthenews
Proudly leading the FEC industry for 35+ years, I've worked with 150+ brands worldwide. From turnarounds to acquisitions, my expertise is unmatched. Learn more at timmurphyceo.com
If you're planning to attend IAAPA North America this month you won't want to miss the panel I'll be speaking on with Anil Rao and Jeremy Hoyum, Food and Beverage as Brand Cornerstones. 📍 IAAPA North America Expo 🗓️ Monday, November 18 ⏰ 8:30 am - 9:30 am
Having led and consulted on turnaround efforts, process improvements, joint ventures and more in the entertainment and food and beverage industries, I am uniquely poised to assist you in determining what the best next step is for your FEC. Don’t delay - contact me today.

After an incredible 4+ years as CEO of Boomers Parks, it's time for me to transition. Proud of transforming bankrupt parks into profitable assets and excited for what's next in the FEC industry. Stay tuned for updates on my journey!
Considering opening a franchise? Space and location are just two factors to consider before signing an agreement. Feeling inspired to learn more about franchising? With my knowledge and experience, I'm here to help. Schedule time on my Calendly today at timmurphyceo.com.
The global family/indoor entertainment centers market was valued at US$ 41 billion in 2022 and is projected to exhibit growth at a CAGR of 12.2% and reach US$ 130 billion by the end of 2032. The US accounts for a 31.3% share of the global indoor FECs.
Ready to join the world of franchising? With 221,000 new jobs expected by 2024, now is the time to explore this thriving industry. From Texas to Florida, franchise expansion is on the rise, and Boomers is at the forefront of it all.
While summer may have come to an end, the heat continues to impact FECs across the US. Don't resort to shutting down - plan and prepare for profitability while keeping guests and staff safe. Offer a “Rainy Day Special.” Have hydration stations stocked with cold drinks.
As CEO of Boomers Parks and someone who has worked in the FEC industry for many years, franchising an FEC is worth the investment. Frankly, I believe FECs are one of the top businesses to franchise. Let's talk more about franchising an FEC and what it really looks like.
My career has led me on an incredible journey, starting at a young age working in my family's FEC in Cape May, New Jersey. Now as the CEO of Boomers Parks, I'm focused on franchising, food and beverage optimization, and creating unforgettable experiences for our guests.
I recently wrapped up a trip to Seattle and LA! From meetings to meals, ball games to business expos, it was non-stop hard work and fun.
MFV Expositions shared 6 key insights into the future of franchising trends in their 2030 Outlook. One that stands out? Enhanced Customer Experiences. Boomers is currently at the forefront of this trend by delivering personalized, engaging, and more to attract customers.
Thinking about investing in a franchise? Boomers Parks may be the franchise for you. As an entrepreneur, you will be working for yourself, plus the franchisor has made and learned form their mistakes so you don’t have to. Learn more at timmurphyceo.com
