Most businesses that are one-off type businesses tend not to work well. Uber works well because you will use it often enough and is basically a similar model to other transportation services like Bus and Train transit. A lot of businesses require subscription or other predictable recurring revenue to truly work. Even golf courses, bowling alleys, heating and air repair companies, bug terminators, advertising, etc. tend to rely on recurring revenue as the major source of revenue. Even restaurants and bars rely on recurring revenue. You show me a restaurant or bar without regulars and I'll show you a restaurant or bar about to go out of business.
