- aeturnum 7y agoThere are many, many seasonal businesses. Ski resorts, for instance.
- dx87 7y agoThose basically get run by a skeleton crew during the off season. My dad lived in a town in Alaska that had skiing and hiking tourism as its primary money maker, and he said that during the off season, it becomes a ghost town with only things like grocery/convenience stores and gast stations being the only places that stay running.

- Konnstann 7y agoA lot of the ski resorts I've been to have mountain biking, golf, and other sports in the off-season, as well as basically doing no maintenance and costing very little money to run outside of the winter months.
- ses1984 7y agoGee, I don't know, ask any other seasonal business how they do it.
- viscanti 7y agoI noticed a lot of people using scooters and bikes when I visited Venice Beach in December. There appear to be markets where they're used year round.
- jayd16 7y agoIf you're Uber, you have other transportation products to offset that in the winter months.
- leetcrew 7y ago4-5 months is a bit of an exaggeration in most coastal areas of the US. where I live it still isn't super cold and there are still people out using scooters. the range does suffer a bit at these temperatures, but not enough to make them totally unviable.
