The problem with so many of these, what are effectively, personal services going back to the dot-com bubble is that they're effectively luxury goods for most people.

And unless they actually need them for some reason (lack of mobility, don't have a car, etc.) most people don't buy a lot of unsubsidized personal services. They don't have gardeners, lawn care, drivers, etc. Some do but it can be hard to build a business out of just them.
