I work with self employed professionals  (eg coaches and consultants).
 I am interested in when self employed professionals in the USA would
mainly take thier hoidlays during the June to August period.  If I
deal with self employed professionals, when can I expect my business
to be slow because a large proportion of the self employed
professionals in the USA are on holiday.
I live in Australia and hence my lack of knowledge about the USA

The week of July 4th will likely be very quiet, as this is the
Independence Day holiday in the US, and a whole lot of folks take
vacation around this time.

Also, many schools are still in session until mid-=June, so vacations
don't start in earnest until after that.

Other than that, vacations are pretty much evenly strewn across the
summer months, so I can't think of one week likely to be more quiet
than the next.


Does that help?

This is a difficult question.  Where in the US?  In Maine and the far
north US, in June its still pretty slow, but down in Florida its busy.
 In the high country in Colorado its slower in June but busy in
Arizona.  The areas that are still cool in the early summer (Maine,
New Hampshire, Vermont, northern states) are slower because it is
chilly at night.  Places like Florida and the south are busy most of
the summer.

2-4 a.m. is generally very quiet
