Business model

Designing unique and profitable products and services.
Digital agencies ー like other types of professional services ー sell their knowledge, skills, and abilities to clients who need online and systems help, normally in the marketing space. Agencies deliver value to their clients (both the outcome product as well as the service interaction) and recoup it through payment for those services and product.
When defining a product, you normal talk about the features and value the purchaser gets. What's funky with digital agencies is that the product outcome is highly dependent on the client: their needs, what they want and expect, and how they feel about the outcome, regardless of its actual worth.
