Found this pretty comprehensive list of business models @ https://gist.github.com/ndarville/4295324. They're mostly related to the web but if you wanna add other models (even those found in the offline world), feel free to do so.
A few extra ones that I though of are:
MLM - Amway
Product manufacturing
Product wholesaling
Franchise
Crowdfunding - Kickstarter
Conference Hosting - AdTech
Traditional insurance
Rental (per item) - chegg.com, apartments
Skill as a Service - agency (e.g. web development/seo), consultants, mechanics
Knowledge as a Service - Brokers
Exchanges - coinbase.com
Royalties - publishing (record label, game/book publishing)
Lending/Investing (for interest) - hard money lending, bonds
Investing (for equity) - venture capital, angel investing, incubator
