Normally I'd expect "from models import Whatever" from manage.py shell to to
give me an "ImportError: No module named models". The fact that yours
doesn't implies you've either got a models.py file in the same directory as
your settings.py or you've put an individual app directory on your
PYTHONPATH. Neither seems like a particularly good idea. Instead use:
>>> from appname.models import Business
(where 'appname' is replaced with your actual app name) and then you won't
get an error when Django tries to figure out the app label associated with
the model.
