Basic Packaging strategy question

I have a simple project that I want to package to put it on another machine but everything I have read so far about packaging ends up putting the whole install alongside with 'packages' - typically in .../site-packages.
This seems a strange place to launch an app from!
So, if I have an app with a main.py entry point is it ok for everything to be in .../site-packages/myproject?
Or, should I put everything except main.py in a package and then copy main.py wherever I want and use PIP to install the package containing the rest of the app?
simple example which ends up with needing to run:
python /usr/local/lib/site_packages/myproject/main.py:
myproject
setup.py
myproject
__init__.py
main.py
utils.py
config.py
Is this the right way to go?
Thanks
Bill
