How does one get started freelancing coming from a 9-5 job?

For the past 7 years I've done nothing but work for companies doing everything from video game dev to writing various network and web services. I will be moving out of the Bay Area to an area of the US with far less opportunity for tech jobs.

I would very much like to learn how to get started finding remote work to do, either through companies or directly with clients. I'm also more of a backend dev, and probably need to find someone great at UI/UX/front-end dev to partner with.

What is the best way to go about finding both clients and partners to start a freelance web dev business with?
